Discovery of Novel Glucagon Receptor Antagonists Using Combined Pharmacophore Modeling and Docking
Glucagon and the glucagon receptor are most important molecules control over blood glucose concentrations. These two molecules are very important to studies of type 2 diabetic patients. In literature, several classes of small molecule antagonists of the human glucagon receptor have been reported. Glucagon receptor antagonist could decrease hepatic glucose output and improve glucose control in d...

متن کاملEffect of the cholinergic and opioid receptor mechanisms on nicotine-induced analgesia
In this study, we investigated the effect of nicotinic receptor agonists and antagonists on the analgesic response to morphine in the formalin test. In experiments conducted in mice, nicotine produced an early dose-dependent analgesic effect. At a dose of 0.5 mg/kg, mecamylamine, a nicotinic receptor inhibitor, suppressed the analgesic effect induced by 0.1 mg/kg nicotine in both stages of th...
متن کاملQSAR studies and application of genetic algorithm - multiple linear regressions in prediction of novel p2x7 receptor antagonists’ activity
Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models were employed for prediction the activity of P2X7 receptor antagonists. A data set consisted of 50 purine derivatives was utilized in the model construction where 40 and 10 of these compounds were in the training and test sets respectively. A suitable group of calculated molecular descriptors was selected by employing stepwise multiple ...
متن کاملCompetitive neuronal nicotinic receptor antagonists: a new direction for drug discovery.
Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are distributed extensively throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems. Currently, there is great interest in determining the structural and functional diversity of these receptors, and in developing subtype-selective agonists that have potential as therapeutic agents for neuropathology and disease. However, relatively little attention has b...
