The decline in both antioxidants and aging per se are associated with an increased risk of cognitive impairment, chronic brain damage, the outcome of which can manifest as neurodegeneration. Based on recent reports, neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 100 million people worldwide and cause significant economical and personal stress, and require long-term cost effective care. The main motives and the key driving force in the field of neurodegenerative research, are the desire for solutions to the ravages of CNS diseases especially, Alzheimers, Parkinsons (respectively AD and PD), and others. An important topic to address is the use of neuropharmacological-driven approaches that could attenuate neuroinflammatory processes in the diseased brain, and improve the outcome. In this special issue of Current Neuropharmacology, contributors discuss a variety of experimental and clinical approaches including the development and delivery of novel central nervous system agents, gene therapies, and ...

PMID: 28495375 Komlodi Timea, Tretter Laszlo (2017) Neuropharmacology Abstract: Methylene blue (MB), a potential neuroprotective agent, is efficient in various neurodegenerative disease models. Beneficial effects of MB have been attributed to improvements in mitochondrial functions. Substrate-level phosphorylation (SLP) results in the production of ATP independent from the ATP synthase (ATP-ase). In energetically compromised mitochondria, ATP produced by SLP can prevent the reversal of the adenine nucleotide translocase and thus the hydrolysis of glycolytic ATP. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of MB on mitochondrial SLP catalysed by succinyl-CoA ligase. Measurements were carried out on isolated guinea pig cortical mitochondria respiring on α-ketoglutarate, glutamate, malate or succinate. The mitochondrial functions and parameters like ATP synthesis, oxygen consumption, membrane potential, and NAD(P)H level were followed online, in parallel with the redox state of MB. ...

CiteSeerX - Document Details (Isaac Councill, Lee Giles, Pradeep Teregowda): Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterized by obsessions (intrusive thoughts) and compulsions (repetitive ritualistic behaviours) leading to functional impairment. Accumulating evidence links these conditions with underlying dysregulation of fronto-striatal circuitry and monoamine systems. These abnormalities represent key targets for existing and novel treatment interventions. However, the brain bases of these conditions and treatment mechanisms are still not fully elucidated. Animal models simulating the behavioural and clinical manifestations of the disorder show great potential for augmenting our understanding of the pathophysiology and treatment of OCD. This paper provides an overview of what is known about OCD from several perspectives. We begin by describing the clinical features of OCD and the criteria used to assess the validity of animal models of symptomatology; namely, face validity (phenomenological

Signal transduction refers to the processes by which intercellular signals such as neurotransmitters, neurotrophic factors, circulating hormones, and cytokines produce intracellular biochemical alterations that in turn modify neuronal functioning including the regulation of gene expression. Intercellular signals and their receptors, generally located in the neuronal plasma membrane, represent only a small amount of all information processing in the brain. An understanding of the complex biochemical mechanisms that operate inside ...

The brain controls bodily function and behavior through the motor system, the autonomic nervous system (Chapter 9), and hormones released by neuroendocrine neurons. Hormones are signaling molecules that reach their target cells by means of the bloodstream. They comprise three major classes: peptides, neurotransmitter-like small molecules such as epinephrine (adrenalin), and steroid-like molecules. Through its neuroendocrine system, the brain contributes to body homeostasis, regulates growth and maturation, and facilitates the bodys response to environmental stressors, illness, and injury. ...

Adapted from the Preface of the Psychopharmacology: the Fourth Generation of Progress, published in 1995.. This volume, Psychopharmacology: The Fourth Generation of Progress, seeks to redefine the scientific field of neuropsychopharmacology for its parent organization, The American College of Neuropsychopharmacology. The fields definition has been constructed from the two interrelated bodies of work that comprise the major working arms of the College: the clinical investigation of psychiatry and neurological disorders in terms of their biologically defined mechanisms of pathogenesis, treatment and prevention; and the preclinical foundations of neuropsychopharmacology in terms of the essential signaling mechanisms by which neurons interact to perform the behavioral level operations of the brain and mental activity. In these parallel tracks of effort, drugs are a tool to dissect the chemical signaling systems of the brain, as well as a means to restore functions disrupted by brain diseases. The ...

(±)-Modafinil (MOD) is used clinically for the treatment of sleep disorders and has been investigated as a potential medication for the treatment of psychostimulant addiction. However, the therapeutic efficacy of (±)-MOD for addiction is inconclusive. Herein we used animal models of self-administration and in vivo microdialysis to study the pharmacological actions of R-modafinil (R-MOD) and S-modafinil (S-MOD) on nicotine-taking and nicotine-seeking behavior, and mechanisms underlying such actions. We found that R-MOD is more potent and effective than S-MOD in attenuating nicotine self-administration in Long-Evans rats. As Long-Evans rats did not show a robust reinstatement response to nicotine, we used alcohol-preferring rats (P-rats) that display much higher reinstatement responses to nicotine than Long-Evans rats. We found that R-MOD significantly inhibited intravenous nicotine self-administration, nicotine-induced reinstatement, and nicotine-associated cue-induced drug-seeking behavior in P-rats.

