Tetrodotoxin and the state-of-the-art progress of its associated analytical methods
Frontiers in MicrobiologyTetrodotoxin (TTX), which is found in various marine organisms, including pufferfish, shellfish, shrimp, crab, marine gastropods, and gobies, is an effective marine toxin and the cause of many seafood poisoning incidents. Owing to its toxicity and threat

Case of Paraesthesia Developed After Consuming Pufferfish
Türk Yoğun Bakim Derneği Dergisi, 2021 Pufferfish, also known globally as ballfish, globefish and toadfish, is a fish species belonging to the Tetrodontiformes family. Following the consumption of this fish, tetrodotoxin (TTX), a type of neurotoxin, causes a rare type of intoxication.

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Purpose The neural mechanisms underlying effects of acute stress on memory are poorly understood. We demonstrated previously that acute stress produces identical spatial memory deficits in male and female mice but through distinct molecular mechanisms, with females exhibiting up‐regulation of N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor

Peripheral targets for neuropathic pain
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Neuropathic pain represents a significant clinical challenge, with still limited pharmacological approaches to symptomatic relief. This review focuses on molecular targets implicated in neuropathic pain, particularly those involved in peripheral mechanisms. Using the IUPHAR/BPS database of biological targets, their occurrence together with ‘neuropathic
