The ability of nanoparticles (NPs) to be promptly uptaken by the cells makes them both
dangerous and useful to human health. It was recently postulated that some NPs might cross the …

Iron deficiency is a major global public health problem despite decades of efforts with iron
supplementation and fortification. The issue lies on the poor tolerability of the standard of care …

Reward modulates the saliency of a specific drug exposure and is essential for the transition
to addiction. Numerous human PET–fMRI studies establish a link between midbrain …

Amphetamine (AMPH) is a psychostimulant that is commonly abused. The stimulant properties
of AMPH are associated with its ability to increase dopamine (DA) neurotransmission. …

Synthesized in the liver from cholesterol, the bile acids (BAs) primary role is emulsifying fats
to facilitate their absorption. BAs can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and be synthesized …

Bile acids (BAs) are molecules derived from cholesterol that are involved in dietary fat
absorption. New evidence supports an additional role for BAs as regulators of brain function. …

Psychostimulants target the dopamine transporter (DAT) to elicit their psychomotor actions.
Bile acids (BAs) can also bind to DAT and reduce behavioral responses to cocaine, …

Introduction A solid body of preclinical evidence shows that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor
(GLP-1R) agonists attenuate the effects of substance use disorder related behaviors. The …

The exposure to metal nanoparticles (NPs) has increased with their widespread use in
industry, research and medicine. It is well known that NPs may enter cells and that this …

Advanced interactive visualization such as in virtual environments and ubiquitous interaction
paradigms pose new challenges and opportunities in considering real-time responses to …
