Multiple activities are ascribed to the cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in health and disease. In particular, TNF was shown to affect carcinogenesis in multiple ways. This cytokine acts via the activation of two cell surface receptors, TNFR1, which is

The target for the "rapid" (<24 h) antidepressant effects of S-ketamine is unknown, vitiating programs to rationally develop more effective rapid antidepressants. To describe a drug's target, one must first understand the compartments entered by the drug, at all levels-the

The production of proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) a, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8, increases in patients with sepsis; marked production causes organ failure and septic shock. We previously reported that ketamine suppressed lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced TNF-alpha production in
To promote cancer research and to develop innovative therapies, refined pre-clinical mouse tumor models that mimic the actual disease in humans are of dire need. A number of neoplasms along the B cell lineage are commonly initiated by a translocation

Ketamine is an anesthetic, analgesic, and antidepressant whose secondary metabolite (2R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine (HNK) has N-methyl-d-aspartate-receptor-independent antidepressant activity in a rodent model. In humans, naltrexone attenuates its antidepressant effect, consistent with opioid pathway involvement. No detailed biophysical description is available of opioid
