  • Cell Surface Mobility of GABAB Receptors Saad Bin
    Cell surface mobility of GABAB receptors Saad Bin Hannan September 2011 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University College London Department of Neuroscience, Physiology, and Pharmacology University College London Gower Street London WC1E 6BT UK Declaration ii ‘I, Saad Hannan confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis.' ____________________ Saad Hannan September 2011 To Ammu, Abbu, Polu Abstract ivi Abstract Type-B γ-aminobutyric acid receptors (GABABRs) are important for mediating slow inhibition in the central nervous system and the kinetics of their internalisation and lateral mobility will be a major determinant of their signalling efficacy. Functional GABABRs require R1 and R2 subunit co-assembly, but how heterodimerisation affects the trafficking kinetics of GABABRs is unknown. Here, an α- bungarotoxin binding site (BBS) was inserted into the N-terminus of R2 to monitor receptor mobility in live cells. GABABRs are internalised via clathrin- and dynamin- dependent pathways and recruited to endosomes. By mutating the BBS, a new technique was developed to differentially track R1a and R2 simultaneously, revealing the subunits internalise as heteromers and that R2 dominantly-affects constitutive internalisation of GABABRs. Notably, the internalisation profile of R1aR2 heteromers, but not R1a homomers devoid of their ER retention motif (R1ASA), is similar to R2 homomers in heterologous systems. The internalisation of R1aASA was slowed to that of R2 by mutating a di-leucine motif in the R1 C-terminus, indicating a new role for heterodimerisation, whereby R2 subunits slow the internalization of surface GABABRs.

Clinical Review Esophageal, gastrointestinal, and colonic diseases resulting from disorders of the motor and sensory functions represent almost half the patients presenting to gastroenterologists. There have been significant advances in understanding the mechanisms of these disorders, through basic and translational research, and in targeting the receptors or mediators involved, through clinical trials involving biomarkers and patient responses. These advances have led to relief of patients’ symptoms and improved quality of life, although there are still significant unmet needs. This article reviews the pipeline of medications in development for esophageal sensorimotor disorders, gastroparesis, chronic diarrhea, chronic constipation (including opioid-induced constipation), and visceral pain.

  • Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Polymnia Galiatsatos, M.D., F.R.C.P.(C),1 and William D
    American Journal of Gastroenterology ISSN 0002-9270 C 2006 by Am. Coll. of Gastroenterology doi: 10.1111/j.1572-0241.2006.00375.x Published by Blackwell Publishing CME Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Polymnia Galiatsatos, M.D., F.R.C.P.(C),1 and William D.

Davis Jewish General Hospital, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, and 2Program in Cancer Genetics, Departments of Oncology and Human Genetics, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal-dominant colorectal cancer syndrome, caused by a germline mutation in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene, on chromosome 5q21. It is characterized by hundreds of adenomatous colorectal polyps, with an almost inevitable progression to colorectal cancer at an average age of 35 to 40 yr. Associated features include upper gastrointestinal tract polyps, congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium, desmoid tumors, and other extracolonic malignancies. Gardner syndrome is more of a historical subdivision of FAP, characterized by osteomas, dental anomalies, epidermal cysts, and soft tissue tumors. Other specified variants include Turcot syndrome (associated with central nervous system malignancies) and hereditary desmoid disease. Several genotype–phenotype correlations have been observed. Attenuated FAP is a phenotypically distinct entity, presenting with fewer than 100 adenomas. Multiple colorectal adenomas can also be caused by mutations in the human MutY homologue (MYH) gene, in an autosomal recessive condition referred to as MYH associated polyposis (MAP). Endoscopic screening of FAP probands and relatives is advocated as early as the ages of 10–12 yr, with the objective of reducing the occurrence of colorectal cancer.

  • Diagnosis and Treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome a Review
    Clinical Review & Education JAMA | Review Diagnosis and Treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome A Review Michael Camilleri, MD Multimedia IMPORTANCE The prevalence of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in the United States is CME Quiz at between 7% and 16%, most common in women and young people, with annual direct costs jamacmelookup.com estimated at more than $1 billion dollars in the United States. Traditionally, the diagnosis of IBS has been based on the positive identification of symptoms that correlate with several different syndromes associated with disorders such as IBS diarrhea, IBS constipation, functional diarrhea, functional constipation, chronic functional abdominal pain, or bloating. Several peripheral and central mechanisms initiate gastrointestinal motor and sensory dysfunctions leading to IBS symptoms. Those dysfunctions may require evaluation in patients whose symptoms do not respond to first-line treatments. OBSERVATIONS Validation studies of consensus symptom-based criteria have identified deficiencies that favor a simpler identification of the predominant symptoms of abdominal pain, bowel dysfunction, and bloating and exclusion of alarm symptoms such as unintentional weight loss, rectal bleeding, or recent change in bowel function. Symptom-based diagnosis of IBS is enhanced with additional history for symptoms of somatoform and psychological disorders and alarm symptoms, physical examination including digital rectal examination, and screening tests to exclude organic disease (by measuring hemoglobin and C-reactive protein concentrations). The initial treatment plan should include patient education, reassurance, and first-line treatments such as fiber and osmotic laxatives for constipation, opioids for diarrhea, antispasmodics for pain and for management of associated psychological disorders. For patients who do not respond to those IBS treatments, testing for specific functional disorders may be required in a minority of patients with IBS.

KELLY and B.J. ROWLANDS Depa,rtment of Surgery, Institute of Clinical Science, Royal Victoria Hospital, Grosvenor Road, Belfast. BT12 6BJ (Received 10 February 1994) Twenty patients received transduodenal sphincteroplasty and transampullary septectomy between 1987 and 1993. Seven patients had post-cholecystectomy pain which was much improved or abolished in 5 of 7 patients at a mean follow-up of 4 years and 5 months. Four of five patients with chronic pancreatitis were improved at 3 years and 2 months. Three of five patients with recurrent acute pancreatitis were improved at 4 years and 5 months. One of three patients with chronic abdominal pain of hepatobiliary origin was improved at 3 years. Transduodenal sphincteroplasty and transampullary septectomy can relieve pain in patients with post-cholecystectomy pain, recurrent acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, and chronic abdominal pain of hepatobiliary origin, presumably by improving drainage of the obstructed ducts.
