Antinociceptive and Anti‐inflammatory Effect of Nicandrin B Isolated From Datura ferox in Zebrafish

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nicandrin B (Nic B), a withanolide isolated from Datura ferox leaves, was investigated for its antinociceptive and anti‐inflammatory effects in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). Animals treated with Nic B (4, 20, and 40 mg/kg) showed no toxicity and maintained normal locomotor activity.

Conserved Phosphorylation of the Myosin1e TH1 Domain Impacts Membrane Association and Function in Yeast and Worms

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells have an intrinsic ability to rapidly respond to environmental change to regulate cell cycle progression and membrane organisation, thereby affecting cell growth and division. The actin cytoskeleton is a highly dynamic complex of proteins that can rapidly reorganise to change the growth pattern of a cell.

Impaired pain sensation in mice lacking prokineticin 2

Molecular Pain, 2006
Prokineticins (PKs), consisting of PK1 and PK2, are a pair of newly identified regulatory peptides. Two closely related G-protein coupled receptors, PKR1 and PKR2, mediate the signaling of PKs. PKs/PKRs participate in the regulation of diverse biological

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 ...

Lateral hypothalamic fast-spiking parvalbumin neurons modulate nociception through connections in the periaqueductal gray area

Scientific Reports, 2019
A pivotal role of the lateral hypothalamus (LH) in regulating appetitive and reward-related behaviors has been evident for decades. However, the contributions of LH circuits to other survival behaviors have been less explored. Here we examine how lateral

Simultaneous impairment of passive avoidance learning and nociception in rats following chronic swim stress

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2016
Background: Stress can alter response to nociception. Under certain circumstances stress enhances nociception, a phenomenon which is called stress-induced hyperalgesia (SIH).

Administration Studies in Equine Antidoping Research: Designing Scientific Investigations to Effectively Direct Medication Control in Racehorses

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pharmacokinetics is the study of the movement of drug in the body and includes the processes of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Pharmacodynamics is the pharmacologic effect of the drug on the body. The pharmacokinetics of a drug determines its pharmacologic effect. Pharmacokinetic studies describe drug concentrations while
