Experimental Evidence for Alleviating Nociceptive Hypersensitivity by Single Application of Capsaicin

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2015
The single application of high-concentration of capsaicin has been used as an analgesic therapy of persistent pain. However, its effectiveness and underlying mechanisms remain to be further evaluated with experimental approaches.

Ca2+‐Activated Cl− Channels: Do Bestrophins and TMEM16A Interact?

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Ca2+‐activated Cl– conductances are present in many cell types and are important for regulating membrane potential as well as other cellular functions. TMEM16A is widely accepted as the principal molecular basis for Ca2+‐activated Cl– conductances, but also members of the bestrophin family may be important for some Ca2+‐activated Cl ...

NIR‐II Imaging‐Guided Photothermal Activation of a TRPV4‐Targeted Nanoplatform Delivering Cycloastragenol to Promote Microglia Reprogramming and α‐Synuclein Clearance in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Current therapies for Parkinson's disease (PD) fail to concurrently address α‐synuclein (α‐syn) aggregation and microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation. Herein, we engineer a near‐infrared‐II (NIR‐II) phototheranostic nanoplatform, CAG/FD1080@MM‐aTRPV4, for synergistic regulation of microglial function and real‐time monitoring of PD pathology. We

Protein‐Template Gold Nanoclusters Induce Differentiation and Modify the Functional Properties of Primary Astrocytes

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
The incubation of primary astrocytes with fAuNCs‐BSA induces: (A) long‐term effects including fAuNCs‐BSA internalization, red cell fluorescence, differentiation, upregulation of Ca2+ signaling, Cl‐current, and cell volume regulation. B) Short‐term (200 ms) stimulation with UV LED light increases in Ca2+ signaling and inhibition of K+ current. Astrocyte

Nanomaterial‐Mediated Near‐Infrared Photothermal Neuromodulation for Neurologic Disorders

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
This review summarizes how near‐infrared light activates photothermal nanomaterials to enable noninvasive neuromodulation with high spatiotemporal precision. It elucidates the underlying mechanisms, explores targeted therapeutic applications for neurological disorders, discusses integration with optogenetics and biosensors, and addresses future ...

Opposing Synovial Cannabinoid Receptor Type 2 and Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 Expression in Painful Osteoarthritis

open access: yesCureus
Knee osteoarthritis (kOA) poses a major health challenge worldwide, but current non-surgical treatments have limited long-term success and do not address the underlying disease process. This study explores the complex relationship between the endocannabinoid system (ECS) and the endovanilloid system (EVS) in the synovial membrane of patients with kOA ...

Shear Stress as a Driver of Retinal Müller Glia Survival and Fibrotic Reprogramming

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The retina is highly influenced by mechanical cues such as intraocular fluid movement and blood flow, generating shear stress implicated in both retinal development and pathology. Müller glia, as retinal mechanosensors, are uniquely positioned to respond to such forces.
