Identification of a domain which affects kinetics and antagonistic potency of clozapine at 5-HT3 receptors. [PDF]

, 2009
The widely used atypical antipsychotic clozapine is a potent competitive antagonist at 5-HT(3) receptors which may contribute to its unique psychopharmacological profile. Clozapine binds to 5-HT(3) receptors of various species.

Validation of the Patient Health Questionnaire‐2 (PHQ‐2) in Detecting Depression Among Older Adults

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
PHQ‐2 effectively screens for geriatric depression with the optimal cut‐off of 3 points. ABSTRACT Objectives Depression screening tools like the Patient Health Questionnaire‐2 (PHQ‐2) are commonly used to detect depression. However, its performance in elderly populations has been less extensively studied compared to its broader adult use.

Seasonal Affective Disorder and Serotonin-Related Polymorphisms

Neurobiology of Disease, 2001
Disturbances in central serotonergic systems have been hypothesized to be involved in seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Association between SAD and the shorter allele of the serotonin transporter promoter repeat length polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) has been ...

Pathogenic PF4/Polyanion ELISA‐Negative Antibodies in HIT

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Platelet factor 4‐polyanion enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) are considered highly sensitive for diagnosing heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), such that current practice guidelines recommend use of ELISA‐negative results to exclude HIT.

Oligonucleotide‐induced alternative splicing of serotonin 2C receptor reduces food intake

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2016
The serotonin 2C receptor regulates food uptake, and its activity is regulated by alternative pre‐mRNA splicing. Alternative exon skipping is predicted to generate a truncated receptor protein isoform, whose existence was confirmed with a new antiserum ...

Genetic Risk and High Burden of Depression and Suicide in the Maya‐Mestizo Population of Yucatán, México

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Major depression and suicide are critical public health concerns, particularly in underrepresented populations with unique genetic and sociocultural contexts. The Maya‐mestizo population presents the highest suicide rates in the country but remains understudied in psychiatric genetics. This study evaluated the association between three genetic

5-ht inhibition of rat insulin 2 promoter cre recombinase transgene and proopiomelanocortin neuron excitability in the mouse arcuate nucleus [PDF]

, 2009
A number of anti-obesity agents have been developed that enhance hypothalamic 5-HT transmission. Various studies have demonstrated that arcuate neurons, which express proopiomelanocortin peptides (POMC neurons), and neuropeptide Y with agouti-related ...

Citrus aurantium honey‐mediated gut homeostasis and anti‐inflammation via Thorl/Nprl2‐TORC1 signaling: Network pharmacology and Drosophila validation

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The study employed a four‐tiered strategy: (1) UHPLC‐FTMS profiling of Citrus aurantium honey to characterize its chemical composition; (2) network pharmacology analysis integrating target prediction, protein–protein interaction networks, and KEGG pathway enrichment to identify the Thor1/Nprl2‐TORC1 axis as a key mechanistic pathway; (3) in vitro ...
