We previously demonstrated that 24-h treatment with ( )-1(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane HCl (DOI) causes phosphorylation of G 11 protein at serine 154 and that this phosphorylation causes desensitization of serotonin (5-HT) 2A receptor signaling in A1A1v cells (Shi et al., 2007). We now report that treatment of A1A1v cells with DOI for 24 h produces a greater reduction in the Bmax ...
The mechanisms underlying the acute neurophysiological and behavioral effects of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) remain to be elucidated. However, the function of neuronal ion channels is perturbed by VOCs. The present study examined effects of toluene (TOL), trichloroethylene (TCE), and perchloroethylene (PERC) on whole-cell calcium current (ICa) in nerve growth factor-differentiated pheochr...
GABAA receptor (R) positive allosteric modulators that selectively modulate GABAARs containing 2and/or 3over 1subunits have been reported across diverse chemotypes. Examples include loreclezole, mefenamic acid, tracazolate, and etifoxine. In general,“ 2/3-selective” GABAAR positive allosteric modulators are nonbenzodiazepines (nonBZs), do not show -subunit isoform selectivity, yet have anxiolyt...
a2C adrenoceptors occur in high density in the striatum, but the functional role of these receptors is uncertain. Mice with targeted inactivation of the a2C adrenoceptor gene (Adra2c ) and genetically related control mice expressing the wild-type a2C adrenoceptor (Adra2c ) were used to determine whether striatal a2C adrenoceptors modulate adenylyl cyclase activation. In striatal slices from Adr...
Because chronic exposure to nicotine and nicotinic drugs might both activate and desensitize nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs), we sought to determine whether prolonged exposure to nicotine concentrations encountered in tobacco users differentially affects electrophysiological properties of major subtypes of human neuronal nicotinic AChRs. Xenopus laevis oocytes were injected with subun...
Antiproliferative action of different pentacyclic triterpenes has repeatedly been reported, and some lipoxygenase inhibitors have been shown to induce cell death in various cell systems. Acetyl-11-keto-b-boswellic acid (AKBA) is a pentacyclic triterpene that inhibits 5-lipoxygenase in a selective, enzymedirected, nonredox, and noncompetitive manner. To investigate a possible effect of AKBA on l...
It is known that moxonidine acts as an agonist at presynaptic 2-adrenoceptors of the postganglionic sympathetic nerve terminals and leads to a reduction in noradrenaline release. In addition, it is conceivable that I1-binding sites located in other regions of the preand postganglionic sympathetic neurons are involved in this effect. Our aim was to investigate whether and to what extent activati...
The 5-hydroxytryptamine1B/1D (5-HT1B/1D) antagonist 29-methyl49-(5-methyl-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl)-biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid [4-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-phenyl]-amide (GR 127935) and 5-HT1A antagonist N-(2-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1piperazinyl)ethyl)-N-(2-pyridinyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide (WAY 100635) were used to assess whether hyperactivity induced by 3 mg/kg (1)-3,4-methylenedioxymetham...
Antagonistic properties of buprenorphine for and -opioid receptors were characterized in -endorphinand [D-Ala,NMe-Phe,Gly-ol]-enkephalin (DAMGO)-induced antinociception, respectively, with the tail-flick test in male ICR mice. -Opioid receptor agonist -endorphin (0.1–1 g), -opioid receptor agonist DAMGO (0.5–20 ng), or buprenorphine (0.1–20 g) administered i.c.v. dose dependently produced antin...
The present study was designed to investigate the effects of Pb on modulation of synaptic transmission by nicotinic receptors (nAChRs) in the rat hippocampus. To this end, inhibitory and excitatory postsynaptic currents (IPSCs and EPSCs, respectively) were recorded by means of the whole-cell mode of the patch-clamp technique from rat hippocampal neurons in culture. Acetylcholine (ACh, 1 mM; 1-s...
