A tight coupling between β\u3csub\u3e2\u3c/sub\u3eY97 and β\u3csub\u3e2\u3c/sub\u3eF200 of the GABA\u3csub\u3eA\u3c/sub\u3e receptor mediates GABA binding [PDF]
, 2011 The GABAA receptor is an oligopentameric chloride channel that is activated via conformation changes induced upon the binding of the endogenous ligand, GABA, to the extracellular inter-subunit interfaces. Although dozens of amino acid residues at the α/β

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and purpose Positive allosteric modulation of the P2X4 receptor is a potential route to providing cardiovascular benefit through enhancing flow‐dependent arterial vasodilation and providing cardioprotection. However, ligands that selectively enhance P2X4 activity are absent.

Channel blocking properties of a series of nicotinic cholinergic agonists
Biophysical Journal, 1993 Inhibition of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) by channel blockade has been demonstrated with a variety of large organic cations, including several nicotinic agonists. We have studied the kinetics of channel blocking of a series of agonists which vary systematically in size and hydrophobicity due to a hydrocarbon chain from one to six ...

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Addressing complexity in the study of life sciences through Systems Biology and Systems Medicine has been transformative, making Systems Pharmacology the next logical step. In this review, we focus on physical stimuli, whose potential in pharmacology has been neglected, despite demonstrated therapeutic properties.

Slow synaptic transmission in frog sympathetic ganglia [PDF]
, 1986 Bullfrog ganglia contain two classes of neurone, B and C cells, which receive different inputs and exhibit different slow synaptic potentials. B cells, to which most effort has been directed, possess slow and late slow EPSPs.

Role of nicotine receptor partial agonists in tobacco cessation
Indian Journal of Psychiatry, 2014 One in three adults in India uses tobacco, a highly addictive substance in one or other form. In addition to prevention of tobacco use, offering evidence-based cessation services to dependent tobacco users constitutes an important approach in addressing this serious public health problem.

British 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 ...

Animal medical systems from Apis to apes: history, recent advances and future perspectives
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Animal medical systems encompass a wide range of behaviours aimed at maintaining or improving health. It has become clear that these behaviours are not limited to animals treating themselves (self‐medication) but also include the treatment of group members, resulting in the adoption of the more inclusive term “animal medication”.

International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2017 Nematode parasites infect ∼2 billion people world-wide. Infections are treated and prevented by anthelmintic drugs, some of which act on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs).
