Inhibitory control is affected by perceptual processes, but the mechanisms how perceptual features affect response inhibition are poorly understood. Theoretical frameworks detailing how variations in stimulus features that create overlaps between response categories can affect action control, like the Theory of Event Coding (TEC), have not been transferred to inhibitory control. We present a novel Go/Nogo paradigm in which we varied stimulus feature overlap between Go and Nogo trials. To examine what cognitive-neurophysiological subprocesses and functional neuroanatomical structures are modulated by stimulus-response feature overlap and recoding during inhibitory control, we combine event-related potential (ERP) recordings with source localization analyses. We show that response inhibition was compromised when stimulus features overlapped between Go and Nogo trials. The EEG data show that the recoding of stimulus-response mappings induced by such a stimulus feature overlaps affects subprocesses from perceptual gating/categorization (P1 ERP-component) to pre-motor inhibition (Nogo-N2 ERP-component) and motor inhibition (Nogo-P3 ERP-component). Although these are distinct processes, overlapping neuronal structures are associated with these modulations. The cascade of processes starts in the superior frontal cortex and is associated with perceptual categorization mechanisms. Subsequently, pre-motor inhibition or stimulus-response unbinding processes are modulated in parahippocampal structures before stimulus-response rebinding and motor inhibition is accomplished in parahippocampal and superior frontal structures. The study shows how perceptual processes can affect response inhibition using a theoretical framework, which has, until now, not been brought into connection with inhibitory control and establishes links between neurophysiology and functional neuroanatomy of inhibitory control with the TEC framework.

Excessive inflammatory responses to viral infections, known as cytokine storms, are caused by overactivation of endolysosomal Toll-like receptors (TLRs) (TLR3, TLR7, TLR8, and TLR9) and can be lethal, but no specific treatment is available. Some quinoline derivatives with antiviral activity were tried during the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, but showed serious toxicity, and their efficacy for treating viral cytokine storms was not established. Here, in order to discover a low-toxicity quinoline derivative as a candidate for controlling virally induced inflammation, we synthesized a series of derivatives of amodiaquine (ADQ), a quinoline approved as an antimalarial, and tested their effects on TLRs-mediated production of inflammatory cytokines and cell viability in vitro.

Ipconazole (IPC) is a chiral triazole fungicide and commonly used for disease control in seeds. This study investigated the bioactivity and potential mechanism of ipconazole against pathogenic microorganisms at the chiral perspective. It explored the accumulation behavior of ipconazole enantiomers within the soil-earthworm system and evaluated its toxic effects on earthworms.

Background: Intravenous administration of sufentanil during anesthesia induction induces cough (SIC), sometimes triggers a severe reaction. We wanted to investigate the inhibitory effect of low-dose esketamine on cough induced by sufentanil during the induction of general anesthesia, as well as its postoperative impact on mental status (MMSE score, RSS, and VAS-A).

Methods: A total of 256 adult patients were randomly allocated to receive either esketamine (Group EK) or normal saline (Group C).

Background: Selenium can inhibit cervical cancers, but the specific mechanism of anti-cervical cancer is not fully understood.

Methods: In this study, we investigated the anti-cervical cancer effect of sodium selenite (SS) in vivo and in vitro to reveal the role of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) signaling pathway in terms of the mechanism. In vivo experiments, HeLa cell xenografts were constructed in BALB/c female nude mice, and then intraperitoneally injected with 3 mg/kg sodium selenite (SS) for 14 days.

Background: α-Amylase (α-AMY) and α-glucosidase (α-GLU) inhibitors are important for controlling postprandial hyperglycemia (PHG). Bixa orellana (annatto) reported inhibitory activity against these enzymes because of its bioactive compound content. However, an understanding of its inhibitory mechanisms and metabolic profile is necessary to establish its therapeutic potential.
