Detection of the ABCB11930_1931del TC Mutation in Two Suspected Ivermectin-Sensitive Cats and Their Relatives by a Novel TaqMan Allelic Discrimination Assay

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
The multidrug resistance gene MDR1 (syn. ABCB1) encodes for the multidrug efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which is highly expressed at the blood-brain barrier and protects the brain from potentially neurotoxic compounds, such as ivermectin ...

Locomotor and discriminative stimulus effects of N-cyclohexyl butylone and N-cyclohexyl methylone

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
BackgroundN-Cyclohexyl butylone and N-cyclohexyl methylone are cathinones found on the street that produce morbidity and mortality, but are not yet legally controlled, and there has been little or no pharmacological testing of these compounds.

The effects of kappa opioid agonist RU-1205 on local field potentials and behavior in the discriminative stimulus paradigm

open access: yesФармация и фармакология (Пятигорск)
Kappa opioid receptors play a pivotal role in regulating both physiological and cognitive processes. RU-1205, a benzimidazole derivative acting as a specific kappa opioid receptor agonist, has demonstrated the capacity to modulate neuronal activity ...

Experiencing discrimination increases risk taking. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Prior research has revealed racial disparities in health outcomes and health-compromising behaviors, such as smoking and drug abuse. It has been suggested that discrimination contributes to such disparities, but the mechanisms through which this might ...

Evaluation of machine-learning methods for ligand-based virtual screening [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Machine-learning methods can be used for virtual screening by analysing the structural characteristics of molecules of known (in)activity, and we here discuss the use of kernel discrimination and naive Bayesian classifier (NBC) methods for this purpose ...

Drug discrimination in pigeons trained to discriminate among morphine, U50488, a combination of these drugs, and saline [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioural Pharmacology, 2011
This study compared fixed-ratio (FR) and fixed-interval (FI) schedules to investigate the discriminative stimulus properties of μ-opioid and/or κ-opioid receptor agonists. Pigeons were trained to discriminate among morphine (μ agonist), U50488 (κ agonist), the combination, and saline under FR 20-s or FI-300-s schedule.

Conceptualizing cancer drugs as classifiers. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Cancer and healthy cells have distinct distributions of molecular properties and thus respond differently to drugs. Cancer drugs ideally kill cancer cells while limiting harm to healthy cells. However, the inherent variance among cells in both cancer and

Antagonism of a PCP Drug Discrimination by Hallucinogens and Related Drugs [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology, 2000
Drugs such as PCP and MK-801 can cause psychotic reactions in humans by antagonizing NMDA receptors. This action is ultimately toxic to certain cortical neurons and may be one mechanism underlying neurodegenerative diseases, including schizophrenia. It has been reported that hallucinogens such as LSD, DOM, and DOI can block the neurotoxic effects of ...
