Abstract
Novel treatments are needed as neurological issues become more frequent worldwide. According to the report, plants, oceans, microorganisms, and animals contain interesting drug discovery compounds. Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and stroke reviews emphasize neurological disorders' complexity and natural substances' safety. Learn about marine-derived and herbal substances' neuroprotective characteristics and applications. Molecular pathways show these substances' neurological healing effects. This article discusses clinical usage of Bryostatin-1, Fucoidan, Icariin, Salvianolic acid, Curcumin, Resveratrol, etc. Their potential benefits for asthma and Alzheimer's disease are complex. Although limited, the study promotes rigorous scientific research and collaboration between traditional and alternative medical practitioners. Unexplored natural compounds, quality control, well-structured clinical trials, and interdisciplinary collaboration should guide future study. Developing and employing natural chemicals to treat neurological illnesses requires ethical sourcing, sustainability, and public awareness. This detailed analysis covers natural chemicals' current state, challenges, and opportunities in neurological disorder treatment. See also the graphical abstract(Fig. 1).

Abstract
N-type voltage-gated calcium channel controls the release of neurotransmitters from neurons. The association of other voltage-gated calcium channels with epilepsy is well-known. The association of N-type voltage-gated calcium channels and pain has also been established. However, the relationship between this type of calcium channel and epilepsy has not been specifically reviewed. Therefore, the present review systematically summarizes existing publications regarding the genetic associations between N-type voltage-dependent calcium channel and epilepsy.

Abstract
Activation of nociceptin opioid peptide receptors (NOP, a.k.a. opioid-like receptor-1, ORL-1) by the ligand nociceptin/orphanin FQ, leads to G protein-dependent regulation of Cav2.2 (N-type) voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs). This typically causes a reduction in calcium currents, triggering changes in presynaptic calcium levels and thus neurotransmission. Because of the widespread expression patterns of NOP and VGCCs across multiple brain regions, the dorsal horn of the spinal cord, and the dorsal root ganglia, this results in the alteration of numerous neurophysiological features. Here we review the regulation of N-type calcium channels by the NOP-nociceptin system in the context of neurological conditions such as anxiety, addiction, and pain.

Abstract
Cone snail venoms have been considered a valuable treasure for international scientists and businessmen, mainly due to their pharmacological applications in development of marine drugs for treatment of various human diseases. To date, around 800 Conus species are recorded, and each of them produces over 1,000 venom peptides (termed as conopeptides or conotoxins). This reflects the high diversity and complexity of cone snails, although most of their venoms are still uncharacterized. Advanced multiomics (such as genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics) approaches have been recently developed to mine diverse Conus venom samples, with the main aim to predict and identify potentially interesting conopeptides in an efficient way. Some bioinformatics techniques have been applied to predict and design novel conopeptide sequences, related targets, and their binding modes. This review provides an overview of current knowledge on the high diversity of conopeptides and multiomics advances in high-throughput prediction of novel conopeptide sequences, as well as molecular modeling and design of potential drugs based on the predicted or validated interactions between these toxins and their molecular targets.

Abstract
Development of chronic pain has been attributed to dysfunctional GABA signaling in the
spinal cord. Direct pharmacological interventions on GABA signaling are usually not very
efficient and often accompanied by side effects due to the widespread distribution of GABA
receptors in CNS. Transplantation of GABAergic neuronal cells may restore the inhibitory
potential in the spinal cord. Grafted cells may also release additional analgesic peptides
by means of genetic engineering to further enhance the benefits of this approach.
Conopeptides are ideal candidates for recombinant expression using cell-based strategies.
The omega-conopeptide MVIIA is in clinical use for severe pain marketed as FDA approved
Prialt in the form of intrathecal injections. The goal of this study was to develop
transplantable recombinant GABAergic cells releasing conopeptide MVIIA and to evaluate the
analgesic effect of the grafts in a model of peripheral nerve injury-induced pain. We have
engineered and characterized the GABAergic progenitors expressing MVIIA. Recombinant and
nonrecombinant cells were intraspinally injected into animals after the nerve injury.
Animals were tested weekly up to 12 weeks for the presence of hypersensitivity, followed
by histochemical and biochemical analysis of the tissue. We observed beneficial effects of
the grafted cells in reducing hypersensitivity in all grafted animals, especially potent
in the recombinant group. The level of pain-related cytokines was reduced in the grafted
animals and correlation between these pain markers and actual behavior was indicated. This
study demonstrated the feasibility of recombinant cell transplantation in the management
of chronic pain.

