Modulation of sensory neuron mechanotransduction by PKC- and nerve growth factor-dependent pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Many sensations of pain are evoked by mechanical stimuli, and in inflammatory conditions, sensitivity to such stimuli is commonly increased. Here we used cultured sensory neurons as a model of the peripheral terminal to investigate the effects of ...

Comparing self‐reported race and genetic ancestry for identifying potential differentially methylated sites in endometrial cancer: insights from African ancestry proportions using machine learning models

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, Volume 19, Issue 12, Page 3596-3612, December 2025.
Integrating ancestry, differential methylation analysis, and machine learning, we identified robust epigenetic signature genes (ESGs) and Core‐ESGs in Black and White women with endometrial cancer. Core‐ESGs (namely APOBEC1 and PLEKHG5) methylation levels were significantly associated with survival, with tumors from high African ancestry (THA) showing ...

Human Galectins Induce Conversion of Dermal Fibroblasts into Myofibroblasts and Production of Extracellular Matrix: Potential Application in Tissue Engineering and Wound Repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Members of the galectin family of endogenous lectins are potent adhesion/growth-regulatory effectors. Their multi-functionality opens possibilities for their use in bioapplications. We studied whether human galectins induce the conversion of human dermal

Single‐cell landscape of sex‐specific drivers of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract INTRODUCTION We investigated sex‐specific gene expression associations with the neuropathology and cognitive manifestation of Alzheimer's disease (AD) leveraging single‐nucleus transcriptomic datasets including 2.84 million nuclei from the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC).

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2025/26: Ion channels

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue S1, Page S152-S241, December 2025.
The Concise Guide to Pharmacology 2025/26 marks the seventh edition in this series of biennial publications in the British Journal of Pharmacology. Presented in landscape format, the guide provides a comparative overview of the pharmacology of drug target families. The concise nature of the Concise Guide refers to the style of presentation, being clear,

Regional differences in store-operated Ca2+ entry in the epithelium of the intact human lens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
An elevated level of Ca2+ is an important factor in cataract, yet precisely how Ca2+ enters the lens is unknown. Lens epithelial cells contain a range of G-protein–coupled receptors and receptor tyrosine kinases that induce increases in intracellular Ca2+

Transduction Mechanisms for Cold Temperature in Mouse Trigeminal and Vagal Ganglion Neurons Innervating Different Peripheral Organs

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 241, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim To elucidate the molecular mechanism of cold sensing by visceral sensory endings, a side‐by‐side characterization of cold‐sensitive (CS) neurons in adult mouse trigeminal (TG) and vagal ganglia (VG) was performed. Methods A combination of physiological, pharmacological, molecular, and genetic tools was employed on trigeminal and vagal ...

TRPV2 Channels Contribute to Stretch-Activated Cation Currents and Myogenic Constriction in Retinal Arterioles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Purpose: Activation of the transient receptor potential channels, TRPC6, TRPM4, and TRPP1 (PKD2), has been shown to contribute to the myogenic constriction of cerebral arteries.

Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs as Modulators of Cation Channels: Fenamates Repurposing in Channelopathies

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 20, Issue 20, October 15, 2025.
Beyond their established role as nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), fenamates (niflumic, flufenamic, mefenamic, meclofenamic, and tolfenamic acids) have recently been identified as modulators of cationic ion channels. This review highlights their differential effects on ion channel activity and explores their potential for repurposing in ...
