Alpha 2-adrenergic, but not imidazole, agonists activate NaCl cotransport in rabbit tracheal epithelial cells

, 1993
The adrenergic agonist clonidine activates NaCl cotransport in rabbit tracheocytes. With the use of the high-affinity analogue p-[125I]iodoclonidine, binding of clonidine to cells was determined to fit a two-site model, with one site of high specificity

Iloperidone treatment mitigates the Juvenile Huntington's Disease phenotype possibly via Sigma‐1 Receptor Modulation

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We investigated the potential of iloperidone as an activator of Sigma‐1 receptor (S1R) neuroprotective function in juvenile Huntington's disease (jHD). We tested iloperidone on cortical neurons differentiated from patient‐derived iPSCs, demonstrating that it acts as a S1R agonist, decreasing apoptosis, huntingtin aggregation, and oxidative stress ...

Docking Simulations of G-Protein Coupled Receptors Uncover Crossover Binding Patterns of Diverse Ligands to Angiotensin, Alpha-Adrenergic and Opioid Receptors: Implications for Cardiovascular Disease and Addiction

Biomolecules
Recent bioassay studies have unexpectedly supported the high (computationally predicted) binding affinities of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) at α-adrenergic receptors (αARs) in isolated smooth muscle.

Layer-by-Layer Assembly of Polysaccharides and 6,10-Ionene for Separation of Nitrogen-Containing Pharmaceuticals and Their Enantiorecognition by Capillary Electrophoresis

Journal of Chemistry, 2015
Two silica capillaries modified layer-by-layer with 6,10-ionene and N-(3-sulfo-3-carboxy)-propionylchitosan (SCPC) and with 6,10-ionene and dextran sulfate (DS) were prepared and investigated.

Testing for Non‐Severe Heritable Platelet Function Disorders

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heritable platelet function disorders (HPFD) are a diverse group of bleeding disorders characterised by a primary qualitative defect in platelet function rather than platelet number. HPFD may be broadly categorised according to the severity of bleeding, with Glanzmann thrombasthenia and Bernard Soulier syndrome classically considered severe ...

Spinal Tolerance and Dependence: Some Observations on the Role of Spinal N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors and Phosphorylation in the Loss of Opioid Analgesic Responses

Pain Research and Management, 2000
The continuous delivery of opiates can lead to a reduction in analgesic effects. In humans, as in other animals, some component of this change in sensitivity seems likely to have a strong pharmacodynamic component.

The Interactions Between Acetylcholine and T‐Cells and Their Role in the Immune System: A Scoping Review

Immunology, EarlyView.
Activated T‐cells instigate signalling events leading to the activation of transcription factors, which in turn, act on the nucleus to produce cytokines. We postulate that c‐fos is one of these transcription factors which upregulates the choline acetyltransferase gene responsible for synthesising acetylcholine (ACh).

Influence of Epinephrine and Medetomidine on Systemic Absorption of Lidocaine Applied Epidurally in Anesthetized Swine

Acta Veterinaria, 2014
Epinephrine and alpha 2 agonist drugs are often used with epidural anesthesia to minimize local anesthetic systemic absorption, as well as to prolong the duration of the block. The aim of the current study was to determine by which extent epinephrine and

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 505-516, April 2025.
Recent neuroimaging and histological studies highlight the striatum as a key area involved in SCH, but the specific impairment of neuronal subtypes in subcortical structures is not fully understood. This study is the first detailed investigation of neuroanatomical changes in the putamen in SCH, specifically examining the density of calretinin ...

Veterinary Pharmaceutical Safety Competencies for New Graduates: Description of an Interprofessional Simulated Learning Activity

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The misuse and abuse of veterinary anesthetic and analgesic agents pose significant public health risks, particularly with the growing presence of ultrapotent opioids and other anesthetics in the illicit drug trade. In response, there is increasing emphasis on incorporating medication safety training into veterinary curricula.
