Serotonin (5-HT) plays a key role in the neural circuitry mediating unconditioned and conditioned fear responses related to panic and generalized anxiety disorders. The basolateral nucleus of the amygdala (BLA) and the dorsal periaqueductal gray (dPAG) appear to be mainly

Vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) is an endothelial, cell surface-expressed oxidase involved in leukocyte traffic. The adhesive function of VAP-1 can be blocked by anti-VAP-1 Abs and small-molecule inhibitors. However, the effects of VAP-1 blockade on antitumor immunity and tumor progression

The novel biotransformation of an aminopyrrolidine to an aminopiperidine during the metabolism of 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methyl-2-((2R)-2-(((1-methylethyl)amino)methyl)-1-pyrrolidinyl)-6-(4-pyridinyl)-4(3H)-pyrimidinone (AMG657417) was investigated using the NADPH-fortified S9 fraction from human liver. The major metabolite (M18) had a protonated molecule (MH(+) m/z 438) identical to that of

Azodicarbonamide, as a bleaching agent and improving agent, is a permitted food additive in certain countries and can be determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. However, it partially degrades with the heat of processing to form trace amounts of semicarbazide, which
In order to find novel chitin synthesis inhibitors (CSIs) with good activity, benzoylphenylurea, a typical kind of CSIs, was chosen as the lead compound and 15 novel derivatives containing furan moieties were designed by converting the urea linkage of benzoylphenylureas
