Investigation of D2 Receptor–Agonist Interactions Using a Combination of Pharmacophore and Receptor Homology Modeling
A combined modeling approach was used to identify structural factors that underlie the structure-activity relationships (SARs) of full dopamine D₂ receptor agonists and structurally similar inactive compounds. A 3D structural model of the dopamine D₂ receptor was constructed, with the agonist (-)-(R)-2-OH-NPA present in the binding site during the modeling procedure. The 3D model was evaluated ...
متن کاملInvestigation of D1 Receptor–Agonist Interactions and D1/D2 Agonist Selectivity Using a Combination of Pharmacophore and Receptor Homology Modeling
The aim of this study was to use a combined structure and pharmacophore modeling approach to extract information regarding dopamine D₁ receptor agonism and D₁/D₂ agonist selectivity. A 3D structure model of the D₁ receptor in its agonist-bound state was constructed with a full D₁ agonist present in the binding site. Two different binding modes were identified using (+)-doxanthrine or SKF89626 i...
متن کاملPrediction of the Human EP1 Receptor Binding Site by Homology Modeling and Molecular Dynamics Simulation
The prostanoid receptor EP1 is a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) known to be involved in a variety of pathological disorders such as pain, fever and inflammation. These receptors are important drug targets, but design of subtype specific agonists and antagonists has been partially hampered by the absence of three-dimensional structures for these receptors. To understand the molecular interact...
متن کاملIonotropic 5-HT3 receptor agonist-induced motor responses in the hindlimbs of paraplegic mice.
Centrally expressed 5-HT3 receptors (5-HTR3) are well known for their role in wakefulness, cognition, and nociception. However, clear evidence of their participation in motor control is still lacking despite specific 5-HTR3 expression in hindlimb motor areas of the spinal cord (i.e., lumbar laminae VII-IX). Here, we studied the acute effects of 4-amino-(6-chloro-2-pyridyl)-1-piperidine hydrochl...
متن کاملMenthol inhibits 5-HT3 receptor-mediated currents.
The effects of alcohol monoterpene menthol, a major active ingredient of the peppermint plant, were tested on the function of human 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 (5-HT3) receptors expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. 5-HT (1 μM)-evoked currents recorded by two-electrode voltage-clamp technique were reversibly inhibited by menthol in a concentration-dependent (IC50 = 163 μM) manner. The effects of ...
