  • Comparative Efficacy and Acceptability of Pharmacological Treatments in the Acute Phase Treatment of Bipolar Depression: a Multi
    COMPARATIVE EFFICACY AND ACCEPTABILITY OF PHARMACOLOGICAL TREATMENTS IN THE ACUTE PHASE TREATMENT OF BIPOLAR DEPRESSION: A MULTIPLE TREATMENT META-ANALYSIS [PROTOCOL] Tomofumi Miura, Toshi A. Furukawa, Hisashi Noma, Shiro Tanaka, Keisuke Motomura, Hiroshi Mitsuyasu, Satomi Katsuki, Andrea Cipriani, Sarah Stockton, John Geddes, Georgia Salanti, Shigenobu Kanba Background Description of the condition In late 19th century, Emil Kraepelin classified the major endogenous psychoses into two psychotic illnesses, manic-depressive illness and dementia praecox (Kraepelin’s dichotomy) (Trede et al. , 2005). His concept of manic-depressive illness had covered all of the major clinical forms of severe, moderate and mild melancholia. In 1957, Leonhard proposed to distinguish Kraepelin’s manic-depressive illness into bipolar illness, in which patients had histories of both depression and mania, and monopolar illness, in which patients only had histories of depression (Leonhard, 1979). This basic idea of the bipolar-unipolar distinction was supported by Angst and by Perris in 1966 (Angst, 1966, Perris, 1966), and it continues in the recent diagnostic classification system of mood disorders in DSM-IV(American Psychiatric Association, 1994) and ICD-10 (WHO, 1993). Bipolar disorder is a complex disorder, which is characterized by recurrent episodes of depression and mania (bipolar I disorder) or hypomania (bipolar II disorder)(American Psychiatric Association, 1994). The lifetime prevalence of any bipolar disorders, bipolar I and II disorders have been estimated at 1.1%, 0.7% and 0.5% respectively using the World Mental Health Survey version of the WHO Composite International Diagnostic Interview (Suppes et al. , 2001). The mean age at onset of bipolar disorder is reported to be in the early 20s, but its complex clinical features make its diagnosis difficult and there is a difference of about 8 years between age at onset and age at first treatment (Suppes, Leverich, 2001).

  • Conformational Flexibility of Buspirone Analogues from X-Ray in the Solids and Nmr in Solution
    CONFORMATIONAL FLEXIBILITY OF BUSPIRONE ANALOGUES FROM X-RAY IN THE SOLIDS AND NMR IN SOLUTION Anna Bielenica 1, Andrzej Zimniak 2, Izabela Dyba áa3, Anna E. Kozio á3, Marta Struga 1 1 Department of Medical Chemistry, Medical University of Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland 2 Department of Physical Chemistry, Medical University of Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland 3 Faculty of Chemistry, Maria Curie-Sk áodowska University, Lublin, Poland Bioactive molecular conformation of a drug is one of the key points for understanding the ligand-receptor interactions. N-substituted arylpiperazines are important class of 5-HT receptor ligands (particularly 5-HT 1A , 5-HT 2A and 5-HT 7) widely used in the treatment of anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, sleep and memory disorders. Majority of compounds of this group possess hydrocarbon linker of different length and type, which connects the arylpiperazine moiety with the second terminal group, e. g. cyclic imide. According to SAR (structure-activity relationship) analyses, the presence of an aryl group at N4 atom of the piperazine ring is critical in respect to the biological activity of these compounds. The protonated nitrogen atom forms the hydrogen bond with the carboxyl oxygen of the Asp 3.32 side chain, that is crucial for the interaction with the 5-HT receptors. In addition, the aromatic ring stabilizes the ligand binding by a CH…ʌ interaction with the Phe 6.52 residue. Nowak et al. claimed that o-methoxy-phenyl moieties of a ligand form a hydrogen bond with the hydroxyl group of Ser 5.42 [1]. Some authors have underlined also a role of the terminal hydrophobic imide part in a stabilization of the ligand-receptor complex by ʌ…ʌ and/or dipole…dipole interactions [2].

PREFACE This thesis is split into a pharmacology part and a toxicology part. The pharmacology part consists of investigations on the monoamine transporter and receptor interactions of traditional and newly emerged drugs, mainly stimulants and psychedelics; the toxicology part consists of investigations on mechanisms of hepatocellular toxicity of synthetic cathinones. All research described in this thesis has been published in peer-reviewed journals, and was performed between October 2014 and June 2018 in the Division of Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology at the Department of Biomedicine of the University Hospital Basel and University of Basel, and partly at the pRED Roche Innovation Center Basel at F.
