Optimization of (Arylpiperazinylbutyl)oxindoles Exhibiting Selective 5-HT(7) Receptor Antagonist Activity.

A series of (arylpiperazinylbutyl)oxindoles as highly potent 5-HT(7) receptor antagonists has been studied for their selectivity toward the 5-HT(1A) receptor and α(1)-adrenoceptor. Several derivative...

Lack of association between the P2X7 receptor A1513C polymorphism and susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis: a meta-analysis.

SUMMARY AT A GLANCE: The results from this first meta-analysis indicated that there is no association between the P2X7 receptor A1513C polymorphism and susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis. ABSTRA...

Involvement of dopamine receptors in the antidepressant-like effect of melatonin in the tail suspension test.

Melatonin was previously shown to produce an antidepressant-like effect in the tail suspension test. In this work the mechanisms underlying its antidepressant-like effect were further studied by inves...

5-HT(1A) receptor and apoptosis contribute to interferon-α-induced "depressive-like" behavior in mice.

Interferon-α (IFN-α)-induced "depressive-like" behavior is a major limitation for the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV), especially for patients with psychiatric disorders. Recently, serotonin 1A...

Role of 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(1B) receptors in the antidepressant-like effect of piperine in the forced swim test.

Our previous studies have showed that treating mice with piperine significantly decreased the immobility time of the animals in the forced swim test and tail suspension test, which was related to up-r...
