During efforts to improve the bioavailability of FMS kinase inhibitors 1 and 2, a series of saturated and aromatic 4-heterocycles of reduced basicity were prepared and evaluated in an attempt to also improve the cardiovascular safety profile over lead arylamide 1, which possessed ion channel activity. The resultant compounds retained excellent potency and exhibited diminished ion channel activity.

Psychedelics show promise in treating psychiatric disorders. Therapeutic effects appear to involve activation of the 5-Hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor (5-HTR), a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). Several SNPs of the 5-HTR naturally occur, which are associated with differences in receptor function and altered responsiveness to treatments.

Moderate mowing of the shoot is an effective strategy for improving Pb-contaminated soil remediation using bermudagrass. However, the mechanisms by which mowing facilitates Pb uptake and accumulation remain insufficiently understood. Root radial transport is critical in efficient heavy metal uptake and translocation in plants and is influenced by root physiological-biochemical characteristics.

Intracellular Ca homeostasis dysregulation, through the modulation of calcium permeable ion channels and transporters, is gaining attention in cancer research as an apoptosis evasion mechanism. Recently, we highlighted a prognostic role for several calcium permeable channels. Among them, here, we focused on the plasma membrane bidirectional Na/Ca exchanger SLC8A1.

Lymphatic muscle cells (LMCs) within the wall of collecting lymphatic vessels exhibit tonic and autonomous phasic contractions, which drive active lymph transport to maintain tissue-fluid homeostasis and support immune surveillance. Damage to LMCs disrupts lymphatic function and is related to various diseases. Despite their importance, knowledge of the gene transcriptional signatures in LMCs and how they relate to lymphatic function in normal and disease contexts is largely missing.

Background: Substance use disorders are multifaceted conditions influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Serotonergic pathways are known to be involved in substance use disorder susceptibility, with genetic markers within serotonin receptor genes identified as potential risk factors.

Methods: To further explore this relationship, we conducted a study to investigate the association between several polymorphisms in five serotonin receptor genes (, , ) and substance use disorders (SUD) in Jordanian males by sequencing genotypes in 496 SUD patients and 496 healthy controls.
