Maternal nutrition as a key determinant of placental and developing blood–brain barrier xenobiotic protective functions

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Suboptimal maternal nutrition alters placental and developing blood–brain barrier (BBB) protective function and is associated with increased fetal brain vulnerability. In the placenta, nutritional adversity may reduce the exchange surface area and promote meta‐inflammation, compromising barrier efficiency in a model‐ and context ...

Thioridazine Levels in the Human Eye

open access: yes, 1981
Thioridazine (Mellaril) hydrochloride was found in human retina and choroid by high-performance liquid chromatography. To our knowledge, this report is the first such study to assess quantitatively the presence of thioridazine in the human eye.

Beat‐to‐beat variability of ventricular repolarization reveals sex‐specific instability and proarrhythmic risk

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A mechanistic framework linking sex‐dependent dynamical instability to proarrhythmic risk. Sex‐specific human ventricular models show that upstream modulators, including biological sex, hormones, drugs and heart disease, promote steeper APD restitution in female than male and enhance dynamical instability.

Society for Maternal‐Fetal Medicine Special Statement: Guidance to reduce racial disparities in substance use screening and biological testing in pregnancy at the delivery admission

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 6, November 2026.
Abstract Substance use complicates upward of 10% of US pregnancies. The Society for Maternal‐Fetal Medicine, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and the American Society of Addiction Medicine have jointly recommended universal screening for substance use during pregnancy using a validated tool, without recommending universal ...

Thioridazine inhibits autophagy and sensitizes glioblastoma cells to temozolomide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has a poor prognosis with an overall survival of 14–15 months after surgery, radiation and chemotherapy using temozolomide (TMZ). A major problem is that the tumors acquire resistance to therapy.

Targeting Ca2+ and Mitochondrial Homeostasis by Antipsychotic Thioridazine in Leukemia Cells

open access: yesLife, 2022
Mitochondria have pivotal roles in cellular physiology including energy metabolism, reactive oxygen species production, Ca2+ homeostasis, and apoptosis. Altered mitochondrial morphology and function is a common feature of cancer cells and the regulation ...

MAPK Inhibitor‐Tolerant Persister Cells in Melanoma: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Vulnerabilities

open access: yesCancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 8, Page 2050-2063, August 2026.
Melanoma response to MAPK inhibition progresses from drug‐sensitive cells to drug‐tolerant persister states, which enable survival through adaptive signaling, metabolic rewiring, and phenotypic plasticity. These persister cells serve as an intermediate reservoir from which resistant tumors ultimately emerge. ABSTRACT Though major advancements have been
