  • 615 Neuroscience-Cayman-Bertin
    Thomas G. Brock, Ph.D. Introduction to Neuroscience In our first Biology classes, we learned that lipids form the membranes around cells. For many students, interests quickly moved to the intracellular constituents ‘that really matter’, or to how cells or systems work in health and disease. If there was further thought about lipids, it might have been limited to more personal issues, like an expanding waistline. It was easy to forget about lipids in the complexities of, say, Alzheimer’s Disease, where tau protein is hyperphosphorylated by a host of kinases before forming neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid precursor protein is processed by assorted secretases, ultimately aggregating to form neurodegenerating plaques. What possible role could lipids have in all this? After all, lipids just form the membranes around cells. Fortunately, neuroscientists study complex systems. Whether working at the molecular, cellular, or organismal level, the research focus always returns to the intricately interconnected bigger picture. Perhaps surprisingly, lipids keep emerging as part of the bigger picture. At least, the smaller lipids do. Many of the smaller lipids, including the cannabinoids and eicosanoids, act as paracrine hormones, modulating cell functions in a receptor-mediated fashion. In this sense, they are rather like the peptide hormones in their diversity and actions. In the neurosystem, this means that these signaling lipids determine if synapses fire or not, when cells differentiate or die, and whether tissues remain healthy or become inflamed. Returning to the question posed above about lipids in Alzheimer’s, these mediators have roles at many levels in the course of the disease, as presented in an article on page 42 of this catalog.

Prisinzano Date approved: July 18, 2012 ii ABSTRACT Kappa opioid (KOP) receptors have been suggested as an alternative target to the mu opioid (MOP) receptor for the treatment of pain because KOP activation is associated with fewer negative side-effects (respiratory depression, constipation, tolerance, and dependence). The KOP receptor has also been implicated in several abuse-related effects in the central nervous system (CNS). KOP ligands have been investigated as pharmacotherapies for drug abuse; KOP agonists have been shown to modulate dopamine concentrations in the CNS as well as attenuate the self-administration of cocaine in a variety of species, and KOP antagonists have potential in the treatment of relapse. One drawback of current opioid ligand investigation is that many compounds are based on the morphine scaffold and thus have similar properties, both positive and negative, to the parent molecule. Thus there is increasing need to discover new chemical scaffolds with opioid receptor activity.

  • Ilamycin C Induces Apoptosis and Inhibits Migration and Invasion In
    Xie et al. Journal of Hematology & Oncology (2019) 12:60 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13045-019-0744-3 RESEARCH Open Access Ilamycin C induces apoptosis and inhibits migration and invasion in triple-negative breast cancer by suppressing IL-6/STAT3 pathway Qing Xie1†, Zhijie Yang2†, Xuanmei Huang1, Zikang Zhang1, Jiangbin Li1, Jianhua Ju2*, Hua Zhang1* and Junying Ma2* Abstract Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer with poor prognosis, and its treatment remains a challenge due to few targeted medicines and high risk of relapse, metastasis, and drug resistance. Thus, more effective drugs and new regimens for the therapy of TNBC are urgently needed. Ilamycins are a kind of cyclic peptides and produced by Streptomyces atratus and Streptomyces islandicus with effective anti-tuberculosis activity. Ilamycin C is a novel compound isolated from the deep South China Sea- derived Streptomyces atratus SCSIO ZH16 and exhibited a strong cytotoxic activity against several cancers including breast cancer cell line MCF7. However, the cytotoxic activity of Ilamycin C to TNBC cells and a detailed antitumor mechanism have not been reported. Methods: CCK-8 assays were used to examine cell viability and cytotoxic activity of Ilamycin C to TNBC, non-TNBC MCF7, and nonmalignant MCF10A cells. EdU assays and flow cytometry were performed to assess cell proliferation and cell apoptosis. Transwell migration and Matrigel invasion assays were utilized to assess the migratory and invading capacity of TNBC cells following the treatment of Ilamycin C. The expressions of proteins were detected by western blot. Results: In this study, we found that Ilamycin C has more preferential cytotoxicity in TNBC cells than non-TNBC MCF7 and nonmalignant MCF10A cells.

