Designing Safer Analgesics via mu-Opioid Receptor Pathways

Pain is both a major clinical and economic problem, affecting more people than diabetes, heart disease, and cancer combined. While a variety of prescribed or over-the-counter (OTC) medications are available for pain management, opioid medications, especial ...

Pharmacological stimulation to facilitate and restore standing and walking functions in spinal cord motor disorders

Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Pavel Musienko

The invention relates to the selective targeting of specific α2 adrenergic receptor subtypes for facilitating and also restoring standing and walking in a subject affected by spinal cord disorders, in particular spinal cord injury. In particular, the impro ...

The Mechanism of Ligand-Induced Activation or Inhibition of - and -Opioid Receptors

Horst Arthur Vogel, Shuguang Yuan

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are important targets for treating severe diseases. However why certain molecules act as activators whereas others, with similar structures, block GPCR activation, is poorly understood since the same molecule can activat ...

Portable Technologies for Self-Monitoring of Coagulation Time: A Review

Philippe Renaud, Lynda Metref

Anti-coagulation treatments are required for medical conditions that become more and more frequent with the ageing of the population in developed countries (atrial fibrillation, deep-venous thrombosis, heart prosthetic valves, etc.). These treatments gener ...

A Fluorescent Sensor for GABA and Synthetic GABA(B) Receptor Ligands

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond, Anastasiya Masharina

While gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter, suitable tools to measure its concentration in living cells with high spatiotemporal resolution are missing. Herein, we describe the first ratiometric fluorescent sensor for GABA ...

Predicting Novel Binding Modes of Agonists to β Adrenergic Receptors Using All-Atom Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Marilisa Neri, Stefano Vanni

Understanding the binding mode of agonists to adrenergic receptors is crucial to enabling improved rational design of new therapeutic agents. However, so far the high conformational flexibility of G protein-coupled receptors has been an obstacle to obtaini ...
