Development of Tetrahydroquinoline-Based Inhibitors for Chronic Pain.

Chronic pain affects a substantial portion of the population, posing a significant health challenge. Current treatments often come with limitations and side effects, necessitating novel therapeutic approaches. Our study focuses on disrupting the Cav3.

Characterization and modulation of voltage-gated potassium channels in human lymphocytes in schizophrenia.

Background: It is known that the immune system is dysregulated in schizophrenia, having a state similar to chronic neuroinflammation. The origin of this process is unknown, but it is known that T and B lymphocytes, which are components of the adaptive immune system, play an important role in the pathogenic mechanisms of schizophrenia.

Methods: We analysed the membrane of PBMCs from patients diagnosed with schizophrenia through proteomic analysis (n = 5 schizophrenia and n = 5 control).

Social cognition and emotional rehabilitation in participants with schizofrenia.

Introduction: People with schizophrenia have deficits in social cognition, emotion and social perception, as well as attributional style. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a multicomponent social cognition training program, e-Motional Training® (ET), in people with schizophrenia and to compare its efficacy with people who did not receive it. Therefore, a single-blind RCT was conducted in participants with a diagnosis of schizophrenia.

Icariside II, a Prenyl-Flavonol, Alleviates Inflammatory and Neuropathic Pain by Inhibiting T-Type Calcium Channels and USP5-Cav3.2 Interactions.

Cav3.2 channels play an important role in the afferent nociceptive pathway, which is responsible for both physiological and pathological pain transmission. Cav3.

Emotion recognition through Spanish prosody in people with schizophrenia.

People with schizophrenia have deficits in the ability to identify emotions. An area of important dysfunction is the understanding of affective prosody, which can limit communication and social functionality. The objective of this study is to compare emotional recognition through prosody between a group of people with schizophrenia versus a control group without pathology, through the Reading the Mind in the Voice - Spanish Version scale (RMV-SV).
