Neuronal and ion channel mechanisms of noxious heat sensing in mammals: A puzzle of sensory physiology and pharmacology

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) was the first noxious heat‐sensitive channel discovered. In rodents, its role is robust in the heat response of the cell body of polymodal nociceptors, but surprisingly small in that of the peripheral terminals in the skin.

Tukushi modulates Xnr2, FGF, and and BMP signalling: Regulation of Xenopus Germ Layer Formation

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Cell-cell communication is essential in tissue patterning. In early amphibian development, mesoderm is formed in the blastula-stage embryo through inductive interactions in which vegetal cells act on overlying equatorial cells. Members of the

On the function of Xenopus Oct4 protein homologs: Molecular construction of dominant interference variants and functional analysis in early frog development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Embryonic development represents a sophisticated multistep process. Hereby, specification, patterning and differentiation of cells and tissue need to be extremely well regulated in a temporo-spatial manner. This is based on repression and activation of a

Functional screen for subtype specificity of voltage sensor–targeted Kv7 potentiators

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Voltage‐gated Kv7 (potassium channel subfamily Q [KCNQ]) potassium channels are powerful modulators of neuronal excitability. ICA‐069673 is a N‐aryl benzamide drug that targets the voltage‐sensing domain (VSD) of Kv7.2 with strong selectivity over Kv7.3 or Kv7.5, but the molecular basis of this selectivity remains poorly ...

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Inbreeding ratio and genetic relationships among strains of the Western clawed frog, Xenopus tropicalis

open access: yes, 2015
The Western clawed frog, Xenopus tropicalis, is a highly promising model amphibian, especially in developmental and physiological research, and as a tool for understanding disease.

Iloperidone treatment mitigates the Juvenile Huntington's Disease phenotype possibly via Sigma‐1 Receptor Modulation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We investigated the potential of iloperidone as an activator of Sigma‐1 receptor (S1R) neuroprotective function in juvenile Huntington's disease (jHD). We tested iloperidone on cortical neurons differentiated from patient‐derived iPSCs, demonstrating that it acts as a S1R agonist, decreasing apoptosis, huntingtin aggregation, and oxidative stress ...
