Optical Control of Cannabinoid Receptor 2-Mediated Ca2+ Release Enabled by Synthesis of Photoswitchable Probes

Roman C. Sarott et al.

Summary: CB2 receptor is a promising target for treating neuroinflammation and other diseases, but the lack of understanding of its complex signaling complicates therapeutic exploitation. A study demonstrates how the CB2 agonist HU308 affects cytosolic Ca2+ levels in cells and tissues, and shows the utility of chemical photoswitches for real-time control and monitoring of CB2 signaling.

Alleviation of diabetic nephropathy by zinc oxide nanoparticles in streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetes in rats

Ghada Alomari et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that zinc oxide nanoparticles can ameliorate renal damage induced by diabetic nephropathy in a rat model by improving renal function, inhibiting fibrosis, oxidative stress, inflammation, abnormal angiogenesis, and delaying podocyte injury development. These findings could potentially guide the clinical application of zinc oxide nanoparticles for protecting against diabetic nephropathy.
