Modulation by Trace Amine-Associated Receptor 1 of Experimental Parkinsonism, L-DOPA Responsivity, and Glutamatergic Neurotransmission
The Journal of Neuroscience, October 14, 2015 • 35(41):14057–14069 • 14057 Neurobiology of Disease Modulation by Trace Amine-Associated Receptor 1 of Experimental Parkinsonism, L-DOPA Responsivity, and Glutamatergic Neurotransmission Alexandra Alvarsson,1* Xiaoqun Zhang,1* Tiberiu L Stan,1 Nicoletta Schintu,1 Banafsheh Kadkhodaei,2 Mark J.

Restoration of dopamine transmission by L-DOPA relieves symptoms of PD but causes dyskinesia. Trace Amine-Associated Receptor 1 (TAAR1) modulates dopaminergic transmission, but its role in experimental Parkinsonism and L-DOPA responses has been neglected. Here, we report that TAAR1 knock-out (KO) mice show a reduced loss of dopaminergic markers in response to intrastriatal 6-OHDA administra- tion compared with wild-type (WT) littermates. In contrast, the TAAR1 agonist RO5166017 aggravated degeneration induced by intra- striatal6-OHDAinWTmice.Subchronic L-DOPAtreatmentofTAAR1KOmiceunilaterallylesionedwith6-OHDAinthemedialforebrain bundle resulted in more pronounced rotational behavior and dyskinesia than in their WT counterparts. The enhanced behavioral sensitization to L-DOPA in TAAR1 KO mice was paralleled by increased phosphorylation of striatal GluA1 subunits of AMPA receptors. Conversely, RO5166017 counteracted both L-DOPA-induced rotation and dyskinesia as well as AMPA receptor phosphorylation. -

Effect of Theophylline and Enprofylline on Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness
Thorax: first published as 10.1136/thx.44.12.1022 on 1 December 1989. Downloaded from Thorax 1989;44:1022-1026 Effect of theophylline and enprofylline on bronchial hyperresponsiveness G H KOETER, J KRAAN, M BOORSMA, J H G JONKMAN, TH W VAN DER MARK From the Department ofPulmonology and Lung Function, University Hospital, Groningen; Pharma Bio Research, Assen; and Astra Pharmaceutica, Rijswijk, The Netherlands ABSTRACT The effect of increasing intravenous doses of theophylline and enprofylline, a new xanthine derivative, on bronchial responsiveness to methacholine was studied in eight asthmatic patients. Methacholine provocations were carried out on three days before and after increasing doses of theophylline, enprofylline, and placebo, a double blind study design being used. Methacholine responsiveness was determined as the provocative concentration of methacholine causing a fall of 20% in FEV, (PC20). The patients were characterised pharmacokinetically before the main study to provide an individual dosage scheme for each patient that would provide rapid steady state plasma concentration plateaus of 5, 10, and 15 mg/l for theophylline and 1 25, 2 5, and 3-75 mg/l for enprofylline. Dose increments in the main study were given at 90 minute intervals. FEV, showed a small progressive decrease after placebo; it remained high in relation to placebo after both drugs and this effect was dose related. Methacholine PC20 values decreased after placebo; mean values were (maximum difference 2-0 and 1 7 higher after theophylline and enprofylline than after placebo copyright. doubling doses of methacholine); the effect of both drugs was dose related. Thus enprofylline and theophylline when given intravenously cause a small dose related increase in FEV1 and methacholine PC20 when compared with placebo. -
The Use of Illicit Drugs As Self-Medication in the Treatment of Cluster Headache: Results from an Italian Online Survey

International Headache Society 2015 The use of illicit drugs as self-medication Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav in the treatment of cluster headache: DOI: 10.1177/0333102415583145 Results from an Italian online survey cep.sagepub.com C Di Lorenzo1, G Coppola2, G Di Lorenzo3, M Bracaglia4, P Rossi5 and F Pierelli4,6 Abstract Background: Cluster headache (CH) patients often receive unsatisfactory treatment and may explore illicit substances as alternatives. We aimed to explore this use of illicit drugs for CH treatment. Methods: We invited CH patients from an Internet-based self-help group to complete a questionnaire regarding their therapeutic use of illicit substances. Results: Of the 54 respondents, 29 were classified as chronic and 39 were drug-resistant cases. Fifty patients had previously tried subcutaneous sumatriptan, 40 had tried O2, and 48 had tried at least one prophylactic treatment. All 54 patients specified that they were dissatisfied with conventional treatments. Thirty-four patients had used cannabin- oids, 13 cocaine, 8 heroin, 18 psilocybin, 12 lysergic acid amide (LSA), and 4 lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). Discussion: Some patients with intractable CH decided to try illicit drugs concomitantly with cessation of medical care. Most of these patients found suggestions for illicit drug use on the Internet. Many patients seemed to underestimate the judicial consequences of, and had an overestimated confidence in the safety of, such illicit treatments.
