Cell and small animal models for phenotypic drug discovery
The phenotype-based drug discovery (PDD) approach is re-emerging as an alternative platform for drug discovery. This review provides an overview of the various model systems and technical advances in imaging and image analyses that strengthen the PDD platform. In PDD screens, compounds of therapeutic value are identified based on the phenotypic perturbations produced irrespective of target(s) o...
متن کاملExperimental Models of Anxiety for Drug Discovery and Brain Research.
Animal models have been vital to recent advances in experimental neuroscience, including the modeling of common human brain disorders such as anxiety, depression, and schizophrenia. As mice express robust anxiety-like behaviors when exposed to stressors (e.g., novelty, bright light, or social confrontation), these phenotypes have clear utility in testing the effects of psychotropic drugs. Of sp...

This manuscript is a review of a number of ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology texts and papers in order to arrive at current understanding and scope of ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology. It includes either a brief definition of both fields and presenting some examples on them. Also it has a glimpse on the geographical coverage of research works throughout the world, important issue of prope...
متن کاملDrug Discovery Research for Hydrocephalus
In 2013, clinical and basic science research has rolled the dice further to extend our understanding to hydrocephalus. A group of research team at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, led by neurosurgeon, Joseph Madsen, has published the laboratory investigation results on vascular endothelial growth factor, VEGF, and showed its potential effect on the development of experimen...
متن کاملCommon animal models for spasticity and pain.
Animal models of spasticity and pain have allowed for the elucidation of possible mechanisms and the evaluation of potential therapeutic interventions for these serious clinical problems. Each model mirrors the clinical appearance of many features of the syndrome, but few reproduce the myriad patient reports of either intensity or relevant contributing factors, especially in models of chronic n...
