Current Topics in Behavioral Neurosciences
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.

GPCR/G Protein
Inhibitors, Agonists, Screening Libraries www.MedChemExpress.com GPCR/G Protein G Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) perceive many extracellular signals and transduce them to heterotrimeric G proteins, which further transduce these signals intracellular to appropriate downstream effectors and thereby play an important role in various signaling pathways. G proteins are specialized proteins with the ability to bind the nucleotides guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and guanosine diphosphate (GDP). In unstimulated cells, the state of G alpha is defined by its interaction with GDP, G beta-gamma, and a GPCR. Upon receptor stimulation by a ligand, G alpha dissociates from the receptor and G beta-gamma, and GTP is exchanged for the bound GDP, which leads to G alpha activation. G alpha then goes on to activate other molecules in the cell. These effects include activating the MAPK and PI3K pathways, as well as inhibition of the Na+/H+ exchanger in the plasma membrane, and the lowering of intracellular Ca2+ levels. Most human GPCRs can be grouped into five main families named; Glutamate, Rhodopsin, Adhesion, Frizzled/Taste2, and Secretin, forming the GRAFS classification system. A series of studies showed that aberrant GPCR Signaling including those for GPCR-PCa, PSGR2, CaSR, GPR30, and GPR39 are associated with tumorigenesis or metastasis, thus interfering with these receptors and their downstream targets might provide an opportunity for the development of new strategies for cancer diagnosis, prevention and treatment. At present, modulators of GPCRs form a key area for the pharmaceutical industry, representing approximately 27% of all FDA-approved drugs. References: [1] Moreira IS.

Integrating a Stepped Care Model of Screening and Treatment for Depression Into Malawi's National HIV Care Delivery Platform
1 Integrating a Stepped Care Model of Screening and Treatment for Depression into Malawi's National HIV Care Delivery Platform 23 February, 2021 - v1 (ID: R01MH117760) 2 Stepped Care for Depression at Integrated Chronic Care Centers (IC3D) in Malawi: Study Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial INTRODUCTION In low- and middle-income countries (LAMICs), mental disorders like major depression often account for a larger burden of disease than HIV and malaria combined;1 yet, three- quarters of affected individuals receive no treatment.2 The funding landscape accounts for much of this discrepancy: In 2017, international funding for HIV was $US9.5 billion, compared to $US130M for mental disorders—roughly a 70-fold difference.3 The economic impact of this under-investment, in terms of lost human capital, is expected to reach $30 trillion worldwide over a 20-year period.4 Malawi represents a paradigm case: despite being the second poorest country in the world5 and having one of the ten highest HIV incidences,6 international efforts have successfully built a system of care to address the HIV epidemic. Nevertheless, over 90% of those requiring treatment for depression have yet to receive care,7 even though depression is one of the leading causes of disability in Malawi.8 One recent study estimated the point prevalence of depression in Malawi at 19%.9 Underlying the paucity of depression care is a perception that, relative to treatments for infectious disease, treatments for mental disorders are more time-intensive and less cost- effective.10 However, research to-date has two major shortcomings: First, evaluations often study the cost of stand-alone programs, rather than leveraging existing infrastructure to integrate care, which would reduce costs.11 The HIV care platform in Malawi, comprising a network of 708 facilities, represents one such example. -

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 -
Methamphetamine-Induced Degeneration of Dopaminergic Neurons Involves Autophagy and Upregulation of Dopamine Synthesis

Here, we established a rat 20 model of enhanced female aggression using a combination of social isolation and aggression- 21 training to specifically investigate the involvement of the oxytocin (OXT) and vasopressin 22 (AVP) systems within the lateral septum (LS). Using neuropharmacological, optogenetic, 23 chemogenetic as well as microdialyses approaches, we revealed that enhanced OXT release 24 within the ventral LS (vLS), combined with reduced AVP release within the dorsal LS (dLS), 25 are required for female aggression.
