A series of substituted phenylethylamines were examined for their relative potencies to 1) release and inhibit accumulation of labeled serotonin in brain synaptosomes, 2) compete with serotonin receptor binding and 3) induce the "serotonin syndrome" in mice. In general, the

Neuropharmacological studies of Schistosoma mansoni were conducted in vitro using visual observations of motor activity and measurements of worm length and extracellular electrical activity. The instrumentation and methodology described quantitatively measure extracellular electrical potentials associated with motor activity, and provide
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is a central enzyme in the metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells, providing activated one-carbon units in the serine-glycine one-carbon metabolism. Previous studies demonstrated that the cytoplasmic isoform of SHMT (SHMT1) plays a relevant role in lung cancer.
Harmane and norharmane (two beta-carbolines) are tobacco components or products. The effects of harmane and norharmane on serotonergic raphe neurons remain unknown. Harmane and norharmane are inhibitors of the monoamine oxidases A (MAO-A) and B (MAO-B), respectively. To study the
