Anxiolytic Effects of Indole Alkaloids From Rauvolfia ligustrina in Adult Zebrafish: Involvement of the GABAergic and 5‐HT Systems

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Benzodiazepines are widely used in the treatment of anxiety, but their use may be interrupted due to side effects. This study evaluated the indole alkaloids isocarapanaubine (indole alkaloid 1 [AIN1]) and 18‐β‐hydroxy‐3‐epi‐α‐yohimbine (indole alkaloid 2 [AIN2]), extracted from Rauvolfia ligustrina, in adult zebrafish.

β2-Adrenergic Receptor Activation Suppresses the Rat Phenethylamine Hallucinogen-Induced Head Twitch Response: Hallucinogen-Induced Excitatory Post-synaptic Potentials as a Potential Substrate

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
5-Hydroxytryptamine2A (5-HT2A) receptors are enriched in layers I and Va of the rat prefrontal cortex and neocortex and their activation increases the frequency of glutamatergic excitatory post-synaptic potentials/currents (EPSP/Cs) onto layer V ...

Cannabinoids From Trema micranthum (L.) Blume (Cannabaceae): A Cannabinoid Profiling System

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trema micranthum (L.) Blume is a species from the Cannabaceae botanical family, present all over the tropics. A recent study conducted by our group identified the presence of cannabidiol (CBD), Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabidiolic acid, and tetrahydrocannabinolic acid‐A in T. micranthum extracts.

Endothelium‐Independent Relaxation of Alkaloid Boldine in Isolated Aortas From Normotensive and Hypertensive Rats: Participation of Ca2+ Channels

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Involvement of Ca2+ channels in boldine‐induced vascular relaxation. ABSTRACT The regulation of vascular tone plays a fundamental role in blood pressure homeostasis and still represents a significant challenge in clinical practice. Boldine, a naturally occurring alkaloid from Peumus boldus, has emerged as a compound of interest due to its therapeutic ...
