TL;DR: The binding of [3H]haloperidol to rat striatal dopamine receptors increases after lesion (made by injection of 6-hydroxydopamine) of the nigrostriatal dopamine pathway in those rats which are behaviorally supersensitive, as reflected by apomorphine-induced contralateral rotations.
Abstract: The binding of [3H]haloperidol to rat striatal dopamine receptors increases after lesion (made by injection of 6-hydroxydopamine) of the nigrostriatal dopamine pathway in those rats which are behaviorally supersensitive, as reflected by apomorphine-induced contralateral rotations. The enhanced binding is associated with an increased number of receptor sites with no change in their affinity.

TL;DR: A review of the evidence for the role of diabetes mellitus in susceptibility to, clinical presentation of, and response to treatment for tuberculosis can be found in this paper, where potential mechanisms by which diabetes can cause tuberculosis, the effects of tuberculosis on diabetic control, and pharmacokinetic issues related to the co-management of diabetes and tuberculosis.
Abstract: The link between diabetes mellitus and tuberculosis has been recognised for centuries. In recent decades, tuberculosis incidence has declined in high-income countries, but incidence remains high in countries that have high rates of infection with HIV, high prevalence of malnutrition and crowded living conditions, or poor tuberculosis control infrastructure. At the same time, diabetes mellitus prevalence is soaring globally, fuelled by obesity. There is growing evidence that diabetes mellitus is an important risk factor for tuberculosis and might affect disease presentation and treatment response. Furthermore, tuberculosis might induce glucose intolerance and worsen glycaemic control in people with diabetes. We review the epidemiology of the tuberculosis and diabetes epidemics, and provide a synopsis of the evidence for the role of diabetes mellitus in susceptibility to, clinical presentation of, and response to treatment for tuberculosis. In addition, we review potential mechanisms by which diabetes mellitus can cause tuberculosis, the effects of tuberculosis on diabetic control, and pharmacokinetic issues related to the co-management of diabetes and tuberculosis.

TL;DR: An overview of the physiological and pathological roles of NRF2 is provided, emerging pharmacological modulators of theNRF2–KEAP1 axis are presented and associated drug development challenges are highlighted.
Abstract: The transcription factor NF-E2 p45-related factor 2 (NRF2; encoded by NFE2L2) and its principal negative regulator, the E3 ligase adaptor Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), are critical in the maintenance of redox, metabolic and protein homeostasis, as well as the regulation of inflammation. Thus, NRF2 activation provides cytoprotection against numerous pathologies including chronic diseases of the lung and liver; autoimmune, neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders; and cancer initiation. One NRF2 activator has received clinical approval and several electrophilic modifiers of the cysteine-based sensor KEAP1 and inhibitors of its interaction with NRF2 are now in clinical development. However, challenges regarding target specificity, pharmacodynamic properties, efficacy and safety remain.
