Effects of novel muscarinic M3 receptor ligand C1213 in pulmonary arterial hypertension models. [PDF]

, 2016
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a complex disease comprising a pathologic remodeling and thickening of the pulmonary vessels causing an after load on the right heart ventricle that can result in ventricular failure. Triggered by oxidative stress, episodes

Distribution of dissociation constant values of muscarinic agonists

Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1989
AbstractThe frequency distributions of dissociation constant values of some muscarinic agonists (carbachol, muscarone and cis-2-methyl-5-trimethylammoniummethyl-1,3-oxathiolane) obtained on guinea-pig ileum and atria and rat urinary bladder have been examined to see if the means of the dissociation constant values and the statistical tests for their ...

3,4‐Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) does not induce robust psychomotor activation and 50‐kHz ultrasonic vocalisations in tryptophan hydroxylase 2 (Tph2)‐deficient rats lacking serotonin in the central nervous system

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1539-1556, April 2026.
Background and Purpose 3,4‐Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), commonly known as ecstasy, is a psychostimulant with entactogenic properties and known to induce arousal and euphoria. As an amphetamine derivate, MDMA acts on the monoamine systems in the brain and stimulates release of dopamine (DA), noradrenaline (NA) and serotonin (5‐HT), yet their ...

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

, 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 ...

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

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1364-1389, April 2026.
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

Navigating the Ethereal Tightrope: The Nanogenerator Manipulates Neurons for Immune Equilibrium

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
This review explores how nanogenerators modulate neuroimmune responses, offering innovative strategies for treating neurological disorders. By interfacing with neural pathways, they enable precise control of immune activity, especially via vagus nerve stimulation.

Olanzapine Attenuates the Morphine‐Induced Conditioned Place Preference: The Involvement of the D2‐Like Dopamine Receptors

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
The results of this study demonstrated that olanzapine can inhibit morphine‐induced CPP behavior during the acquisition, expression, and extinction phases. These effects are likely mediated by the inhibition of dopamine receptors and a reduction in D2R protein expression in the HIP.

Evaluating and Determining the Effects of Psychotropic Drugs on Motor Vehicle Driving Performance: Key Considerations of the Japanese Guideline and Criteria for Clinical Implementation of Evidence

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 46, Issue 1, March 2026.
The Japanese guideline and criteria for evaluating and determining the effects of psychotropic drugs on motor vehicle driving performance enable the clinical implementation of evidence by assessing “persistence of clinically meaningful impairment”. ABSTRACT The cross‐national differences in automobile driving precautions stated in psychotropic drug ...

Can Patient Education Lead the Way? Head‐To‐Head Comparison of EXACT and CERT for Early Recognition of Acute COPD Exacerbations

Respirology, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 256-264, March 2026.
Daily head‐to‐head comparison of EXACT vs. CERT for early detection of acute COPD exacerbations. Both tools accurately identified exacerbations at diagnosis (AUC≈0.9), but CERT detected worsening one day earlier (p = 0.006). CERT's simplicity and free access support rapid patient self‐monitoring and may enable timely intervention. See related editorial

Muscarinic receptor agonists and positive allosteric modulators in animal models of psychosis: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis [version 2; peer review: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations]

F1000Research
Background Muscarinic receptor agonism and positive allosteric modulation is a promising mechanism of action for treating psychosis, not present in most D2R-blocking antipsychotics.
