The aim of this study was to further characterize pharmacological properties of two phenylpiperazine derivatives: 1-{2-[2-(2,6-dimethlphenoxy)ethoxy]ethyl}-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazynine hydrochloride (HBK-14) and 2-[2-(2-chloro-6-methylphenoxy)ethoxy]ethyl-4-(2- methoxyphenyl)piperazynine dihydrochloride (HBK-15) in radioligand binding and functional in vitro assays as well as in vivo models....
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is characterized by stromal cell proliferation and contraction of the periurethral smooth muscle, causing lower urinary tract symptoms. Current BPH treatment, based on monotherapy with a1A-adrenoceptor antagonists, is helpful for many patients, but insufficient for others, and recent reports suggest that stimulation of a1D-adrenoceptors and 5-hydroxytryptamine...
Glycine release was facilitated by the activation of presynaptic ATP receptors (P(2X)-type) in a preparation of dissociated trigeminal nucleus pars caudalis neurons in which the native synaptic boutons were preserved. The action of ATP was completely blocked by substance P (SP) without alteration of the miniature IPSC (mIPSC) amplitude distribution. SP itself had no effect on mIPSC frequency or...
5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)(2A) receptors have been implicated to play a role in both the treatment and pathophysiology of a number of psychiatric disorders. Therefore, the coupling of this receptor to signals, such as extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), that elicit long-term neuronal changes may be relevant. In the present study we examined the coupling of the G(q)-coupled receptor to ...
OBJECTIVES Trazodone and nefazodone are phenylpiperazine antidepressants. Currently, there are no adequate, well-controlled studies on the fetal safety of these drugs. Our primary objective was to determine whether the use of trazodone or nefazodone during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk for major malformations. Secondary outcomes of interest included rates of spontaneous and the...
Pharmacological compounds enhancing serotonergic tone significantly decrease food intake and are among the most clinically efficacious treatments for obesity. However, the central mechanisms through which serotonergic compounds modulate feeding behavior have not been fully defined. The primary relay center receiving visceral gastrointestinal information in the central nervous system is the nucl...
Phosphorylation of glutamate receptors (GluRs) is emerging as an important regulatory mechanism. In this study 32P labeling of non-NMDA GluRs was investigated in cultured hippocampal neurons stimulated 2-15 min with agonists that selectively stimulate either Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II), Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C (PKC), or cAMP-dependent protein...
Brief activation of the ATP-sensitive P2X(7) receptor (P2X(7)R) stimulates the maturation and release of interleukin 1beta (IL-1beta)in macrophages, whereas prolonged agonist activation induces the formation of cytolytic pores in cell membranes. The present study investigated potential downstream mechanisms associated with native human P2X(7)R activation in lipopolysaccharide and interferon-gam...
Excitatory (glutamate) and inhibitory (GABA(A) and glycine) receptor/channels coexist in many neurons. To assess effects of ethanol on the interaction of glutamate and glycine receptors, glycine-induced current (I(Gly)) was recorded by a whole-cell patch-clamp technique from neurons freshly dissociated from the ventral tegmental area of rats. A conditioning prepulse of glutamate (1-3 s, 1 mM) s...
Activation of Group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in rat hippocampus induces a form of long-term depression (LTD) that is dependent on protein synthesis. However, the intracellular mechanisms leading to the initiation of protein synthesis and expression of LTD after mGluR activation are only partially understood. We investigated the role of several pathways linked to mGluR activat...
