DM235 (sunifiram): a novel nootropic with potential as a cognitive enhancer

EidisineTM as a Cognitive Enhancer

Nicotine as a cognitive enhancer.

1. Nicotine improves attention in a wide variety of tasks in healthy volunteers. 2. Nicotine improves immediate and longer term memory in healthy volunteers. 3. Nicotine improves attention in patients with probable Alzheimer's Disease. 4. While some of the memory effects of nicotine may be due to enhanced attention, others seem to be the result of improved consolidation as shown by post-trial d...

A preclinical assessment of d.l-govadine as a potential antipsychotic and cognitive enhancer.

Tetrahydroprotoberberines (THPBs) are compounds derived from traditional Chinese medicine and increasing preclinical evidence suggests efficacy in treatment of a wide range of symptoms observed in schizophrenia. A receptor-binding profile of the THPB, d.l-govadine (d.l-Gov), reveals high affinity for dopamine and noradrenaline receptors, efficacy as a D2 receptor antagonist, brain penetrance in...

A novel chimeric recombinant protein PDHB-P80 of Mycoplasma agalactiae as a potential diagnostic tool

The aim of this study was to construct, expression of a novel recombinant chimeric protein consisting of Pyruvate dehydrogenase beta subunit (PDHB) and high antigenic region of integral membrane lipoprotein P80 of Mycoplasma agalactiae as a potential diagnostic tool. The full-length sequence of pdhb and a portion of antigenic regions of P80 were selected and analyzed by CLC ma...

Serum Uric Acid as a Potential Concomitant with Carotid Atherosclerosis

Background: Common carotid intima-media thickness (CC-IMT) measured by ultrasonography as a non-invasive method is nowadays known as a marker for early atherosclerosis. Objectives: Survey the relationship between serum uric acid and carotid intima-media thickness considering hypertension. Materials and Methods: This study was designed as a comparative cross-sectional study in northern Ira...
