Accepted 20 March 2015 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a large family of receptor proteins that sense molecular Published signals on the exterior of a cell and activate signal transduction pathways within the cell. Modeling how an 24 April 2015 agonist activates such a receptor is fundamental for an understanding of a wide variety of physiological processes and it is of tremendous value for pharmacology and drug design. Inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy (IETS) has been proposed as a model for the mechanism by which olfactory GPCRs are activated by a bound agonist. We apply this hyothesis to GPCRs within the mammalian nervous system Correspondence and using quantum chemical modeling. We found that non-endogenous agonists of the serotonin receptor share requests for materials a particular IET spectral aspect both amongst each other and with the serotonin molecule: a peak whose should be addressed to intensity scales with the known agonist potencies. We propose an experiential validation of this model by S.K.

  • Molecular Mechanisms of Addiction
    Molecular Mechanisms of Addiction Eric J. Nestler Nash Family Professor The Friedman Brain Institute Medical Model of Addiction • Pathophysiology - To identify changes that drugs produce in a vulnerable brain to cause addiction. • Individual Risk - To identify specific genes and non-genetic factors that determine an individual’s risk for (or resistance to) addiction. - About 50% of the risk for addiction is genetic. Only through an improved understanding of the biology of addiction will it be possible to develop better treatments and eventually cures and preventive measures. Scope of Drug Addiction • 25% of the U.S. population has a diagnosis of drug abuse or addiction. • 50% of U.S. high school graduates have tried an illegal drug; use of alcohol and tobacco is more common. • >$400 billion incurred annually in the U.S. by addiction: - Loss of life and productivity - Medical consequences (e.g., AIDS, lung cancer, cirrhosis) - Crime and law enforcement Diverse Chemical Substances Cause Addiction • Opiates (morphine, heroin, oxycontin, vicodin) • Cocaine • Amphetamine and like drugs (methamphetamine, methylphenidate) • MDMA (ecstasy) • PCP (phencyclidine or angel dust; also ketamine) • Marijuana (cannabinoids) • Tobacco (nicotine) • Alcohol (ethanol) • Sedative/hypnotics (barbiturates, benzodiazepines) Chemical Structures of Some Drugs of Abuse Cocaine Morphine Ethanol Nicotine ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol Drugs of Abuse Use of % of US population as weekly users 100 25 50 75 0 Definition of Drug Addiction • Loss of control over drug use. • Compulsive drug seeking and drug taking despite horrendous adverse consequences. • Increased risk for relapse despite years of abstinence. Definition of Drug Addiction • Tolerance – reduced drug effect after repeated use. • Sensitization – increased drug effect after repeated use.

Read Full License Page 1/24 Abstract Background Lung cancer possesses high mortality rate and tolerances to multiple chemotherapeutics. Natural Borneol (NB) is a monoterpenoid compound that found to facilitate the bioavailability of drugs. In this study, we attempted to investigate effects of NB on the chemosensitivity in A549 cells and try to elucidate its therapeutic target. Methods The effects of NB on chemosensitivity in A549 cells was examined by MTT assay. The mechanism studies were evaluated by ow cytometry and western blotting assay. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and LC-MS combined analysis (MS-SPRi) was performed to elucidate the candidate target of NB contributes to this synergism. The chemosensitizing capacity of NB in vivo was conducted in nude mice bearing A549 tumors. Results NB pretreatment sensitizes A549 cells to low dosage of DOX, leading to a 15.7% to 41.5% increase in apoptosis, which is corelated with ERK and AKT inactivation but activation of phosphor-p38MAPK, -JNK and p53. Furthermore, this synergism depends on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. The MS- SPRi analysis reveals that the transient receptor potential melastatin-8 (TRPM8) is the interaction target of NB in potentiating DOX killing potency.

Furthermore, the influence of DSs on the cellular changes induced by the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) has not yet been investigated. Therefore, we examined the cytotoxicity of DSs and their ability to induce cell death and to influence on fluidity and lipid peroxidation (LPO) in the plasma membrane of immortalised B14 fibroblasts, used as a model neoplastic cells, susceptible to DOX-induced changes. The influence of DSs on DOX toxicity was also investigated and compared with that of a natural reference antioxidant α-Tocopherol.

There are growing evidences that the MDMA neurotoxic profile may be highly dependent on its hepatic metabolism. MDMA metabolism leads to the production ofhighly reactive derivates, namely catechols, cate- chol thioethers, and quinones. In this study the electrochemical oxidation-reduction processes of MDMA human metabolites, obtained by chemical synthesis, were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry based on an electrochem- ical cell with a glassy carbon working electrode. The toxicity of α-methyldopamine (α-MeDA), N-methyl-α- methyldopamine (N-Me-α-MeDA) and 5-(glutathion-S-yl)-α-methyldopamine [5-(GSH)-α-MeDA] to rat cortical neurons was then correlated with their redox potential. The obtained datademonstratedthatthe lower oxidation potential observed for the catecholic thioether of α-MeDA correlatedwith the higher toxicity of this adduct. This accounts for the use of voltammetry data in predicting the toxicity of MDMA metabolites. Key words —— 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine, Neurotoxicity, Cyclic voltammetry, Metabolites, Rat cortical neurons INTRODUCTION in laboratory animals and humans have been demonstrating that the exposure to MDMA may Theresearch in the area of drug abuse is mainly elicit long-term changes in the neurochemistry and focused in its direct or indirect effects on receptors behavior.
