  1. 1. Pharmacophore Refinement and Lead Optimization - A study of the benzodiazepine site of the GABAA receptors

    Författare :Erik Lager; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organisk kemi; Organic chemistry; Naturvetenskap; Natural science; Quinolone; Flavone; Pharmacophore; GABA; Benzodiazepine;

    Sammanfattning : Structure activity relationship studies of synthetic flavone derivatives have been utilized to refine and evaluate a pharmacophore model of the benzodiazepine binding site of the GABAA receptors, originally developed by Zhang et al. (Drug Des. Discovery 1995, 12, 193-248). LÄS MER

  3. 2. Natural Products as Leads for Pharmaceutically Active Compounds

    Författare :Pia Kahnberg; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; scaffold hopping; Catalyst; anxiety; benzodiazepine site; GABAA receptor; pharmacophore model; flavones; SAR; antifungal activity; Complex I; pterulone; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Biochemical technology; Biokemisk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : In the search for new pharmaceutically active compounds, it is recognized that Nature produces structurally different compounds in a great variety. By having the compounds or extracts tested in defined systems, new drugs or more often leads (a compound that has an interesting but moderate activity) can be found. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Development of in vitro and ex vivo positron-emitting tracer techniques and their application to neurotrauma

    Författare :Sven Sihver; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Short-lived radionuclides; in vitro receptor binding; in vitro and ex vivo autoradiography; positron emission tomography; benzodiazepine; muscarinic acetylcholine; and NMDA receptors in CNS; experimental neurotrauma; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; medicinsk farmakologi; Medical Pharmacology;

    Sammanfattning : The use of positron-emitting tracers has been extended beyond tomographic facilities in the last few years, giving rise to a general positron-emitting tracing technique. The methodological part of the present thesis involved the evaluation of the performance of storage phosphor (SP) plates, with tracers labeled with high-energy, short-lived, positron-emitting radionuclides, using homogenized tissue specimens and autoradiography with frozen brain sections.

  5. 4. The optic tectum of the salmon:site of interaction of neurohormonal photoperiodic and neural visual signals. The GABAergic neuronal system and melatonin receptors

    Författare :Marie Anzelius; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Animal anatomy; melatonin receptors; GABA; optic tectum; fish; brain; animal morphology; Djurs anatomi och morfologi;

    Sammanfattning : Melatonin is a neurohormone which mediates photoperiodic signals from the pineal organ to the brain. GABA (g-aminobutyric acid) is the major inhibitory transmitter in the central nervous system. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The GABAA Receptor as Target for Novel Heterocyclic Compounds

    Författare :Jakob Nilsson; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Ligands for the benzodiazepine-binding site of the GABAA receptor can belong to structurally diverse classes of compounds including, in spite of the name of the binding site, many non-benzodiazepine structures. The GABAA receptor is a ligand-gated ion channel assembled of five subunits from eight different classes with multiple isoforms. LÄS MER
