INVESTIGATION of NATURAL PRODUCT SCAFFOLDS for the DEVELOPMENT of OPIOID RECEPTOR LIGANDS by Katherine M
INVESTIGATION OF NATURAL PRODUCT SCAFFOLDS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF OPIOID RECEPTOR LIGANDS By Katherine M. Prevatt-Smith Submitted to the graduate degree program in Medicinal Chemistry and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. _________________________________ Chairperson: Dr. Thomas E. Prisinzano _________________________________ Dr. Brian S. J. Blagg _________________________________ Dr. Michael F. Rafferty _________________________________ Dr. Paul R. Hanson _________________________________ Dr. Susan M. Lunte Date Defended: July 18, 2012 The Dissertation Committee for Katherine M. Prevatt-Smith certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: INVESTIGATION OF NATURAL PRODUCT SCAFFOLDS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF OPIOID RECEPTOR LIGANDS _________________________________ Chairperson: Dr. Thomas E. Prisinzano Date approved: July 18, 2012 ii ABSTRACT Kappa opioid (KOP) receptors have been suggested as an alternative target to the mu opioid (MOP) receptor for the treatment of pain because KOP activation is associated with fewer negative side-effects (respiratory depression, constipation, tolerance, and dependence). The KOP receptor has also been implicated in several abuse-related effects in the central nervous system (CNS). KOP ligands have been investigated as pharmacotherapies for drug abuse; KOP agonists have been shown to modulate dopamine concentrations in the CNS as well as attenuate the self-administration of cocaine in a variety of species, and KOP antagonists have potential in the treatment of relapse. One drawback of current opioid ligand investigation is that many compounds are based on the morphine scaffold and thus have similar properties, both positive and negative, to the parent molecule. Thus there is increasing need to discover new chemical scaffolds with opioid receptor activity. -

Pexion, Imepitoin
ANNEX I SUMMARY OF PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS 1 1. NAME OF THE VETERINARY MEDICINAL PRODUCT Pexion 100 mg tablets for dogs Pexion 400 mg tablets for dogs 2. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION One tablet contains: Active substance: Imepitoin 100 mg Imepitoin 400 mg For the full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Tablets White, oblong, half-scored tablets with embedded logo “I 01” (100 mg) or “I 02” (400 mg) on one side. The tablet can be divided into equal halves. 4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 Target species Dog 4.2 Indications for use, specifying the target species For the reduction of the frequency of generalised seizures due to idiopathic epilepsy in dogs for use after careful evaluation of alternative treatment options. 4.3 Contraindications Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients. Do not use in dogs with severely impaired hepatic function, severe renal or severe cardiovascular disorders (see section 4.7). 4.4 Special warnings The pharmacological response to imepitoin may vary and efficacy may not be complete. Nevertheless imepitoin is considered to be a suitable treatment option in some dogs because of its safety profile (see section 5.1). On treatment, some dogs will be free of seizures, in other dogs a reduction of the number of seizures will be observed, whilst others may be non-responders. In non-responders, an increase in seizure frequency may be observed. Should seizures not be adequately controlled, further diagnostic measures and other antiepileptic treatment should be considered. The benefit/risk assessment for the individual dog should take into account the details in the product literature. -

Are Supplements Supplemented? Evaluating the Composition of Complementary and Alternative Medicines Using Mass Spectrometry and Metabolomics
Are supplements supplemented? Evaluating the composition of complementary and alternative medicines using mass spectrometry and metabolomics By Elly Gwyn Crighton BForensics in Forensic Biology & Toxicology (First Class Honours) BSc in Molecular Biology & Biomedical Science This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Perth, Western Australia at Murdoch University 2020 Declaration I declare that: i. The thesis is my own account of my research, except where other sources are acknowledged. ii. The extent to which the work of others has been used is clearly stated in each chapter and certified by my supervisors. iii. The thesis contains as its main content, work that has not been previously submitted for a degree at any other university. i Abstract The complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) industry is worth over US$110 billion globally. Products are available to consumers with little medical advice; with many assuming that such products are ‘natural’ and therefore safe. However, with adulterated, contaminated and fraudulent products reported on overseas markets, consumers may be placing their health at risk. Previous studies into product content have reported undeclared plant materials, ingredient substitution, adulteration and contamination. However, no large-scale, independent audit of CAM has been undertaken to demonstrate these problems in Australia. This study aimed to investigate the content and quality of CAM products on the Australian market. 135 products were analysed using a combination of next-generation DNA sequencing and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Nearly 50% of products tested had contamination issues, in terms of DNA, chemical composition or both. 5% of the samples contained undeclared pharmaceuticals. -

(Simparica Trio™) for the Prevention of Experimental Angiostrongylus Vasorum Infection in Dogs Csilla Becskei1*, Mirjan Thys1, Padraig Doherty2 and Sean P
Becskei et al. Parasites Vectors (2020) 13:64 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-020-3948-z Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Efcacy of orally administered combination of moxidectin, sarolaner and pyrantel (Simparica Trio™) for the prevention of experimental Angiostrongylus vasorum infection in dogs Csilla Becskei1*, Mirjan Thys1, Padraig Doherty2 and Sean P. Mahabir3 Abstract Background: Infection with Angiostrongylus vasorum may cause severe clinical disease, even death in dogs, however, due to the often non-specifc clinical signs, diagnosis is not always straightforward. Regular prophylactic treatment may ofer a safe means to protect dogs against infection. The efcacy of a novel oral endectocide containing mox- idectin, sarolaner and pyrantel was investigated for the prevention of angiostrongylosis in dogs in three placebo- controlled, randomized, masked studies. The initial study (Study 1) determined the efcacious dosage of moxidectin in the combination product by evaluating three diferent dose levels, and two follow-up studies (Studies 2 and 3) confrmed the efcacy of the selected moxidectin dose. Methods: Animals were infected orally with 200 infective third-stage larvae (L3) of A. vasorum and were treated 28 days later with the combination product or with placebo. Timing of dosing relative to infection allowed for efcacy to be evaluated against the immature adult (L5) stage. Dogs in Study 1 received treatments with oral tablets to deliver 3, 12 or 24 µg/kg moxidectin in combination with 2 mg/kg sarolaner and 5.0 mg/kg pyrantel (as pamoate salt) or placebo. In Studies 2 and 3, Simparica Trio™ tablets were administered to provide minimum dosages of 1.2 mg/kg sarolaner, 24 µg/kg moxidectin and 5.0 mg/kg pyrantel (as pamoate salt). -
