  2024-03-08

  

  In fact, serotonin is a major modulator of dopaminergic (DA) neuronal activity through the 5-HT2C receptor. Studies have shown that the selective 5-HT2C receptor agonist Ro60-0175 blocks the burst-firing of mesolimbic DA neurons, which project from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the nucleus acc

  2024-03-08

  

  The potential use of derivatives belonging to this series as therapeutic agents mostly depends on their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. The pharmacokinetic phase includes absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) of the studied compounds. Therefore, preliminary data for theore

  2024-03-08

  

  sVRPs were more sensitive to ABT-702 than MSRs. This result agrees with previous reports that the activation of A1 receptors more potently inhibits sVRPs than MSRs (Nakamura et al., 1997, Otsuguro et al., 2009). Importantly, sVRPs are thought to reflex C-fiber-evoked nociceptive transmission. Nocice

  2024-03-08

  

  A borderline significant effect of women's age has been observed for ADA6 only. For ADA2 the proportion of the *1/*1 genotype is 69.4% in women aged ≤36 years vs. 66.9% in women aged ≥36 years (p=0.944). The proportion of ADA6*1 allele carriers is 32.6% in women aged ≤36 years vs. 49. 8 in women age

  In order to postulate its binding mode in APN, PHA-665752 13v was docked into the active site of APN (PDB code: 2DQM) using Sybyl_X 1.3. As illustrated in Fig. 5A, the catalytic zinc ion of APN was chelated by the hydroxamate moiety of 13v, and the S1, S1′ and S2′ pockets of APN were occupied by th

  In the vasculature, it is known that A2A and A2B adenosine receptors are stimulatory for adenylyl-cyclase, leading to cyclic-AMP (cAMP) production and vasodilation, while the A1 and A3 adenosine receptors are linked to the inhibitory Gi, suppressing adenylyl-cyclase and favoring contraction. However

  Among the enzymes involved in adenosine metabolism, adenosine kinase plays an important role in regulating formation and release of endogenous adenosine in cardiomyocytes as well as vascular endothelial cells Decking et al., 1997, Kowaluk et al., 1998, Smolenski et al., 1994. Inhibition of adenosine

  In addition to the above-mentioned synaptic mechanisms, the serotonergic system also has a critical role in the antidepressant effects of mGlu2/3 receptor antagonists. Indeed, we previously reported that mGlu2/3 receptor antagonists increased the firing rate of serotonin neurons in the dorsal raphe

  Various cardiovascular diseases show a high occurrence of autophagosomes. Whereas basal autophagy is required for the proper functioning of cardiomyocytes [82], the deletion of Atg5 gene in myocardium shows a high risk of cardiomyopathy [83].
