Investigating Cannabinoid Type-1 Receptor (Cb1r) Positive Allosteric Modulators (Pams) In Mouse Models Of Overt Cannabimimetic Activity, Subjective Drug Effects, And Neuropathic Pain, Jayden Elmer

Theses and Dissertations

Chronic pain affects between 20 and 30 percent of the adult population in western countries and represents a wide array of specific etiologies (Berge, 2011). Neuropathic pain secondary to traumatic nerve injury, chemotherapeutic toxicity, or diseases (e.g., diabetes mellitus) is often refractory to conventional analgesics, with patients receiving less than 50% pain relief compared to placebo (Finnerup et al. 2010). The endocannabinoid system has shown potential as a therapeutic target for neuropathic pain wherein CB1 agonism via administration of exogenous agonists or pharmacological blockade of endocannabinoid catabolic enzymes exhibits efficacy in reversing allodynia in the chronic constriction injury (CCI) model …

Pharmacophoric Evaluation Of 5-Ht2a And 5-Ht2b Serotonin Recpeptors, Prithvi Hemanth

Theses and Dissertations

Serotonin (5-HT) receptors represent a class of receptors involved in a variety of physiological processes including regulation of mood, perception, cognition, appetite, and heart function, and thus serve as drug targets of several drugs such as antipsychotic agents, hallucinogenic drugs, and appetite suppressant drugs. Due to the structural similarity of certain 5-HT receptor subtypes, particularly 5-HT₂ receptors (5-HT_2A, 5-HT_2B receptors) determination and refinement of pharmacophore models of these receptor subtypes can greatly improve the therapeutic efficacy of drugs that target them.

The goals of this study were to define and/or refine existing pharmacophore models for 5-HT …

Interclass Gpcr Heteromerization Affects Localization And Trafficking, Rudy Toneatti

Theses and Dissertations

Class A serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) 2A (5-HT_2AR) and class C metabotropic glutamate 2 receptors (mGluR2) are seven transmembrane receptors (7TMRs or G protein-coupled receptors – GPCRs) involved in multiple neuropsychiatric disorders including schizophrenia. Previous findings from our laboratory reported that 5-HT_2AR and mGluR2 are dysregulated in the prefrontal cortex of patients suffering from this psychiatric condition, although 5-HT_2AR’s expression was recovered in antipsychotic-medicated patients. Genome-wide association studies on schizophrenia reported that endosomal trafficking that regulates cell surface abundance of another 7TMR implicated in this disease (dopamine D2 receptor) can be altered. Ligand-activated receptors, including the …

The Cb1 Receptor Positive Allosteric Modulator, Zcz011, Attenuates Naloxone-Precipitated Withdrawal Signs In Oxycodone-Dependent Mice And Inhibits Small Intestinal Transit In Mice, Julien Dodu

Theses and Dissertations

The endogenous cannabinoid system tightly regulates a myriad of physiological and pathophysiological functions. Effects of cannabinoids in ameliorating opioid withdrawal signs has been known for decades. Naloxone precipitates several withdrawal signs (e.g., diarrhea, weight loss, jumps, paw flutters, and head shakes) in opioid dependent rodents. ∆⁹-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has been shown to ameliorate opioid withdrawal in mice through the activation of cannabinoid type-1 (CB₁) receptors. Inhibition of the endocannabinoid degradative enzymes also attenuates these withdrawal signs (i.e., diarrhea, weight loss, jumps, paw flutters, and head shakes) in opioid-dependent mice. Specifically, inhibition of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), …

Regulation Of In Vitro And In Vivo Hepatic Stellate Cell Activation By The Ayrl Hydrocarbon Receptor, Shivakumar Rayavara Veerabhadraiah

Boise State University Theses and Dissertations

Liver fibrosis is a pathological condition characterized by the excessive deposition of extracellular matrix material by activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). We recently reported that activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-activated transcription factor, with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) increases HSC activation in vitro and in mouse models of experimental liver fibrosis. The goal of this project was to determine the mechanism by which AhR activation impacts HSC activation and the subsequent development of liver fibrosis. It is possible that HSCs are direct cellular targets for TCDD. Alternatively, TCDD could increase HSC activation indirectly by exacerbating hepatocyte damage …

The Effects Of Eating A High Fat Diet On Sensitivity Of Rats To Methamphetamine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference, Kayla Galindo

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

Eating a high fat diet causes several negative health consequences, including dysfunction to dopamine systems. For example, eating a high fat diet enhances sensitivity of rats to methamphetamine-induced locomotor sensitization. However, it is not known if sensitivity to other (i.e., the rewarding) effects of methamphetamine are similarly enhanced in rats eating a high fat diet. Females are more sensitive than males to the behavioral effects of stimulants in general, and therefore might also be particularly vulnerable to the effects of diet on the rewarding effects of stimulant drugs. To test the hypoThesis that eating high fat chow enhances sensitivity of …

Develop A High-Throughput Screening Method To Identify C-P4h1 (Collagen Prolyl 4-Hydroxylase 1) Inhibitors From Fda-Approved Chemicals, Shike Wang, Kuo-Hao Lee, Nathália Victoria Araujo, Chang-Guo Zhan, Vivek M. Rangnekar, Ren Xu

Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

Collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase 1 (C-P4H1) is an α-ketoglutarate (α-KG)-dependent dioxygenase that catalyzes 4-hydroxylation of proline on collagen. C-P4H1-induced prolyl hydroxylation is required for proper collagen deposition and cancer metastasis. Therefore, targeting C-P4H1 is considered a potential therapeutic strategy for collagen-related cancer progression and metastasis. However, no C-P4H1 inhibitors are available for clinical testing, and the high content assay is currently not available for C-P4H1 inhibitor screening. In the present study, we developed a high-throughput screening assay by quantifying succinate, a byproduct of C-P4H-catalyzed hydroxylation. C-P4H1 is the major isoform of collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases (CP4Hs) that contributes the majority prolyl 4-hydroxylase …
