Gabapentinoids‐duloxetine combination therapy for chronic pain: A mechanism oriented rational to bridge theoretical knowledge and real life setting

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Chronic pain represents a complex debilitating condition that extends beyond the protective function of physiological pain, often persisting as an independent disease entity. Chronic primary and secondary pain syndromes reflect a multifaceted continuum involving nociceptive, neuropathic and nociplastic mechanisms.

Computational study of NMDA conductance and cortical oscillations in schizophrenia

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2014
N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor hypofunction has been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. The illness is also characterized by gamma oscillatory disturbances, which can be evaluated with precise frequency specificity employing ...

Orchestrating the metastatic symphony: the role of extracellular vesicles in the epithelial–mesenchymal transition and pulmonary niche formation of breast cancer

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The complexity of breast cancer (BC) lung metastasis lies in the capacity of tumour cells to interact efficiently with distant organs to promote colonisation, a process that involves the sophisticated coordination of inherent cellular plasticity and the remodelling of the distant microenvironment.

Generalization of NMDA-Receptor Antagonists to the Discriminative Stimulus Effects of κ-Opioid Receptor Agonists U-50,488H, but Not TRK-820 in Rats

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
.: Generalizations of NMDA-receptor antagonists to the discriminative stimulus effects of κ-opioid receptor agonists in rats were examined. Phencyclidine, MK-801, and ketamine, noncompetitive NMDA-receptor antagonists, generalized to the discriminative ...

Cenobamate use in super‐refractory status epilepticus: A report of three cases

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Super‐refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is a neurological emergency with high morbidity and mortality. Cenobamate, a novel antiseizure medication, may be helpful in managing SRSE, but evidence is limited. Methods This retrospective case series reports the use of cenobamate as add‐on therapy in the management of three cases of ...

Acute NMDA toxicity in cultured rat cerebellar granule neurons is accompanied by autophagy induction and late onset autophagic cell death phenotype

BMC Neuroscience, 2010
Background Autophagy, an intracellular response to stress, is characterized by double membrane cytosolic vesicles called autophagosomes. Prolonged autophagy is known to result in autophagic (Type II) cell death.

Exploring the efficacy and safety of perampanel in epilepsia partialis continua: A case series

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Epilepsia partialis continua (EPC) is a form of focal motor status epilepticus (SE), which is commonly drug‐resistant requiring treatment with multiple antiseizure medications (ASM). There are no established guidelines for pharmacological management.

A critical role of spinal Shank2 proteins in NMDA-induced pain hypersensitivity

Molecular Pain, 2017
Background Self-injurious behaviors (SIBs) are devastating traits in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Although deficits in pain sensation might be one of the contributing factors underlying the development of SIBs, the mechanisms have yet to be addressed.

NMDAR‐antibody encephalitis: Seizure semiology and EEG findings

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor antibody encephalitis (NMDAR‐Ab‐E) is an autoantibody‐mediated disorder, characterized by acute development of neuropsychiatric symptoms, seizures, movement disorders, and autonomic instability. Objectives To describe acute seizure semiology and electroencephalogram (EEG) findings in patients with a ...

Dual regulation by ethanol of the inhibitory effects of ketamine on spinal NMDA-induced pressor responses in rats

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2012
Background Acute exposure of ethanol (alcohol) inhibits NMDA receptor function. Our previous study showed that acute ethanol inhibited the pressor responses induced by NMDA applied intrathecally; however, prolonged ethanol exposure may increase the ...
