Interaction Between N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Recepto'r Antagonists and Imipramine in Shock-Induced Depression Indian Journal of Experimental Biology Vol. 37, October 1999, pp. 952-958 Interaction between N-methyl-D-aspartate recepto'r antagonists and imipramine in shock-induced depression H K Chaturvedi*, Dinesh Chandra & J S Bapna** Department of Pharmacology, Maula!1a Azad Medical Co ll ege, New Delhi 110 002. India Received 24 Febrtw/), 1999; revised 15 July 1999 In the past few years, literature has accumulated describing manifestation of seizures following administration of certain antidepressants. Such reports are of particular importance because depress ion is a freq uent psychiatric prob lcm associatcd with epilepsy. Therefore, in the view of the fact t.hat NMDA receptor ant ago ni sts have been rcportcd to reduce behavioural deficits and have been shown to be antico nvu lsant. it was considered imperative to stud y thcir antidcpressant d lcct lI si ng shock-induced depression mod el in mi ce.

Herein, we summarize the biological function, structure, and small-molecule pharmaceutical ligands of the 5-HT2BR. Emerging evidence has suggested that the 5-HT2BR is implicated in the regulation of the cardiovascular system, fibrosis disorders, cancer, the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, and the nervous system. Eight crystal complex structures of the 5-HT2BR bound with different ligands provided great insights into ligand recognition, activation mechanism, and biased signaling. Numerous 5-HT2BR antagonists have been discovered and developed, and several of them have advanced to clinical trials. It is expected that the novel 5-HT2BR antagonists with high potency and selectivity will lead to the development of first-in-class drugs in various therapeutic areas.

The motor manifestations of Parkinson’s disease (PD) are secondary to a dopamine deficiency in the striatum. However, the degenerative process in PD is not limited to the dopaminergic system and also affects serotonergic and noradrenergic neurons. Because they can increase monoamine levels throughout the brain, monoamine reuptake inhibitors (MAUIs) represent potential therapeutic agents in PD. However, they are seldom used in clinical practice other than as antidepressants and wake-promoting agents. This review

ABSRACT Leishmanisis is wide range, worldwide, without drug, vaccine, secticide and has not sterile immunity and efforts in this field have not been successful.Leishmaniasis is a complex vector- borne disease caused by different species of Leishmania. It affects at least 12 million people worldwide. Leishmaniasis is commonly associated with poor economic conditions and immune compromised situations like HIV co infection. There is increasing in drug resistance to commonly used therapeutics as well as lack of vaccine program. This leads to a perpetual search for a new drug for leishmaniasis. This review fundamentally deals with some antidepressant drugs, and antifugal drugs showing the anti leishmanial activities. The antidepressant drugs are Imipramine, Sertraline, Ketanserin and Mianserin. Imipramine being a Tri Cyclic Antidepressant (TCA) drug kills Leishmania donovani elevating IL-12/IL-10 ratio. Sertraline belonging to the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) drugs, removes parasite loads from spleen and liver probably by declining cytoplasmic ATP consumption. Ketanserin is a serotonin receptor (5- HT2A/2C) antagonist that kills both amastigotes and promastigotes probably due to inhibition of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR). Mianserin belonging to the TCA group of drug, kills both promastigote and amastigote parasites also probably due to the inhibition of HMGR. The present review will give the summarized information about putting some old antidepressant drugs for the treatment of another disease like Leishmania.
