A mechanistic classification of GNAO1 mutations links Gβ γ sequestration to hyperkinetic disease and treatment response

Go is the most prevalent G protein subunit in the brain and is critical for signal transduction through G protein-coupled receptors. Mutations in the gene encoding Go (GNAO1) cause a rare neurodevelopmental disorder with involuntary movements (NEDIM) and, in some patients, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE). Here, we integrate human genetic analysis with cellular assays to define mec

Screening and evaluation of medicine food homology herbal combinations for ameliorating chemotherapy induced ovarian aging under an integrated multi-strategy framework

Abstract Background: Ovarian aging poses a serious threat to women's reproductive health. Medicine food homology (MFH) herbs, owing to their favorable safety profile and suitability for long-term use, have become important interventional resources. However, conventional formula screening relies largely on empirical statistics and lacks mechanistic evidence and a systematic screening strategy. Meth

In vivo optical induction of INaL by photoactivation of AaH-II peptide in beating heart using wireless implantable device

Precise spatiotemporal control of pharmacological compounds in cardiac tissue remains an unmet challenge. Systemic drug administration poorly reproduces the localized and transient nature of cardiac events. Photopharmacology, in which light controls drug activity, offers a compelling solution, but its translation to the beating heart requires wireless light delivery to a moving, soft, and electric
