Altered Dopamine Metabolism and Response to Treatment with Levodopa/Carbidopa in MCT8 Deficiency

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Allan‐Herndon‐Dudley syndrome (AHDS)/monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) deficiency is a rare X‐linked encephalopathy caused by SLC16A2 variants, impairing thyroid hormone (TH) transport into the brain. This leads to early central nervous system (CNS) TH deficiency, affecting brain maturation.

D2-like dopamine receptors mediate the response to amphetamine in a mouse model of ADHD

Neurobiology of Disease, 2007
The mechanisms underlying the effects of psychostimulants in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are not well understood, but indirect evidence implicates D2 dopamine receptors. Here we dissect the components of dopaminergic neurotransmission

Modifying Antibiotic Activity of Synthetic Thiadiazine Analogs Against MDR Bacteria and ADMET Analysis

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
The study demonstrated that thidiazine compounds potentiated the action of antibiotics. The compounds associated with norfloxacin against S. aureus showed greater significance in relation to the other medications. The indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to the selection of resistant bacterial strains, significantly reducing the effectiveness of ...

Spatial Frequency Selectivity Is Impaired in Dopamine D2 Receptor Knockout Mice

Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2018
Dopamine is a neurotransmitter implicated in several brain functions, including vision. In the present study, we investigated the impacts of the lack of D2 dopamine receptors on the structure and function of the primary visual cortex (V1) of D2-KO mice ...

Dysbindin promotes the post-endocytic sorting of G protein-coupled receptors to lysosomes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Dysbindin, a cytoplasmic protein long known to function in the biogenesis of specialized lysosome-related organelles (LROs), has been reported to reduce surface expression of D2 dopamine receptors in neurons.

Advances in cholesterol and lipoproteins detection for healthcare: A review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Cholesterol is one of the main biomarkers related to the development of cardiovascular diseases. Its detection still relies on traditional methods of analysis, such as gas and liquid chromatographies. Detection of free cholesterol in saliva with redox or enzymatic sensors or detection of lipoproteins in blood with aptamer sensors are currently the most

Dichotomous Dopaminergic Control of Ventral Pallidum Neurons

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
The ventral pallidum (VP) is crucially involved in reward processing. Dopaminergic afferents reach the VP from the ventral tegmental area (VTA). Recent in vivo studies suggest dopamine application increase the firing in the VP.

Tumor suppression and improvement in immune systems by specific activation of dopamine D1-receptor-expressing neurons in the nucleus accumbens

Molecular Brain, 2022
Recent research has suggested that the mesolimbic dopamine network that mainly terminates in the nucleus accumbens may positively control the peripheral immune system.

Plasma Membrane Compartmentalization of D2 Dopamine Receptors [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Plasma membrane microcompartments could allow different signaling pathways to operate more efficiently and prevent cross-talk. We utilized a novel in-cell biotin transfer assay to demonstrate that the majority of plasma membrane-expressed D2 dopamine receptor (D2R) is microcompartmentalized within detergent-resistant structures.

Current Insights Into Individualized Diagnosis and Treatment of Allergic Rhinitis Based on Phenotype and Endotype

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa characterized by allergen sensitization and the involvement of multiple inflammatory mediators. Currently, the treatment of AR mainly includes symptomatic relief, anti‐inflammatory therapy, and nerve desensitization. However, these treatments have limitations in fully