Prevention is the most promising way to reduce the high personal, familial, societal, clinical and economic costs of mental disorders in Europe and worldwide. A complementary approach is to go beyond the prevention of mental ill health, to promote good mental health. This manuscript highlights the first European consortium fostering cutting-edge multidisciplinary research in these two areas. The ECNP-funded Network on the Prevention of Mental Disorders and Mental Health Promotion (ECNP PMD-MHP) brings together European sites of excellence with different expertise for translational research collaboration, including partnerships with the industry. The ECNP PMD-MHP Network adopts a transdiagnostic, lifespan, clinical staging model which cuts across different mental disorders and different methodologies. The main aims of the ECNP PMD-MHP Network are to facilitate multidisciplinary collaboration, enhance knowledge and data sharing, standardise core assessment and outcome measures, promote clinical research,

The cortisol awakening response (CAR), defined as the increase in cortisol release in response to waking up, shows associations with social and environmental risk factors of schizophrenia and has been studied as a potential biomarker in schizophrenia. We report a systematic review and meta-analysis of 11 studies and 879 participants focusing on the CAR of patients with schizophrenia, first-episode psychosis, and at-risk mental states. Random-effects meta-analysis showed that CAR is attenuated in patients with psychosis compared to healthy controls (g = −0.426, 95% CI −0.585 to −0.267, p , 0.001, 11 between-group comparisons, n = 879). Subgroup analysis showed flattened CAR in patients with schizophrenia (g = −0.556, 95% CI −1.069 to −0.044, p , 0.05, 2 between-group comparisons, n = 114) and first-episode psychosis (g = −0.544, 95% CI −0.731 to −0.358, p , 0.001, 6 between-group comparisons, n = 505), but not in individuals with at-risk mental states.

Women who have experienced adverse childhood events (ACEs) around puberty are at the greatest risk for neuropsychiatric disorders across the lifespan. This population is exceptionally vulnerable to neuropsychiatric disease presentation during the hormonally dynamic state of pregnancy. We previously established that chronic adversity around puberty in female mice significantly altered their HPA axis function specifically during pregnancy, modeling the effects of pubertal ACEs we also reported in women. We hypothesized that the pregnancy hormone, allopregnanolone, was involved in presentation of the blunted stress response phenotype by its interaction with the molecular programming that had occurred during pubertal adversity experience. Here, in adult mice previously stressed during puberty, allopregnanolone administration was sufficient to reproduce the decreased corticosterone response after acute stress. Examination of neuronal activation and the electrophysiological properties of CRF neurons in the

Over the past two decades few disorders have been subject to such big changes in management as schizophrenia. Yet these have gone unnoticed by the general medical and popular press-possibly because these changes have not arisen from breakthroughs in research on genetics, receptors, anatomy, or neuropharmacology.. The new generation of antipsychotic drugs has not fulfilled its promise of substantially increased effectiveness or even of much better tolerability.1 In this weeks BMJ Tiihonen and colleagues show that, in practice, some older drugs such as perphenazine are as efficacious as the newer ones.2 This follows the findings of the National Institute of Mental Health clinical antipsychotic trials of intervention effectiveness (CATIE) study that 74% of patients with established symptoms of schizophrenia discontinued their medication within 18 months and there was no overall difference in effect between perphenazine and the newer atypical drugs.1 3 When patients can accept and tolerate ...

The mGlu5 receptor is the only metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype expressed by mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells grown under non-differentiating conditions [Cappuccio, L, Spinanti, P. Porcellini, A., Desiderati, F., De Vita, T., Storto, M., Capobianco, L., Battaglia, G., Nicoletti, F., Melchiorri, D., 2005. Endogenous activation of mGlu5 metabotropic glutamate receptors supports self-renewal of cultured mouse embryonic stem cells. Neuropharmacology 1, 196-205]. We now report that ES cells differentiating into embryoid bodies (EBs) progressively lose mGlu5 receptors and begin to express mGlu4 receptors at both mRNA and proteinc level. A 4-day treatment of EBs with the mGlu4 receptor agonist, L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutanoate (L-AP4), increased mRNA levels of the mesoderm marker, brachyury and the endoderm marker, H19, and decreased the expression of the transcript for the primitive ectoderm marker, fibroblast-growth factor-5 (FGF-5). These effects were prevented by the mGlu4 receptor antagonists, ...

Will earned a B.Sc. in Psychology from the University of Washington in 2008 and a Ph.D. in Behavioral Neuroscience from Oregon Health & Science University in 2013. As a postdoctoral researcher in the de Lecea lab, he leads an NIH/NIAAA K99-funded research program that aims to uncover the neurobiological mechanisms driving maladaptive changes in stress reactivity and sleep/wake architecture that facilitate dysregulated patterns of reward-seeking in alcohol addiction. Will previously received F31 and F32 NIH NRSA fellowships to fund predoctoral and postdoctoral training on the neurocircuit basis of peptide signaling molecules in stress and addiction, and authored 20 peer-reviewed publications on this topic. He serves as an academic and research mentor for numerous trainees, and is an active participant in professional organizations including the Society for Neuroscience, the Research Society on Alcoholism, and the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology. Outside of the lab, Will enjoys playing ...

If we shut down, then we and our patients with depression, schizophrenia and other mental illnesses lose hope for any improvement in their situation in our lifetimes. I still think we can innovate (Stahl 2006), but we need a new model and I will get back to you with suggestions from the Royal Society of Medicine meeting when I return. Some good ideas are coming mostly from Europe as the US is still intent on shutting down Pharma. As a former Lilly president told me recently, We will someday be a great Chinese drug company. To reverse this trend and keep this industry in the US, we can try to support innovation through the NIH, and I have volunteered to serve on advisory committees on new drug development if that ever gets off the ground; but this NIH drug development effort is now threatened by the current US budget austerity. We can try to do it though academia, or small companies. The ECNP (European College of Neuropsychopharmacology) of which I am a member has some creative ideas which I ...
