Molecular Dynamics and Therapeutic Architectures of Cannabinoid Receptors: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: Expanding on these foundations, recent structural biology studies using cryo-electron microscopy have provided high-resolution insights into the conformational dynamics of CB₁ and CB₂ receptors. These findings have enabled a more precise understanding of ligand–receptor interactions, particularly how agonists, antagonists, and reverse agonists stabilize distinct receptor states. Such knowledge is critical for rational drug design, allowing researchers to selectively modulate downstream signaling pathways. For instance, CB₁ receptors primarily couple to Gi/o …

Influence of Antibiotic Promotion Practices on Pharmacovigilance and Resistance Reporting Patterns
Abstract: The global escalation of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a critical public health crisis, undermining decades of therapeutic advancements. While inappropriate prescribing and misuse of antibiotics are widely acknowledged contributors, the role of pharmaceutical promotion practices remains underexplored in influencing prescribing behaviors and downstream pharmacovigilance systems. This review critically examines how antibiotic promotion strategies – ranging from direct physician engagement to digital marketing – affect adverse drug reaction (ADR) …

Nutrient Sensing and Microbiota Crosstalk: Driving Determinants Shaping Metabolic Stability and Adaptive Physiology for Animal Health
Abstract: Nutrient sensing is a fundamental cellular process that enables animals to adapt to fluctuating dietary inputs while maintaining metabolic homeostasis and health. Recent advances reveal that the gut microbiota functions as an active metabolic partner, producing bioactive metabolites that directly influence host nutrient-sensing pathways and downstream cellular responses. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the integration of key signalling networks, including adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), mechanistic target of …

Mass Spectrometry–Based Phosphoproteomic Markers to Predict Kinase Inhibitor Response in Solid Tumors
Abstract: Mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics has emerged as a powerful tool for predicting kinase inhibitor responses in solid tumors, offering direct functional insights into signaling pathways that surpass traditional genomic profiling by capturing dynamic kinase activities and adaptive resistance mechanisms. Technological breakthroughs, including data- independent acquisition (DIA), trapped ion mobility spectrometry (timsTOF), and efficient enrichment methods like TiO2 or IMAC, now enable comprehensive profiling of over 40,000 phosphorylation sites from limited clinical …

Nutritional Status, Bioactive Properties & Therapeutic Efficacy of Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Obtained by Green Synthetic Routes
Abstract: Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), particularly omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids like eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are crucial for human health. They support structural brain development, visual acuity, and cardiovascular function, while also exhibiting potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. Historically, marine fish oil has been the primary dietary source of these essential fatty acids. However, escalating concerns regarding ecological environmental impacts, the oceanic bioaccumulation of heavy metal contaminants, …
