Enhancement of tetrodotoxin‐induced axonal blockade by adenosine, adenosine analogues, dibutyryl cyclic AMP and methylxanthines in the frog sciatic nerve [PDF]
The effects of adenosine, adenosine analogues (N6‐cyclohexyladenosine (CHA), L‐N6‐phenylisopropyladenosine (L‐PIA), D‐N6‐phenylisopropyladenosine (D‐PIA), N6‐methyladenosine and 2‐chloroadenosine), adenine, inosine, hypoxanthine, cyclic AMP and its analogue the dibutyryl cyclic AMP (db cyclic AMP), and methylxanthines (theophylline, caffeine and ...

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update
Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

First Report on the Occurrence of Tetrodotoxins in Bivalve Mollusks in The Netherlands
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is traditionally associated with seafood from tropical regions, but recently TTX was detected in bivalve mollusks in more temperate European waters. In The Netherlands it was therefore decided to monitor TTX in shellfish harvested from

ABSTRACT Background Dopamine (DA) exerts complex concentration‐dependent effects on gastrointestinal motility. Although its inhibitory action through D2‐like receptors is well‐established, the mechanisms underlying its excitatory effects remain elusive.

This publication describes how R. B. Woodward and Roald Hoffmann crafted their masterpiece publications. Illustrations include Woodward's first draft of the famous “Violations There are none. Nor can violations be expected of so fundamental a principle of maximum bonding.” Original but discarded text shows the stepwise paths toward the W‐H masterpieces.

Abstract Background and Purpose Guanylate cyclase‐C (GC‐C) is the receptor for endogenous (uro)guanylin peptides, bacterial toxins and pharmacological analogues. Receptor activation leads to intestinal fluid loss, but also activates an antiproliferative pathway and is a promising target in colorectal cancer therapy.

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
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‐

Abstract Catecholamines are classically viewed as neuronal transmitters and adrenal hormones; however, accumulating evidence demonstrates that sources other than nerve fibres and adrenal medulla play a fundamental role in local organ regulation. Physiological paradoxes, such as preserved organ function after denervation or transplantation, challenge a ...

Disrupted Vestibular Nuclei Neuron Development in a Chick Model for Congenital Vestibular Disorders
ABSTRACT Children with syndromic, congenital vestibular disorders (CVDs) form a sac‐like inner ear with missing or truncated semicircular canals and experience delayed motor development with lifelong challenges to maintain posture and balance. How the abnormal inner ear affects downstream central vestibular neural circuitry has not been investigated ...
