EphB1 Receptor Blockade Augments Morphine Antinociception via Inhibiting GRK2‐Mediated µ‐Opioid Receptor Internalization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Administration of opioids activates ephrinB2‐EphB1 receptor signaling. Activated EphB1 receptors induce GRK2‐mediated phosphorylation of MOR at Ser375, which initiates the internalization of MOR and reduces opioid antinociception at the behavioral level. ABSTRACT Opioids are the primary treatment for severe pain in clinical practice.

Serotonin Transporter Gene (SLC6A4) Polymorphism and Mucosal Serotonin Levels in Southeastern Iranian Patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Middle East Journal of Digestive Diseases, 2017
BACKGROUND Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a digestive system disorder with an unknown etiology. Serotonin has a key role in the secretion and motility of the intestine.

Serotonin transporter gene polymorphisms: a case-control study [PDF]

Brazilian Dental Journal, 2012
Considerable evidence indicates that serotonergic mechanisms, particularly the serotonin transporter, are involved in alcoholism and tobacco use and are influenced by polymorphism of the promoter region of 5HTT (5-HTTLPR). As alcohol and tobacco consumption have been implicated in the pathogenesis of oral cancer, the purpose of this study was to ...

Gut Microbiota‐Derived Indole‐3‐Acetaldehyde Contributes to the Disease‐Alleviating Effects of Kurarinone in Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Kurarinone ameliorates EAE via the gut microbiota‐indole‐3‐acetaldehyde‐AhR axis. Kurarinone reshapes gut microbiota and increases Akkermansia muciniphila, which promotes intestinal indole‐3‐acetaldehyde production. Indole‐3‐acetaldehyde crosses the intestinal barrier, activates AhR in CD4+ T cells, upregulates SOCS1/3, inhibits JAK2 and STAT3/4 ...

The Role of Glutamatergic and Dopaminergic Genes in Resistant Schizophrenia: A Systematic Review

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Psychosis is a heterogeneous disorder, with approximately one‐third of patients experiencing treatment resistance, predominantly among individuals diagnosed with Schizophrenia. Treatment‐resistant schizophrenia (TRS) may stem from a distinct biological signature, involving abnormalities in the dopaminergic and glutamatergic systems.

Serotonin, amygdala and fear: assembling the puzzle

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2016
The fear circuitry orchestrates defense mechanisms in response to environmental threats. This circuitry is evolutionarily crucial for survival, but its dysregulation is thought to play a major role in the pathophysiology of psychiatric conditions in ...

Impulsivity and the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism in a non-clinical sample. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Impulsivity has been associated with serotonergic system functions. However, few researchers have investigated the relationship between a polymorphism in the promoter of the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTTLPR) and the different components ...

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Hypocretinergic interactions with the serotonergic system regulate REM sleep and cataplexy

Nature Communications, 2020
Narcolepsy is characterized by a sudden loss of muscle tone (cataplexy) similar to REM sleep and is caused by hypocretin deficiency. Here, the authors show that deleting the serotonin transporter gene in hypocretin knockout mice suppresses cataplexy ...
