MicroRNAs and apoptosis: implications in the molecular therapy of human diseaseClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology - Tập 36 Số 10 - Trang 951-960 - 2009
Baofeng Yang, Yanjie Lu, Zhiguo Wang
Summary1. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), the small non‐coding RNAs of approximately 22
nucleotides, are now recognized as a very large family present throughout the
genomes of plants and metazoans. These small transcripts modulate protein
expression by binding to complementary or partially complementary target
protein‐coding mRNAs and targeting them for degradation or translational
inhibition.2. The discover... hiện toàn bộ
Synthesis, characterization, molecular modelling and biological evaluation of thieno‐pyrimidinone methanesulphonamide thio‐derivatives as non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory agentsClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology - Tập 45 Số 9 - Trang 952-960 - 2018

SummaryThis study reports the synthesis, molecular docking and biological
evaluation of eight (5‐8 and 5a‐8a) newly synthesized thieno‐pyrimidinone
methanesulphonamide thio‐derivatives. The synthetic route used to prepare the
new isomers thioaryl and thio‐cycloesyl derivatives of the heterocyclic system
6‐phenylthieno[3,2]pyrimidinone was economically and environmentally very
advantageous and char... hiện toàn bộ
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE DOSE‐RESPONSE EFFECTS OF DIAZEPAM AND CLOBAZAM ON ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHIC PARAMETERS AND ON KINDLED AMYGDALOID SEIZURE ACTIVITY IN RATSClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology - Tập 15 Số 10 - Trang 753-764 - 1988
Q.L. Genghis Harris, Stephen J. Lewis, Nicole A. Young, Frank Vajda, Bevyn Jarrott
SUMMARY1. The possibility that the anticonvulsant activity of the
benzodiazepines, diazepam and clobazam, is related to changes in EEG parameters,
particularly β activity, was investigated in amygdaloid kindled rats.2. The
effects of diazepam (1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 μmol/kg), administered intraperitoneally
(i.p.), clobazam (1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32 μmol/kg, i.p.) or vehicle (dimethyl
sulfoxide) on the cor... hiện toàn bộ
Ferulic acid improves lipid and glucose homeostasis in high‐fat diet‐induced obese miceClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology - Tập 43 Số 2 - Trang 242-250 - 2016

SummaryFerulic acid (FA) is a plant phenolic acid that has several
pharmacological effects including antihyperglycaemic activity. Thus, the
objective of this study is to investigate the effect of FA on glucose and lipid
metabolism in high‐fat diet (HFD)‐induced obese mice. Institute for Cancer
Research (ICR) mice were fed a HFD (45 kcal% fat) for 16 weeks. At the ninth
week of induction, the obese... hiện toàn bộ
MECHANOSENSORY PERCEPTION: ARE THERE CONTRIBUTIONS FROM BONE‐ASSOCIATED RECEPTORS?Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology - Tập 32 Số 1-2 - Trang 100-108 - 2005

SUMMARY1. The identity of the receptors and afferent nerve fibres that mediate
the sense of touch varies somewhat with body location. Those that have been most
intensively characterized are associated with the distal glabrous skin of the
limbs and, in primates, mediate the sense of touch in the fingertips and palms.
In this glabrous skin region, there appear to be three or four principal classes

Icaritin inhibits the invasion and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition of glioblastoma cells by targeting EMMPRIN via PTEN/AKt/HIF‐1α signallingClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology - Tập 42 Số 12 - Trang 1296-1307 - 2015
Bo Xu, Chuanwu Jiang, Hongxing Han, Hong Liu, Ming Tang, Longxi Liu, Wenyan Ji, Xuechao Lu, Xiuli Yang, Yunxu Zhang, Yongji Liu
SummaryIcaritin, a hydrolytic product of icariin from the Epimedium genus,
exerts anti‐tumour effects on a variety of tumour cell types, mainly by
inhibiting cell proliferation and inducing apoptosis. However, little is known
about the role of icaritin in cancer invasion and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal
transition (EMT). In the present study, the glioblastoma (GBM) cell line U87MG
was used as a model... hiện toàn bộ
CEREBRAL UPTAKE OF DRUGS IN HUMANSClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology - Tập 34 Số 8 - Trang 695-701 - 2007
Richard N. Upton
SUMMARY Drugs that target the central nervous system (CNS) are under‐represented
in the pharmacopoeia because of the difficulties of overcoming passive and
active defences of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). Methods have been developed in
drug discovery to make decisions about whether a compound crosses the BBB. Less
is known about how the rate and extent of CNS penetration of a drug affects its
cli... hiện toàn bộ
Gastric cancer management: Kinases as a target therapyClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology - Tập 44 Số 6 - Trang 613-622 - 2017
Batoul Farran, Susanne Müller, Raquel Carvalho Montenegro
SummaryThe molecular diagnostics revolution has reshaped the practice of
oncology by facilitating the identification of genetic, epigenetic and proteomic
modifications correlated with cancer, thus delineating ‘oncomaps’ for various
cancer types. These advances have enhanced our understanding of gastric cancer,
one of the most fatal diseases worldwide, and culminated in the approval of
novel molecu... hiện toàn bộ
