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
Abnormal oxidative stress was observed in hyperphenylalaninemia and other inborn errors of intermediary metabolism, owing to the accumulation of toxic metabolites, free radical production and increased LPO products. In our model of maternal hyperphenylalaninemia, pregnant rats were injected with 300
Using a push-pull cannula technique and an isotopic method for estimating [3H]serotonin continuously synthesized from [3H]tryptophan, the effects of changes in the release of serotonin in the dorsalis raphe nucleus on in vivo release of [3H]serotonin in the cat caudate
Enzymes of intermediary metabolism are often reported to have moonlighting functions as RNA-binding proteins and have regulatory roles beyond their primary activities. Human serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is essential for the one-carbon metabolism, which sustains growth and proliferation in normal and
