Considering the role of Murine double minute 2 in the cardiovascular system [PDF]

, 2019
The E3 ubiquitin ligase Murine double minute 2 (MDM2) is the main negative regulator of the tumor protein p53 (TP53). Extensive studies over more than two decades have confirmed MDM2 oncogenic role through mechanisms both TP53-dependent and TP53 ...

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.

Molecular Mechanism for Ligand Recognition and Subtype Selectivity of α2C Adrenergic Receptor

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Adrenergic G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate different cellular signaling pathways in the presence of endogenous catecholamines and play important roles in both physiological and pathological conditions.

Purinergic signalling: past, present and future [PDF]

, 2009
The discovery of non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic neurotransmission in the gut and bladder in the early 1960's is described as well as the identification of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) as a transmitter in these nerves in the early 1970's.

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.

Anti-adrenergic effects of endothelin on human atrial action potentials are potentially anti-arrhythmic [PDF]

, 2006
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is elevated in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure. We investigated effects of ET-1 on human atrial cellular electrophysiological measurements expected to influence the genesis and maintenance of AF.

A Rare Case of Nitroglycerin Resistant Coronary Arterial Vasospasm During Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery vasospasm following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication that can lead to myocardial ischemia, arrhythmias, and cardiogenic shock. Nitroglycerin‐resistant vasospasm, particularly involving the left main coronary artery (LMCA), poses significant diagnostic and ...

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Bicyclic Pyrazolines with Promising Antimicrobial Activities

ChemMedChem, EarlyView.
Continuous flow technology is exploited for the generation of bicyclic pyrazolines via photo‐click reactions. These heterocyclic species contain a valuable 3D scaffold along with a polar succinimide moiety. Subsequent antimicrobial testing reveals that halogenated moieties such as chlorine atoms and trifluoromethoxy groups enhance the potency of these ...
