To that end, we performed a literature search using the PubMed Database from 1966 up to October 31 2020, crossing the terms “amantadine” and “memantine” with “inflammation” and “anti-inflammatory”. Amantadine and/or memantine have shown anti-inflammatory effects in chronic hepatitis C, in neuroinflammation induced by sepsis and by lipopolysaccharides, experimental models of multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and respiratory diseases. Since the inflammatory response is one of the main pathogenetic mechanisms in the progression of the SARS-CoV-2 infection, anti-inflammatory effects of amantadine and memantine could be hypothetically useful in the treatment of this condition. This potential utility deserves further research. Keywords: amantadine; memantine; anti-inflammatory effects; SARS-Cov-2; COVID-19; therapy 1.

  • Characterization of Mice with Altered Dopamine Transporter and Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 Levels
    Characterization of Mice with Altered Dopamine Transporter and Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 Levels by Shababa Tanzeel Masoud A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Pharmacology and Toxicology University of Toronto © Copyright by Shababa Tanzeel Masoud 2017 Characterization of Mice with Altered Dopamine Transporter and Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 Levels Shababa Tanzeel Masoud Doctor of Philosophy Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology University of Toronto 2017 Abstract Dopamine is a key neurotransmitter that regulates motor coordination and dysfunction of the dopamine system gives rise to Parkinson’s disease. Nigrostriatal dopamine neurons are vulnerable to various genetic and environmental insults, suggesting that these cells are inherently at-risk. A cell-specific risk factor for these neurons is the neurotransmitter, dopamine itself. If intracellular dopamine is not appropriately sequestered into vesicles, it can accumulate in the cytosol. Cytosolic dopamine is highly reactive and can trigger oxidative stress, leading to cellular toxicity. Cytosolic dopamine levels are modulated by the plasma membrane dopamine transporter (DAT) that takes up dopamine from the extracellular space, and the vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) that stores dopamine into vesicles. In this thesis, we altered DAT and VMAT2 levels to investigate the detrimental consequences of potentially amplifying cytosolic dopamine in transgenic mice. Project 1 focused on selective over-expression of DAT in dopaminergic cells of transgenic mice (DAT-tg). DAT-tg mice displayed phenotypes of dopaminergic damage: increased dopamine-specific oxidative stress, L-DOPA-reversible fine motor deficits and enhanced sensitivity to toxicant insult, suggesting that increasing DAT- mediated dopamine uptake is detrimental for dopamine cells.

  • Positron Emission Tomography Studies of Potential Mechanisms Underlying Phencyclidine-Induced Alterations in Striatal Dopamine

In addition, we explored the hypotheses that GABAergic pathways as well as molecular targets beyond the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex (ie dopamine transporter proteins, DAT) contribute to PCP’s effects. In 11 the first series of experiments, C-raclopride was administered at baseline and 30 min following intravenous PCP administration. In the second series of studies, g-vinyl GABA (GVG) was used to assess whether enhanced GABAergic tone altered NMDA antagonist- induced changes in DA. Animals received an initial PET scan followed by pretreatment with GVG (300 mg/kg), then PCP 30 min prior to 11 a second scan. Finally, we explored the possible contributions of DAT blockade to PCP-induced increases in DA. By examining C- cocaine binding a paradigm in which PCP was coadministered with the radiotracer, we assessed the direct competition between these 11 two compounds for the DAT. At 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/kg, PCP decreased C-raclopride binding by 2.1, 14.9 7 2.2 and 8.18 7 1.1%, 11 respectively.
