Genetically‐targeted control of the spinal cord and peripheral nervous system

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Application of genetically‐targeted stimulation for treating diseases or injuries outside the brain. Optogenetic and chemogenetic systems have been developed for dysfunction in the cochlea, spinal cord, dorsal root ganglia (DRGs), peripheral nerves, lower urinary tract, and enteric nervous system (ENS). Created with Biorender.com.

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 ...

Cholinergic System Changes in Dopa‐Unresponsive Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Freezing of gait (FoG) is a debilitating mobility disturbance that becomes increasingly resistant to dopaminergic pharmacotherapies with advancing Parkinson's disease (PD). The pathophysiology underlying the response of FoG to dopaminergic treatment is poorly understood.

A photoisomerizable muscarinic antagonist. Studies of binding and of conductance relaxations in frog heart [PDF]

, 1982
These experiments employ the photoisomerizable compound, 3,3'-bis- [alpha-(trimethylammonium)methyl]azobenzene (Bis-Q), to study the response to muscarinic agents in frog myocardium. In homogenates from the heart, trans-Bis-Q blocks the binding of [3H]-N-

High affinity acylating antagonists for muscarinic receptors [PDF]

Life Sciences, 1992
The muscarinic antagonists pirenzepine and telenzepine were derivatized as alkylamino derivatives at a site on the molecules corresponding to a region of bulk tolerance in receptor binding. The distal primary amino groups were coupled to the cross-linking reagent meta-phenylene diisothiocyanate, resulting in two isothiocyanate derivatives that were ...

Molecular Tools to Study and Control Dopaminergic Neurotransmission With Light

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dopaminergic neurotransmission is involved in several important brain functions, such as motor control, learning, reward‐motivated behavior, and emotions. Dysfunctions of dopaminergic system may lead to the development of various neurological and psychiatric disorders, like Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, depression, and addictions ...

Xanomeline‐Trospium Chloride (Cobenfy): A New Era in Managing Schizophrenia—Comparative Effectiveness and Economic Challenges

Medicine Advances, EarlyView.
Xanomeline‐trospium chloride (cobenfy) is a muscarinic agonist used to treat hallucinations and psychotic illnesses such as Alzheimer's and Schizophrenia. It has been constructed for patients who are unable to tolerate dopamine‐targeting therapies and a comparison is drawn against other similar drugs with variables like cost, mechanism of action ...

β3‐Adrenoceptor Agonist Effects on the Urinary Bladder Beyond Detrusor Relaxation

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims β3‐Adrenoceptor agonists such as mirabegron or vibegron reach pharmacokinetic steady‐state within a few days. However, maximum improvements in symptoms of the overactive bladder syndrome are reached at time points later than 4 weeks, that is, detrusor smooth muscle relaxation cannot fully explain clinical effects.

Quantitative surface field analysis: learning causal models to predict ligand binding affinity and pose. [PDF]

, 2018
We introduce the QuanSA method for inducing physically meaningful field-based models of ligand binding pockets based on structure-activity data alone. The method is closely related to the QMOD approach, substituting a learned scoring field for a pocket ...

Acetylcholine-treated murine dendritic cells promote inflammatory lung injury [PDF]

, 2019
In recent years a non-neuronal cholinergic system has been described in immune cells, which is often usually activated during the course of inflammatory processes. To date, it is known that Acetylcholine (ACh), a neurotransmitter extensively expressed in
