The Brain‐Gut Axis in Parkinson's Disease Pathology
Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.Exposure to environmental toxins induces gut dysbiosis, increases intestinal epithelial barrier permeability, immune activation, and oxidative stress, promoting α‐syn misfolding and propagation. Brainstem DMV neurons exhibit α‐syn pathology, dysregulating neuronal excitability and vagal control of GI functions.

The effect of exogenous GLP-1 on food intake is lost in male truncally vagotomized subjects with pyloroplasty [PDF]
, 2013 Rapid degradation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 suggests that endogenous GLP-1 may act locally before being degraded. Signaling via the vagus nerve was investigated in 20 truncally vagotomized subjects with pyloroplasty and

Cancer Neuroscience: Innovative Conception and Emerging Strategy of Therapy
MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.In this review, we summarize nerve–cancer interactions and conclude two additional interactions, “perineural invasion” and “neuro‐microbic‐oncology.” Emphasizing the important role of nerves in tumor progression. The nervous system also contributes to the development of cancer comorbidities such as cancer depression and cognitive dysfunction.

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 2279-2307, 1 April 2026.Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe life‐limiting X‐linked neuromuscular disorder characterised by progressive skeletal muscle degeneration and respiratory failure. The mdx mouse, lacking dystrophin, is the most widely used preclinical model of DMD, yet the trajectory of respiratory dysfunction in this model remains incompletely ...

Navigating the Ethereal Tightrope: The Nanogenerator Manipulates Neurons for Immune Equilibrium
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.This review explores how nanogenerators modulate neuroimmune responses, offering innovative strategies for treating neurological disorders. By interfacing with neural pathways, they enable precise control of immune activity, especially via vagus nerve stimulation.

Blockade of Digestion by Famotidine\ud Pretreatment Does Not Interfere With the Opioid-Enhancing\ud Effect of Ingested Amniotic Fluid [PDF]
, 1995 Ingestion of placenta or amniotic fluid by rats has been shown to enhance ongoing opioid-mediated antinociception, but does not, by itself, produce antinociception.

From Pharmaceutical to Biophysical Therapies: New Horizons in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Management
JCC Plus, Volume 1, Issue 2, March 2026.Important limitations exist in the current pharmacological landscape of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), such as variable response rates and treatment‐limiting adverse effects. In this review, we perform a critical assessment of the current literature on novel multimodal biophysical approaches showing alternative mechanisms of action to, and potential
