Amyloid Peptide Nanofibrils Promote Efficient Neurotransmitter Oxidation and Serve as Scaffolds for Melanin Production

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Short amyloid peptides can act as efficient catalysts of neurotransmitter degradation, and libraries of short peptides can be used to identify core fragments present in larger proteins that might be linked to neurodegenerative diseases. Abstract We have shown that de novo designed peptides self‐assemble in the presence of copper to create ...

Serotonin, serotonin receptors and their actions in insects

open access: yesNeurotransmitter, 2015
Serotonin is an ancient monoamine neurotransmitter, biochemically derived from tryptophan. It is most abundant in the gastrointestinal tract, but is also present throughout the rest of the body of animals and can even be found in plants and fungi. Serotonin is especially famous for its contributions to feelings of well-being and happiness.

Dissimilar Reactions and Enzymes for Psilocybin Biosynthesis in Inocybe and Psilocybe Mushrooms

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Mushrooms have learned twice independently how to make the iconic magic mushroom natural product psilocybin. This article introduces the enzymes of the second pathway, found in a fiber cap mushroom. Curiously, the two pathways do not share any reaction, nor do the enzymes show a close relationship, but both pathways proceed via 4‐hydroxytryptamine as a

The synergistic effect of anticholinergic burden and depression on fall risk in older persons

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Both anticholinergic burden (ACB) and depression are known to increase fall risk in older persons, next to increasing morbidity and mortality. However, the effect of depression on fall risk associated with ACB is unclear. This is relevant because several antidepressants have anticholinergic effects to some extent.

Trends in analgesia prescribing in primary care in Ireland and England between 2014 and 2022: A repeated cross‐sectional study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Analgesic medicines are an important component of pain management, with different medicines carrying different risks and benefits. The aim of this study was to examine trends in analgesic prescribing in Ireland and England between 2014 and 2022. Methods Monthly data on medicines prescribed and dispensed in primary care were used. For Ireland, data

Trends in drug–drug interaction prevalence and longitudinal associations with health outcomes in the older community‐dwelling population: Findings from The Irish LongituDinal study on Ageing

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims We estimate trends in severe drug–drug interaction (DDI) prevalence and examine longitudinal associations between DDI exposure and health outcomes (emergency department [ED] visits, quality‐of‐life [QoL] and functional decline) over approximately 10‐years in the older community‐dwelling population in Ireland.