  • Cannabinoids and Endocannabinoid System Changes in Intestinal Inflammation and Colorectal Cancer
    cancers Review Cannabinoids and Endocannabinoid System Changes in Intestinal Inflammation and Colorectal Cancer Viktoriia Cherkasova, Olga Kovalchuk * and Igor Kovalchuk * Department of Biological Sciences, University of Lethbridge, Lethbridge, AB T1K 7X8, Canada; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (O.K.); [email protected] (I.K.) Simple Summary: In recent years, multiple preclinical studies have shown that changes in endo- cannabinoid system signaling may have various effects on intestinal inflammation and colorectal cancer. However, not all tumors can respond to cannabinoid therapy in the same manner. Given that colorectal cancer is a heterogeneous disease with different genomic landscapes, experiments with cannabinoids should involve different molecular subtypes, emerging mutations, and various stages of the disease. We hope that this review can help researchers form a comprehensive understanding of cannabinoid interactions in colorectal cancer and intestinal bowel diseases. We believe that selecting a particular experimental model based on the disease’s genetic landscape is a crucial step in the drug discovery, which eventually may tremendously benefit patient’s treatment outcomes and bring us one step closer to individualized medicine. Abstract: Despite the multiple preventive measures and treatment options, colorectal cancer holds a significant place in the world’s disease and mortality rates. The development of novel therapy is in Citation: Cherkasova, V.; Kovalchuk, critical need, and based on recent experimental data, cannabinoids could become excellent candidates. O.; Kovalchuk, I.

Since the mature Biomarkers pentapeptides are unstable, we evaluated the performance of an assay that measures proenkephalin 119–159 Proenkephalin (PENK), a stable peptide formed concomitantly with mature enkephalins. Enkephalin Methods: PENK assay performance was evaluated on two microtiterplate/chemiluminescence sandwich im- Pro-enkephalin munoassay formats that required 18 or 1 h incubation times. PENK concentration was measured in plasma from penKid healthy individuals to establish a reference interval and in patients with varied levels of kidney function and Assay validation comorbidities to assess the association with measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) using iothalamate clearance. Results: Assay performance characteristics in plasma were similar between the assay formats. Limit of quanti- tation was 26.0 pmol/L (CV = 20%) for the 1 h assay and 17.3 pmol/L (CV = 3%) for the 18 h assay. Measurable ranges were 26–1540 pmol/L (1 h assay) and 18–2300 pmol/L (18 h assay). PENK concentrations are stable in plasma stored ambient to 10 days, refrigerated to at least 15 days, and frozen to at least 90 days.

    CENTER FOR DRUG EVALUATION AND RESEARCH APPLICATION NUMBER: 204569Orig1s000 MEDICAL REVIEW(S) Cross Discipline Team Leader Review 3. CMC/Device Dr. Khairuzzaman found the drug product portion of the NDA to be acceptable, and without need for phase 4 commitments. Dr. Sapru’s review stated that with the exception of a pending issue concerning the control of potential genotoxic impurity (b) (4) the NDA was approvable in terms of drug substance. Dr. Suarez found that the NDA was acceptable from a biopharmaceutics perspective. The Office of Compliance issuance of an acceptable recommendation for drug substance manufacturing and testing facilities was pending at the time of this review. 4. Nonclinical Pharmacology/Toxicology Dr. Richard Siarey completed the primary nonclinical review, and Dr. Lois Freed completed a supervisory memo. Dr. Siarey’s overall conclusion was that from a nonclinical perspective, approval of the suvorexant NDA was recommended. However, he found evidence that catapelxy was observed in dogs exposed to MK-4305 (suvorexant) near Tmax, although he concluded that additional information could have been gained by studying the drug in an experimental model that has been used for diagnosing cataplexy in dogs. Dr. Siarey suggested that since cataplexy occurred in dogs near Tmax, a time at which if used for insomnia patients would ordinarily be in bed, safety concern for humans was reduced. Dr. Siarey also found that the neurobehavioral assessment in the pre- and post-natal developmental study was not complete, as the passive avoidance tests was performed too early in development, while learning/acquisition tests and retention/memory tests were not conducted.
