    Nicotinic Receptors in Neurodegeneration

    Send Orders of Reprints at [email protected] 298 Current Neuropharmacology, 2013, 11, 298-314 Nicotinic Receptors in Neurodegeneration Inmaculada Posadas, Beatriz López-Hernández and Valentín Ceña* Unidad Asociada Neurodeath. CSIC-Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha, Departamento de Ciencias Médicas. Albacete, Spain and CIBERNED, Instituto de Salud Carlos III, Spain Abstract: Many studies have focused on expanding our knowledge of the structure and diversity of peripheral and central nicotinic receptors. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are members of the Cys-loop superfamily of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels, which include GABA (A and C), serotonin, and glycine receptors. Currently, 9 alpha (2-10) and 3 beta (2-4) subunits have been identified in the central nervous system (CNS), and these subunits assemble to form a variety of functional nAChRs. The pentameric combination of several alpha and beta subunits leads to a great number of nicotinic receptors that vary in their properties, including their sensitivity to nicotine, permeability to calcium and propensity to desensitize. In the CNS, nAChRs play crucial roles in modulating presynaptic, postsynaptic, and extrasynaptic signaling, and have been found to be involved in a complex range of CNS disorders including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), schizophrenia, Tourette´s syndrome, anxiety, depression and epilepsy. Therefore, there is growing interest in the development of drugs that modulate nAChR functions with optimal benefits and minimal adverse effects. The present review describes the main characteristics of nAChRs in the CNS and focuses on the various compounds that have been tested and are currently in phase I and phase II trials for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases including PD, AD and age-associated memory and mild cognitive impairment.

It is recommended that all suspect samples be confirmed by a quantitative method such as gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). ASSAY PRINCIPLE The Neogen forensic drug detection ELISA is a solid phase immunoassay designed to detect drugs of abuse for forensic application. The test is performed in microwells coated with a high affinity capture antibody. A control or sample is added to the wells followed by an enzyme conjugate. During the following incubation period, the enzyme conjugate competes with the drug in the sample for binding sites on the antibody coated well. After a wash step to remove any unbound material, substrate is added for the color development process. Acid stop solution is added to discontinue the enzyme-substrate reaction. The color intensity is inversely proportional to the amount of drug present in the sample. Therefore, those samples which contain the drug will inhibit binding of the enzyme conjugate to the capture antibody resulting in less color than the negative control.

    Current Topics in Behavioral Neurosciences Series Editors Mark A. Geyer, La Jolla, CA, USA Bart A. Ellenbroek, Wellington, New Zealand Charles A. Marsden, Nottingham, UK For further volumes: http://www.springer.com/series/7854 About this Series Current Topics in Behavioral Neurosciences provides critical and comprehensive discussions of the most significant areas of behavioral neuroscience research, written by leading international authorities. Each volume offers an informative and contemporary account of its subject, making it an unrivalled reference source. Titles in this series are available in both print and electronic formats. With the development of new methodologies for brain imaging, genetic and genomic analyses, molecular engineering of mutant animals, novel routes for drug delivery, and sophisticated cross-species behavioral assessments, it is now possible to study behavior relevant to psychiatric and neurological diseases and disorders on the physiological level. The Behavioral Neurosciences series focuses on ‘‘translational medicine’’ and cutting-edge technologies. Preclinical and clinical trials for the development of new diagostics and therapeutics as well as prevention efforts are covered whenever possible. Cameron S. Carter • Jeffrey W.
