Published in 2019 at "Methods in molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4939-9130-3_5

Abstract: Tissue resident macrophages (TRMs) are multifunctional immune cells present in all tissues, contributing to the correct development, homeostasis, and protection against pathogens and injury. TRMs are morphologically and functionally heterogeneous, as a result of both… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of neurotrauma"

DOI: 10.1089/neu.2016.4399

Abstract: In patients in the chronic phase after recurrent mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), alterations in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) concentration and receptor activity have been reported, possibly mediating subtle but persistent cognitive deficits and increased rate… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Circulation Research"

DOI: 10.1161/circresaha.122.320976

Abstract: Rationale: Hypertension is a common and serious adverse effect of calcineurin inhibitors, including cyclosporine and tacrolimus (FK506). Although increased sympathetic nerve discharges are associated with calcineurin inhibitor–induced hypertension, the sources of excess sympathetic outflow and… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Frontiers in Pharmacology"

DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1132066

Abstract: The vasopressin/oxytocin signaling system is present in both protostomes and deuterostomes and plays various physiological roles. Although there were reports for both vasopressin-like peptides and receptors in mollusc Lymnaea and Octopus, no precursor or receptors… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232416035

Abstract: Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a key component of migraine pathophysiology, yielding effective migraine therapeutics. CGRP receptors contain a core accessory protein subunit: receptor activity-modifying protein 1 (RAMP1). Understanding of RAMP1 expression is incomplete, partly… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "eLife"

DOI: 10.7554/elife.25808

Abstract: Engineering light-sensitivity into proteins has wide ranging applications in molecular studies and neuroscience. Commonly used tethered photoswitchable ligands, however, require solvent-accessible protein labeling, face structural constrains, and are bulky. Here, we designed a set of… read more here.
