Management of pain in rheumatic diseases by Neha Goyal, Mohit Goyal, Vinod Ravindran

“…Apart from the useful addition of neuromodulators to our traditional repertoire of pain medications consisting of analgesics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, steroids, and opioids, there is a place for interventions in situations where pain persists even after reasonable control of widespread inflammation. …”

Early life stress and altered social behaviors: A perspective across species by Lyonna F. Parise, C. Joseph Burnett, Scott J. Russo

“…Animal models have been integral in identifying both the short- and long-term consequences of stress exposure and suggest that whether it is disruption to parental care or social isolation, chronic exposure to early life stress increases corticosterone, changes the expression of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, and facilitates structural alterations to the hypothalamus, hippocampus, and amygdala, influencing how these brain regions communicate with other reward-related substrates. …”

Serotonergic Modulation of Conditioned Fear by Judith R. Homberg

“…Understanding how neuromodulators drive the associated learning and memory processes, including memory consolidation, retrieval/expression, and extinction (recall), is essential in the understanding of (individual differences in vulnerability to) these disorders and their treatment. …”

The role of the corticotropin-releasing hormone and its receptors in the regulation of stress response by E. V. Sukhareva

“…In addition to the hypothalamus, CRH is widespread in extrahypothalamic brain structures, where it functions as a neuromodulator for coordination and interaction between the humoral and behavioral aspects of a stress response. …”

Impact of fluoxetine exposure on Lymnaea stagnalis and its developing eggs: integrating untargeted lipidomics, targeted metabolomics, and classical risk assessment by Diana Ilyaskina, Yumi Nakadera, Yumi Nakadera, Marja H. Lamoree, Joris M. Koene, Pim E. G. Leonards

“…Pharmaceuticals such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are increasingly detected in aquatic environments, posing potential risks to non-target organisms, because many of those substances are widely shared neuromodulator. In this study, we investigated the effects of SSRI antidepressant, namely, fluoxetine, exposure on the freshwater snail L. stagnalis, focusing on egg development, neurochemical pathways, and lipid metabolism. …”

Pharmacological pain management in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: a narrative literature review by Natasha Cox, Christian D. Mallen, Ian C. Scott

“…In contrast, they showed low-quality evidence from trials in more historical time-periods (mainly in the 1960s–1990s for opioids and paracetamol) that (aside from naproxen) analgesics/neuromodulators provide any improvements in pain relative to placebo, and no supportive evidence for gabapentinoids, or long-term opioids. …”

Precision Psychobiotics for Gut–Brain Axis Health: Advancing the Discovery Pipelines to Deliver Mechanistic Pathways and Proven Health Efficacy by Rebecca F. Slykerman, Naomi Davies, Klara Vlckova, Kenneth J. O'Riordan, Shalome A. Bassett, James Dekker, Harriët Schellekens, Niall P. Hyland, Gerard Clarke, Elaine Patterson

“…For the therapeutic application of live microbial psychobiotics, consensus on their application as adjunct treatments to conventional neuromodulators, use in unmedicated populations or in at‐risk cohorts with sub‐clinical symptomatology is warranted. …”
