Inhibition of Geranylgeranylacetone on cholecystokinin-B receptor, BDNF and dopamine D1 receptor induced by morphine

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2022
Morphine is the pain releasing and abusing drug. Morphine leads to addiction by activating dopaminergic rewarding system consisted of the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and nucleus accumbens (NAc). Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a gut-brain neuropeptide and involved in morphine dependence.

Exocrine Gland Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: Pathophysiology, Clinical Manifestations, and Therapeutic Perspectives—A Narrative Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐motor symptoms, especially autonomic dysfunction, are major contributors to disability and decreased quality of life in Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite being common and having a wide range of clinical facets, exocrine gland dysfunction is still not well recognized and managed.

Aberrant location of inhibitory synaptic marker proteins in the hippocampus of dystrophin-deficient mice [PDF]

, 2014
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a neuromuscular disease that arises from mutations in the dystrophin-encoding gene. Apart from muscle pathology, cognitive impairment, primarily of developmental origin, is also a significant component of the disorder.

Evaluation of Actinium-225 Labeled Minigastrin Analogue [²²⁵Ac]Ac-DOTA-PP-F11N for Targeted Alpha Particle Therapy

Pharmaceutics, 2020
The overexpression of cholecystokinin B receptor (CCKBR) in human cancers led to the development of radiolabeled minigastrin analogues for targeted radionuclide therapy, which aims to deliver cytotoxic radiation specifically to cancer cells.

Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...

Fluorescence polarization screening for allosteric small molecule ligands of the Cholecystokinin Receptor [PDF]

, 2011
The success in screening for drug candidates is highly dependent on the power of the strategy implemented. In this work, we report and characterize a novel fluorescent benzodiazepine antagonist of the type 1 cholecystokinin receptor (3-(3-(7-fluoro-1-(2 ...

Visceral pain-related acute actions of cerulein on mouse and human sensory neurons

Molecular Pain
Cerulein is an orthologue of cholecystokinin, which is often used to induce acute pancreatitis in pre-clinical studies. In these models, animals show signs of pain, and this is the most common complaint of patients with acute pancreatitis.

DIFFERENCES IN ETHANOL INGESTION BETWEEN CHOLECYSTOKININ-A RECEPTOR DEFICIENT AND -B RECEPTOR DEFICIENT MICE [PDF]

Alcohol and Alcoholism, 2005
Cholecystokinin (CCK) modulates dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens through the CCK-A receptor (CCK-AR). The dopaminergic neurotransmission between the ventral tegmental area and the limbic forebrain is a critical neurobiological component of alcohol and drug self-administration.

Changes in gastrointestinal motility and gut hormone secretion after Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy for individuals with severe obesity

Clinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Background Bariatric surgery is very effective in long‐term weight management. The present study was undertaken to investigate the short‐term effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and of Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on (a) gastrointestinal (GI) motility, that is gastric emptying and oro‐cecal transit time and (b) secretion of regulatory gut ...
