Psychedelics as pharmacotherapeutics for substance use disorders: A scoping review on clinical trials and perspectives on underlying neurobiology

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Theorized mechanism of dopamine homeostasis restoration in the nucleus accumbens core induced by a psychedelic intervention. Abstract Psychedelics have garnered great attention in recent years as treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression because of their ability to alter consciousness and afflicted cognitive ...

Calcium Signaling Pathways Involved in Long-Term Potentiation at Excitatory Synapses on Parvalbumin Positive Fast-Spiking GABAergic Neurons in the Mouse Visual Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesCell Journal, 2009
Objective: Recently, we reported the presence of metabotropic glutamate receptor type 5(mGluR-5) dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) at excitatory synapses on fast-spikingGABAergic (FS-GABA) cells in the visual cortex.

Astrocytes Control Neuronal Excitability in the Nucleus Accumbens

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2007
Though accumulating evidence shows that the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) mediates some of the actions of extracellular glutamate after cocaine use, the cellular events underlying this action are poorly understood.

Reduced Expression of Cerebral Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Subtype 5 in Men with Fragile X Syndrome

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
Glutamatergic receptor expression is mostly unknown in adults with fragile X syndrome (FXS). Favorable behavioral effects of negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) of the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) in fmr1 knockout (KO) mouse ...

Mechanisms associated with activation of intracellular metabotropic glutamate receptor, mGluR5 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The group 1 metabotropic glutamate receptor, mGluR5, is found on the cell surface as well as on intracellular membranes where it can mediate both overlapping and unique signaling effects.

Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

Evaluation of preclinical antipsychotic models used to support first‐in‐human clinical trials

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Schizophrenia is regarded as a complex and heterogeneous psychiatric disorder, characterised by diverse symptoms and comorbidities, which complicate both clinical management and drug development. Current pharmacological treatment, primarily based on dopamine D2 receptor antagonism or partial agonism, which has not markedly progressed since the

Does Corticothalamic Feedback Control Cortical Velocity Tuning? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The thalamus is the major gate to the cortex and its contribution to cortical receptive field properties is well established. Cortical feedback to the thalamus is, in turn, the anatomically dominant input to relay cells, yet its influence on thalamic ...

Determining the neurotransmitter concentration profile at active synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Establishing the temporal and concentration profiles of neurotransmitters during synaptic release is an essential step towards understanding the basic properties of inter-neuronal communication in the central nervous system.
