Published in 2017 at "American Journal of Primatology"

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.22712

Abstract: Agonistic behaviors are common in many group‐living taxa and may serve a variety of functions, ranging from regulating conflicts over reproduction to defending food resources. However, high rates of agonism are not expected to occur… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Archiv der Pharmazie"

DOI: 10.1002/ardp.202200451

Abstract: Histamine H3 receptor (H3R) agonists without an imidazole moiety remain very scarce. Of these, ZEL‐H16 (1) has been reported previously as a high‐affinity non‐imidazole H3R (partial) agonist. Our structure‐activity relationship analysis using derivatives of 1… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Cancer"

DOI: 10.1002/ijc.34210

Abstract: The N‐nitroso‐trischloroethylurea (NTCU)‐induced mouse model of squamous lung carcinoma recapitulates human disease from premalignant dysplasia through invasive tumors, making it suitable for preclinical chemoprevention drug testing. Pioglitazone is a peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonist… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Molecular Metabolism"

DOI: 10.1016/j.molmet.2021.101242

Abstract: Objective Glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucagon receptor (GLP-1R/GCGR) co-agonism can maximise weight loss and improve glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes and obesity. In this study, we investigated the cellular and metabolic effects of modulating the… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Environmental Politics"

DOI: 10.1080/09644016.2019.1684739

Abstract: ABSTRACT Contemporary liberal democratic states seem to be headed towards inevitable environmental crisis. These states are locked into unsustainable practices and appear to lack the political institutions that could help them change path. Although there… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Physiology"

DOI: 10.1152/physiol.2025.40.s1.1512

Abstract: Objective: Females are historically underrepresented in cardiovascular research; as a result, therapeutic approaches are derived from primarily male cohorts, leading to less effective treatments. Vascular β-adrenergic receptors (ARs) mediate blood flow and blood pressure responses… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "American journal of respiratory cell and molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1165/rcmb.2022-0196oc

Abstract: Hypoxia contributes to the exaggerated yet ineffective airway inflammation that fails to oppose infections in cystic fibrosis (CF). However, the potential for impairment of essential immune functions by the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α inhibition demands for… read more here.
