Genetics‐Based Targeting Strategies for Precise Neuromodulation
In this Review, the fundamental principles and implementation protocols of genetics‐based precision neuromodulation are first introduced. Then, wireless and low‐invasive strategies based on nano‐transducing materials are highlighted, along with a dissection and analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of representative studies.

The serine capsid protease (CP) catalyzes a crucial process of the alphaviral replication cycle; therefore, it constitutes an interesting therapy target. Herein, the O'nyong‐nyong virus CP profile activity with a specific fluorogenic substrate is analyzed and examines the inhibitory activity of a new series of phosphonic analogs of tryptophan and ...

This review goes beyond the famous MD‐2/TLR4‐mediated recognition of LPS, pointing the attention on other immune detection systems and their impact on human physiology and pathology. Understanding these additional pathways is key for the development of pharmacologically active molecules to modulate the immune response and to conceive new strategies to ...

A polycystin-type transient receptor potential (Trp) channel that is activated by ATP. [PDF]
ATP and ADP are ancient extra-cellular signalling molecules that in Dictyostelium amoebae cause rapid, transient increases in cytosolic calcium due to an influx through the plasma membrane.

Thermosensory Roles of G Protein‐Coupled Receptors and Other Cellular Factors in Animals
Recent studies have revealed GPCR functions in temperature sensation. This article introduces dual thermosensing via GPCRs and TRP channels associated with the intracellular signaling components and cellular factors such as lipid interactions and pH changes, highlighting the complexity of the temperature sensing mechanism.

Molecular mechanisms involved in the generation of calcium signals In insulin secreting cells. [PDF]
Intracellular Ca 2+ regulates diverse cellular functions in almost all the cells. In the pancreatic ß-cells, Ca 2+ signals are critical for insulin secretion. An increase in the cytoplasmic free Ca 2+ concentration ([Ca 2+ ]i) triggers insulin secretion.

Thermo‐TRP regulation by endogenous factors and its physiological function at core body temperature
Abstract Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels with temperature sensitivities (thermo‐TRPs) are involved in various physiological processes. Thermo‐TRPs that detect temperature changes in peripheral sensory neurons possess indispensable functions in thermosensation, eliciting defensive behavior against noxious temperatures and driving autonomic ...

Structural and Biochemical Consequences of Disease-Causing Mutations in the Ankyrin Repeat Domain of the Human TRPV4 Channel [PDF]
The TRPV4 calcium-permeable cation channel plays important physiological roles in osmosensation, mechanosensation, cell barrier formation, and bone homeostasis. Recent studies reported that mutations in TRPV4, including some in its ankyrin repeat domain (
