The central receptors of asprosin are mainly located in the hypothalamic ... At the same time, this signaling inhibits the activity of POMC neurons in a GABA-dependent way, thereby stimulating food ...

So-called GABA A receptors are proteins that control the flow of ions into and out of cells. As they play such a vital role in how neurons slow down or stop firing, they have become the targets of ...

Certain proteins found in the human brain have long been known to be critical to controlling how brain cells communicate with each other. So-called GABA A receptors are proteins that control the flow ...

These drugs are called agonists. They don't cause neurotransmitter levels to rise but instead increase activity by stimulating receptors. GABA agonists include: Yoga is generally believed to be ...

Ideally, the immune system will produce long-lasting antibodies recognizing that specific virus, thereby providing protection. But Scripps Research scientists have now discovered that for some HIV ...

This important study provides solid evidence to support the anti-tumor potential of citalopram, originally an anti-depression drug, in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In addition to their previous ...

This study presents a valuable finding on the alterations in the autophagic-lysosomal pathway in a Huntington's disease model. The evidence supporting the claims of the authors is solid. However, the ...

Studies indicate that pharmacological modulation of GABA receptors may be a promising therapeutic option in achieving long-term abstinence by decreasing the daily alcohol intake and withdrawal effects ...

but antibodies to N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) were identified in serum and CSF (Figure 2). Given the rapid deterioration of the patient's condition, a left salpingo-oophorectomy was ...

Alterations in thyroid gland function result from the action of stimulating or blocking autoantibodies on cell membrane receptors ... a result of a mother with antibodies due to AITD.
