Advanced patient-specific microglia cell models for pre-clinical studies in Alzheimer’s disease
Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an incurable neurodegenerative disorder with a rapidly increasing prevalence worldwide. Current approaches targeting hallmark pathological features of AD have had no consistent clinical benefit. Neuroinflammation is

Decreased [18F]Spiperone Binding in Putamen in Idiopathic Focal Dystonia
In this study we have investigated the pathophysiology of two idiopathic focal dystonias: hand cramp with excessive cocontractions of agonist and antagonist hand or forearm muscles during specific tasks, such as writing, and facial dystonia manifested by

Tyr-MIF-1 Attenuates Development of Tolerance to Spiperone-Induced Catalepsy in Rats
Because the tripeptide MIF-1 (Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2) is known to attenuate the effects of neuroleptic-induced catalepsy as well as neuroleptic-induced proliferation of dopamine (DA) receptors, we studied the related naturally occurring peptide, Tyr-MIF-1 (Tyr ...

Combined treatment with amfonelic acid plus spiperone caused large increases in 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA) and a decrease in dopamine in rat striatum.

Equilibrium models are derived and applied to in vivo binding of spiperone in the rat brain. The models express the concentration of the ligand in the striatum and frontal cortex as a function of the accumulation in the cerebellum.

The effect of chronic neuroleptic treatment on the relationship between the blockade of dopamine (DA) receptors by the neuroleptic drug spiperone and the decline in acetylcholine (ACh) levels was determined in the rat striatum in vivo.

Potentiation of Spiperone-Induced Oral Activity in Rats After Neonatal 6-Hydroxydopamine
The influence of central dopaminergic fibers on drug-induced oral activity in rats has not been well studied. Rats were treated 3 days after birth with bilateral intracerebroventricular 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA; 134 ωg total, base form) to destroy ...

A 15-mer, all-phosphorothioate-modified antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASO) targeted against rat dopamine D3 receptor mRNA (4 mu M, 5 days) significantly reduced (28%) the amount of binding sites labelled with [H-3]spiperone in monolayer cultured ...

3-(2'-[18F]fluoroethyl)spiperone (FESP), a recently developed dopamine D2-receptor binding radiopharmaceutical, was used for dynamic characterization of dopamine-receptor binding in Macaca nemestrina monkeys and humans with positron emission tomography ...
