Engineering of Challenging G Protein-Coupled Receptors for Structure Determination and Biophysical Studies

Molecules, 2021
Membrane proteins such as G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) exert fundamental biological functions and are involved in a multitude of physiological responses, making these receptors ideal drug targets.

NovoMol: Recurrent Neural Network for Orally Bioavailable Drug Design and Validation on PDGFRα Receptor [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Longer timelines and lower success rates of drug candidates limit the productivity of clinical trials in the pharmaceutical industry. Promising de novo drug design techniques help solve this by exploring a broader chemical space, efficiently generating new molecules, and providing improved therapies.

Current trends in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics. [PDF]

, 2019
Pharmacokinetics (PK) is the study of the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) processes of a drug. Understanding PK properties is essential for drug development and precision medication.

Role of dopamine D1-like receptors in methamphetamine locomotor responses of D2 receptor knockout mice [PDF]

, 2008
Behavioral sensitization to psychostimulants manifests as an increased locomotor response with repeated administration. Dopamine systems are accepted to play a fundamental role in sensitization, but the role of specific dopamine receptor subtypes has not

Gray-Matter Volume, Midbrain Dopamine D2/D3 Receptors and Drug Craving in Methamphetamine Users

Molecular Psychiatry, 2015
Dysfunction of the mesocorticolimbic system has a critical role in clinical features of addiction. Despite evidence suggesting that midbrain dopamine receptors influence amphetamine-induced dopamine release and that dopamine is involved in ...

Drugs and receptors

Continuing Education in Anaesthesia Critical Care & Pain, 2004
There are four principle protein targets with which drugs can interact: enzymes (e.g. neostigmine and acetyl cholinesterase), membrane carriers (e.g. tricyclic antidepressants and catecholamine uptake-1), ion channels (e.g. nimodipine and voltage-gated Ca2+ channels) and receptors.

High-throughput screening in larval zebrafish identifies novel potent sedative-hypnotics [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Many general anesthetics were discovered empirically, but primary screens to find new sedative-hypnotics in drug libraries have not used animals, limiting the types of drugs discovered.

Hydrocarbon molar water solubility predicts NMDA vs. GABAA receptor modulation. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundMany anesthetics modulate 3-transmembrane (such as NMDA) and 4-transmembrane (such as GABAA) receptors. Clinical and experimental anesthetics exhibiting receptor family specificity often have low water solubility. We hypothesized that the molar
