Newest firstThe present study investigates the effects of cannabidiol (CBD), the major non-psychoactive compound of Cannabis sativa L. extracts, on ferroptotic cell death in human articular chondrocytes. Exposure to known ferroptosis inducers RSL3, erastin and its analogue IKE, FINO2 and FIN56 led to a varying extent of reduced cell viability in two chondrocyte cell lines (in C-28/I2, T/C-28/A2) and primary chondrocytes, sugg…
Open article record in new tab ↗The second-generation tau radioligand [18F]florzolotau is a promising biomarker for 4-repeat (4R) tauopathies such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD), which are difficult to disentangle clinically. Prior studies evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of [18F]florzolotau PET focused on highly selected patient populations (e.g., PSP-Richardson syndrome or amyloid-β-negative corti…
The relationship between in vivo synaptic density and molecular pathology in primary tauopathies is key to understanding the impact of tauopathy on functional decline and in informing new early therapeutic strategies. In this cross-sectional observational study, we determine the in vivo relationship between synaptic density and molecular pathology in the primary tauopathies of progressive supranuclear palsy and co…
Open article record in new tab ↗Tauopathies are a subclass of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by an accumulation of microtubule binding tau fibrils in brain regions. Diseases such as Alzheimer's (AD), chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), Pick's disease (PiD), and corticobasal degeneration (CBD) belong to this subclass. Development of tracers which can visualize and discriminate between different tauopathies is of clinical importance…
Open article record in new tab ↗Introduction Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a tauopathy associated to repetitive head trauma. There are no validated in vivo biomarkers of CTE and a definite diagnosis can only be made at autopsy. Recent studies have shown that positron emission tomography (PET) tracer AV-1451 (Flortaucipir) exhibits high binding affinity for paired helical filament (PHF)-tau aggregates in Alzheimer (AD) brains but rela…
The biochemical targets for antidepressants are relatively well established, but we lack a clear understanding of how actions at these proteins translate to clinical benefits. This study used a novel rodent assay to investigate how different antidepressant drugs act to modify affective biases that have been implicated in depression. In this bowl-digging task, rats encounter two equal value learning experiences on…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Both T-type calcium channels and cannabinoid receptors modulate signalling in the primary afferent pain pathway. Here, we investigate the analgesics activities of a series of novel cannabinoid receptor ligands with T-type calcium channel blocking activity. Results Novel compounds were characterized in radioligand binding assays and in vitro functional assays at human and rat CB1 and CB2 receptors. The i…