Abstract
Antiepileptic drugs have been successfully treating epilepsy and providing individuals sustained seizure freedom. However, about 30% of the patients with epilepsy present drug resistance, which means they are not responsive to the pharmacological treatment. Considering this, it becomes extremely relevant to pursue alternative therapeutic approaches, in order to provide appropriate treatment for those patients and also improve their quality of life. In the light of that, this review aims to discuss some innovative options for the treatment of epilepsy, which are currently under investigation, addressing strategies that go from therapeutic compounds to clinical procedures. For instance, peptides derived from animal venoms, such as wasps, spiders, and scorpions, demonstrate to be promising antiepileptic molecules, acting on a variety of targets. Other options are cannabinoids and compounds that modulate the endocannabinoid system, since it is now known that this network is involved in the pathophysiology of epilepsy. Furthermore, neurostimulation is another strategy, being an alternative clinical procedure for drug-resistant patients who are not eligible for palliative surgeries.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a chronic neuropathology characterized by an abnormal hyperactivity of neurons that generate recurrent, spontaneous, paradoxical and synchronized nerve impulses, leading or not to seizures. This neurological disorder affects around 70 million individuals worldwide. Pharmacoresistance is observed in about 30% of the patients and long-term use of antiepileptics may induce serious side effects. Thus, there is an interest in the study of the therapeutic potential of bioactive substances isolated from natural products in the treatment of epilepsy. Arthropod venoms contain neurotoxins that have high affinity for molecular structures in the neural tissue such as receptors, transporters and ion channels both in glial and neuronal membranes. This study evaluated the potential neuroprotective effect of melittin (MEL), an active compound of bee venom, in the bicuculline-induced seizure model (BIC) in rats. Male Wistar rats (3 months, 250-300 g) were submitted to surgery for the implantation of a unilateral cannula in the lateral ventricle. After the recovery period, rats received a microinjection of saline solution or MEL (0.1 mg per animal). Firstly, rats were evaluated in the open field (20 min) and in the elevated plus maze (5 min) tests after received microinjection of saline or MEL. After, 30 min later animals received BIC (100 mg/ml) or saline, and their behaviors were analyzed for 20 min in the open field according to a seizure scale. At the end, rats were euthanized, brains collected and processed to glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunohistochemistry evaluation. No changes were observed in MEL-treated rats in the open field and elevated plus maze. However, 90% of MEL-treated animals were protected against seizures induced by BIC. There was an increase in the latency for the onset of seizures, accompanied by a reduction of GFAP-immunoreactivity cells in the dentate gyrus and CA1. Thus, our study suggests that MEL has an anticonvulsant potential, and further studies are needed to elucidate the mechanisms involved in this action.

Neuroprotective effects of the CTK 01512-2 toxin against neurotoxicity induced by 3-nitropropionic acid in rats. Neurotoxicology 2021; 87:30-42.

Abstract
The mitochondrial inhibitor 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP) induces excitotoxicity. The authors hypothesized that CTK 01512-2, a recombinant peptide calcium channel N-type blocker, and the TRPA1 antagonist, could show neuroprotective effects. The male Wistar rats received 3-NP [25 mg/kg (i.p.) for 7 days], and a treatment of CTK 01512-2 was delivered intrathecally (i.t.), thrice a week. The neuroprotective effects were evaluated by [18F]FDG MicroPET analysis. The CTK 01512-2 toxin was able to reestablish similar glucose uptakes on the control animals. To detect the neurobehavioral effects from 3-NP, three protocols (6.25, 12.5, 18.75 mg/kg of 3-NP (i.p.), for 3, 4, and 6 days, respectively) were evaluated by performance tests (open field test, walk footprint, elevated plus-maze, Y-maze, and the object recognition test). Important disabilities in the gait of the rats were seen, as well as memory deficits, and anxious behavior in the animals that were treated with all 3-NP protocols. The dose of 18.75 mg/kg (for 3 days) showed the most pronounced behavioral effects and lethality, while the rats treated with 12.5 mg/kg (for 4 days) showed behavioral effects similar to the 6.25 mg/kg dose (for 6 days). The third protocol was then repeated and the rats were treated with the CTK 01512-2 toxin to be evaluated behaviorally again. The recombinant peptide prevented all of the gait-evaluated parameters that were induced by 3-NP at a 6.25 mg/kg dose, which displayed an improvement in the exploratory activities. Overall, these results have reinforced the positive effects of CTK 01512-2 against the behavioral changes that were induced by the mitochondrial inhibitor 3-NP.
