Glycine Transporters and Receptors as Targets for Analgesics [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
The suitability of modulating glycinergic neurotransmission for the treatment of inflammatory and chronic pain has gained widespread recognition, with glycine receptors (GlyRs) and glycine transporters (GlyT1 and GlyT2) now considered key therapeutic targets [...]

Glycine increases the number of somatostatin receptors and somatostatin-mediated inhibition of the adenylate cyclase system in the rat hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The glycine and somatostatin (SS) neurotransmission systems in the brain have been implicated in the function of sensory, motor, and nociceptive pathways.

Effects of sarcosine and N, N-dimethylglycine on NMDA receptor-mediated excitatory field potentials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Sarcosine, a glycine transporter type 1 inhibitor and an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor co-agonist at the glycine binding site, potentiates NMDA receptor function.

Evidence for Respiratory Neuromodulator Interdependence after Cholinergic Disruption in the Ventral Respiratory Column [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Reverse dialysis of the muscarinic receptor antagonist, atropine (ATR, 50 mM), into the pre-Bötzinger Complex region of the ventral respiratory column (VRC) of awake and sleeping goats increases breathing frequency and serotonin (5-HT), substance P (SP),

BENZODIAZEPINES AND CENTRAL GLYCINE RECEPTORS [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 1976
In cats, anaesthetized with pentobarbitone, intravenous diazepam (minimum dose 3.0 mg/kg) enhanced dorsal root potentials but did not significantly diminish the reduction by electrophoretic strychnine of the inhibitory action of electrophoretic glycine on dorsal horn interneurones.

Block of NMDA receptor channels by endogenous neurosteroids: implications for the agonist induced conformational states of the channel vestibule [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) mediate synaptic plasticity, and their dysfunction is implicated in multiple brain disorders. NMDARs can be allosterically modulated by numerous compounds, including endogenous neurosteroid pregnanolone sulfate ...

The Functional DRD3 Ser9Gly Polymorphism (rs6280) Is Pleiotropic, Affecting Reward as Well as Movement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Abnormalities of motivation and behavior in the context of reward are a fundamental component of addiction and mood disorders. Here we test the effect of a functional missense mutation in the dopamine 3 receptor (DRD3) gene (ser9gly, rs6280) on reward ...

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

open access: yes, 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.

Identification of critical residues in loop E in the 5-HT(3AS)R binding site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BACKGROUND: The serotonin type 3 receptor (5-HT(3)R) is a member of a superfamily of ligand gated ion channels. All members of this family share a large degree of sequence homology and presumably significant structural similarity.

Glycine Receptors in Spinal Nociceptive Control—An Update [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Diminished inhibitory control of spinal nociception is one of the major culprits of chronic pain states. Restoring proper synaptic inhibition is a well-established rational therapeutic approach explored by several pharmaceutical companies. A particular challenge arises from the need for site-specific intervention to avoid deleterious side effects such ...
