Pharmacological properties of centrally‐administered agents which interfere with neurotransmitter function: a comparison with the central depressant effects of ouabain [PDF]

British Journal of Pharmacology, 1973
Summary Centrally administered sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) produced hypothermia, central nervous depression and potentiation of the antinociceptive effect of morphine. These effects resemble those seen with centrally administered ouabain. Furthermore, the interactions of (+)‐amphetamine, desmethylimipramine and nialamide with DDC and ouabain ...

Extracellular ATP shows synergistic enhancement of DNA synthesis when combined with agents that are active in wound healing or as neurotransmitters

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1990
The polypeptides PDGF, TGF alpha, and EGF have previously been shown by others to stimulate proliferation of fibroblasts and keratinocytes in the process of wound healing. Here we demonstrate that extracellular ATP, ADP or AMPPNP caused synergistic enhancement of DNA synthesis in 3T6 mouse fibroblasts and BALB/MK keratinocytes when combined with any of

RetS senses neurotransmitter norepinephrine and adrenergic agents to regulatePseudomonas aeruginosavirulence [PDF]

AbstractBacterial cells employ diverse mechanisms to perceive and respond to host-associated molecules, coordinate intracellular signal transduction, and engage in interkingdom communications. In this study, we firstly discovered that the adrenergic antagonist dronedarone (DDR) effectively suppresses quorum sensing (QS) and pathogenesis of the ...

Folic acid as a potential therapeutic agent for Alzheimer's disease: Effects on inflammatory cytokines, amyloid deposition, and neurotransmitter metabolism

Journal of Medical Biochemistry
Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system characterized by neuroinflammation and amyloid deposition. Folic acid (FA), a B vitamin, may improve the course of AD by modulating inflammation and neuroprotection.
