Discovery of a Small Molecule Activator of Slack (Kcnt1) Potassium Channels That Significantly Reduces Scratching in Mouse Models of Histamine‐Independent and Chronic Itch

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 15, April 17, 2024.
The potassium channel Slack is highly expressed in sensory neurons that sense itch. In this study, several new compounds that activate Slack are developed. It is found that the lead molecule, compound 6, effectively inhibits scratching elicited by multiple pruritogens in mice establishing Slack activation as a novel pharmacological strategy for the ...

Blockade D2 dopamine receptors as a new approach to correction of violations in alveolar parenchyma and regulation of endothelial progenitor cells in pulmonary emphysema [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
On the model of emphysema of the lungs caused by an extract of cigarette smoke or elastase, it was shown that spiperone has an anti-inflammatory effect, reduces the area of emphysema, stimulates the regeneration of alveolar cells and the microvascular ...

Discrimination and Quantification of Glomerular Receptor Subtypes for Atrial Natriuretic Factor (Anf) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Binding sites for atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) were determined on isolated rat glomeruli as well as on glomerular membranes. To define optimal conditions, binding of ANF was investigated varying incubation time, temperature and protein concentration ...

Anxious‐depressive attack and rejection sensitivity—Toward a new approach to treatment‐resistant depression

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 17-28, March 2024.
The structural equation model of the relationships between rejectionsensitivity (RS) and anxious‐depressive attack (ADA). RS contributes significantly to the onset of ADA. Abstract This paper aimed to find clues to treatment‐resistant depression (TRD) solutions.

Elevated Cholesterol in the Coxiella burnetii Intracellular Niche Is Bacteriolytic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Coxiella burnetii is an intracellular bacterial pathogen and a significant cause of culture-negative endocarditis in the United States. Upon infection, the nascent Coxiella phagosome fuses with the host endocytic pathway to form a large lysosome-like ...

Effects of chronic haloperidol treatment on the expression of fear memory and fear memory extinction in the cued fear‐conditioned rats

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 197-205, March 2024.
Chronic haloperidol impacts fear memory differently than single doses. Our study unveils how chronic D2R antagonist treatment alters fear memory expression and extinction in rats, offering crucial insights into potential therapeutic approaches for fear memory disorders.

Alcohol-related expectancies are associated with the D2 dopamine receptor and GABAa receptor B3 subunit genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Molecular genetic research has identified promising markers of alcohol dependence, including alleles of the D2 dopamine receptor (DRD2) and the GABAA receptor ¬3 subunit (GABRB3) genes.

Fluorescent Tools for the Imaging of Dopamine D2‐Like Receptors**

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 25, Issue 2, January 15, 2024.
In this study, we have identified UR‐MN212 (20), a spiperone‐based fluorescent ligand bearing a 5‐TAMRA dye, as suitable for fluorescence microscopy at the D2R. The binding affinity in the single‐digit nanomolar range could be determined in radioligand competition binding and molecular brightness studies at D2‐like receptors.

Drug interactions with lipid membranes: the effects of drug and lipid structure upon rates of ester hydrolysis

open access: yes, 2012
The transport of compounds around the body has been a topic of interest for many years, and the advent of non-invasive biological imaging in living tissue has made huge advances in the characterisation and localisation of cellular receptors for use in ...

Pharmacological profiles of aminoindanes, piperazines, and pipradrol derivatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Aminoindanes, piperazines, and pipradrol derivatives are novel psychoactive substances found in "Ecstasy" tablets as replacements for 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) or substances sold as "ivory wave." The pharmacology of these MDMA- and ...
