Intepirdine Derivatives Possessing Dual 5HT6 Antagonism / HDAC6 Inhibitory Activity

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
In the context of developing therapies for dementias and cognitive decline, potent dual acting molecules targeting the GPCR 5HT6 and the enzyme HDAC6 with favorable BBB penetration profile were designed and synthesised. Abstract Alzheimer's Disease (AD) impacts significantly the quality of life of people aged over 65 years old, while millions more ...

Conserved contributions of NMDA receptor subtypes to synaptic responses in lamina II spinal neurons across early postnatal development

Molecular Brain, 2020
NMDA receptors are heteromeric complexes that contribute to excitatory synaptic transmission and plasticity. The presence of specific variants of GluN2 subunits in these complexes enables diversity in NMDA receptor function and regulation.

NSAIDS AS MODULATORS OF CATION CHANNELS: FENAMATES REPURPOSING IN CHANNELOPATHIES

ChemMedChem, Accepted Article.
Cationic ion channels are transmembrane proteins that regulate the flux of cations (potassium, sodium, and calcium) across cell membrane, playing a pivotal role in many cellular functions. Disruptions of their activity can lead to the so‐called genetic or acquired channelopathies, a heterogeneous group of diseases that affect multiple human systems ...

Selective vulnerabilities of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors during brain aging

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2010
N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are present in high density within the cerebral cortex and hippocampus and play an important role in learning and memory.

Psychosis associated with anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor encephalitis

Open Journal of Psychiatry and Allied Sciences, 2020
Aim: Anti-N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis is commonly seen in women with various neuropsychiatric symptoms. Here we report a case of psychosis associated with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis.

Ethanol enhances neurosteroidogenesis in hippocampal pyramidal neurons by paradoxical NMDA receptor activation [PDF]

, 2011
Using an antibody against 5α-reduced neurosteroids, predominantly allopregnanolone, we found that immunostaining in the CA1 region of rat hippocampal slices was confined to pyramidal neurons.

Diabetic retinopathy and the NMDA receptor [PDF]

Drug News & Perspectives, 2002
Diabetic retinopathy is a major sight-threatening disease and is a leading cause of blindness. There is an emerging body of evidence that suggests that neuronal changes are an early phenomenon in the diabetic retina and that several cell types are affected, including the ganglion cells.

Bioequivalence of a Donepezil/Memantine 10/20 mg Fixed‐Dose Combination Versus Single‐Component Tablets in Healthy Korean Males

Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, EarlyView.
Abstract A fixed‐dose combination (FDC) tablet formulation of donepezil/memantine (10/20 mg) was developed to improve medication compliance in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study compared the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics and safety profiles of an FDC formulation (donepezil/memantine [10/20 mg]) and single components (SCs) of ...

Action of GABAB receptor on local network oscillation in somatosensory cortex of oral part: focusing on NMDA receptor

Journal of Physiological Sciences
The balance of activity between glutamatergic and GABAergic networks is particularly important for oscillatory neural activities in the brain. Here, we investigated the roles of GABAB receptors in network oscillation in the oral somatosensory cortex (OSC)

FGF-2 Induces Neuronal Death through Upregulation of System xc- [PDF]

, 2014
The cystine/glutamate antiporter (system xc-) transports cystine into cell in exchange for glutamate. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) upregulates system xc- selectively on astrocytes, which leads to increased cystine uptake, the substrate for ...
