1. Functional consequences of dopaminergic degeneration : Clinical and experimental studies using a novel stabilizer of dopaminergic systems
Sammanfattning : Since the introduction of levodopa for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) 30 yearsago, the emergence of motor complications, such as levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID), hasbeen a major clinical problem in advanced stages of the disease. Clinical and preclinical studieshave revealed a number of functional changes in the dopaminergic system that may be ofimportance for the emergence of LIDs. LÄS MER
2. Synthesis, Pharmacological Characterization and QSAR Modelling of 4-Phenylpiperidines and 4-Phenylpiperazines Effects on the dopaminergic neurotransmission in vivo
Sammanfattning : The endogenous neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) is involved in several functions that are controlled from the central nervous system (CNS), for example behaviour, memory, cognition and reward. A disturbed dopaminergic neurotransmission may lead to many severe conditions, such as schizophrenia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or Parkinson's disease (PD). LÄS MER
3. Dopaminergic stabilizers for the treatment of schizophrenia. Rat studies focusing on negative symptoms and mechanisms of action
Sammanfattning : Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder manifested by positive, negative and cognitive symptoms. Current antipsychotic drugs have poor effects on negative and cognitive symptoms, thus necessitating the development of new antipsychotic treatments. Dopaminergic stabilizers constitute a novel concept for the treatment of schizophrenia. LÄS MER
4. The monoamine stabilizer (-)-OSU6162 : a potential novel treatment for alcohol use disorders
Sammanfattning : Alcohol use disorder (AUD) represent a major health problem worldwide. Despite the severe consequences of AUD, only four medications are approved in Sweden for this disease. In addition, the prescription rates are low, partly due to varying clinical efficacy of these medications. Consequently, new, more effective pharmacotherapies are needed. LÄS MER
5. The role of the dopamine system in the ability of (-)-OSU6162 to reduce voluntary alcohol drinking and binge-eating in the rat
Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The dopamine system is involved in the reinforcing effects of both food and alcohol and is thus a potential treatment target for alcohol use disorder (AUD) and binge-eating disorder (BED). Alcohol use disorder is characterized by difficulties to control alcohol drinking and by drinking despite adverse consequences. LÄS MER
