TLDR
In this article, a new generation of highly selective, efficacious and druggable biased agonists have been identified which exhibit increased affinity at 5-HT1A receptors and new profiles of cellular signaling bias, notably for β-arrestin recruitment versus pERK.

Biased β-Agonists Favoring Gs over β-Arrestin for Individualized Treatment of Obstructive Lung Disease

TL;DR: It is shown how combinatorial methods with a 40 million compound agnostic library led to a new class of biased β-agonists that do not desensitize, providing an opportunity to personalize therapy in patients who experience poor efficacy or adverse effects from traditional balanced agonists.

Molecular Imaging in Parkinsonian Disorders—What’s New and Hot?

TL;DR: The role of molecular imaging in the context of disease-modifying interventions to follow neurodegeneration, ensure stratification, and target engagement in clinical trials is reviewed and the most recent advances in molecular imaging for the diagnosis, prognosis, and mechanistic understanding of parkinsonian disorders are reviewed.

The pathophysiology of Post SSRI Sexual Dysfunction - Lessons from a case study.

TL;DR: In this paper , a 55-year-old male patient developed symptoms of low libido, delayed ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, brain zaps, overactive bladder and urinary inconsistency after discontinuation of the SNRI venlafaxine.

Acute and Repeated Administration of NLX-101, a Selective Serotonin-1A Receptor Biased Agonist, Reduces Audiogenic Seizures in Developing Fmr1 Knockout Mice

TL;DR: In this article , a selective and post-synaptic 5-HT1A receptor biased agonist, 3-Chloro-4fluorophenyl-[4-fluoro-4]-4-methyl-methyl)amino]methyl]piperidin-1-yl] methanone (NLX-101, 0.6, 1.8 or 2.4 mg/kg, i.p., was administered to Fmr1 KO mice 15 min before seizure induction.

Neuropathological stageing of Alzheimer-related changes.

Heiko Braak, +1 more
TL;DR: The investigation showed that recognition of the six stages required qualitative evaluation of only a few key preparations, permitting the differentiation of six stages.

Validation of open:closed arm entries in an elevated plus-maze as a measure of anxiety in the rat.

TL;DR: A novel test for the selective identification of anxiolytic and anxiogenic drug effects in the rat is described, using an elevated + -maze consisting of two open arms and two enclosed arms, which showed that behaviour on the maze was not clearly correlated either with exploratory head-dipping or spontaneous locomotor activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A ternary complex model explains the agonist-specific binding properties of the adenylate cyclase-coupled beta-adrenergic receptor.

TL;DR: In this paper, a ternary complex model was used to fit the data with high accuracy under conditions where the ligand used is either a full or a partial agonist and where the system is altered by the addition of guanine nucleotide or after treatment with group-specific reagents.

A mouse Mecp2-null mutation causes neurological symptoms that mimic rett syndrome

TL;DR: The overlapping delay before symptom onset in humans and mice raises the possibility that stability of brain function, not brain development per se, is compromised by the absence of MeCP2, and generates mice lacking Mecp2 using Cre-loxP technology.

Chronic mild stress-induced anhedonia : a realistic animal model of depression

TL;DR: The validity of chronic mild stress-induced anhedonia as an animal model of depression is reviewed, and the evidence that changes in hedonic responsiveness in this model are mediated by changes in the sensitivity of dopamine D2 receptors in the nucleus accumbens is reviewed.
