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

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

    Abstract : 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). READ MORE

  4. 2. Benzodiazepine and opioid dependence. Clinical and meta-analytical studies

    Author : Björn Axel Johansson; Kliniskt Centrum för Hälsofrämjande Vård; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; clinical psychology; psychosomatics; Psychiatry; meta-analysis; opioid dependence; RCT; naltrexone; prescribed drugs; maintenance treatment; methadone; withdrawal symptoms; benzodiazepine dependence; DSM-IV; Psykiatri; klinisk psykologi; psykosomatik;

    Abstract : The thesis contains 4 papers, two clinical studies and two meta-analyses. In the BZD taper study (Paper I) 21 BZD dependent (DSM-IV) patients were included for a 10-day inpatient detoxification. The average defined daily dose (DDD) was 4.7 doses. READ MORE

  5. 3. Taste Hedonics and the Intake of Alcohol and Food

    Author : Anna Söderpalm; Göteborgs universitet; Göteborgs universitet; Gothenburg University; []
    Keywords : Alcohol drinking; Adrenalectomy; Corticosterone; Cyanoketone; Food intake; Food restriction; GABA; Metyrapone; Taste reactivity; Benzodiazepine; Chlordiazepoxide; Cis Z -flupentixol; Diazepam; Flumazenil; Microinjections; Midazolam; Nucleus of the Solitary tract; Palatability; Parabrachial nucleus; Peduculopontine Tegmental Nucleus; Reward; 4th ventricle.;

    Abstract : This thesis includes four papers based on animal experimental work. They analyze the way in which activation of a specific motivational state - hunger- modulates the rewarding actions of alcohol and taste palatability. READ MORE

  7. 5. Design and Synthesis of AT2 Receptor Selective Angiotensin II Analogues Encompassing β- and γ-Turn Mimetics

    Author : Ulrika Rosenström; Anders Hallberg; Stephen Hanessian; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Angiotensin II; AT2; AT1; Benzodiazepine; Peptidomimetics; γ-turn; β-turn; Farmaceutisk kemi; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Farmaceutisk kemi;

    Abstract : Important information on the bioactive conformation of biologically active peptides may be obtained by studies of rigid peptides or well-defined secondary structure mimetics incorporated into pseudopeptides. The structural requirements for the interaction of angiotensin II (Ang II, Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe) with its AT1 and AT2 receptors were the subject of this study. READ MORE
