Monoamine receptor agonists, acting preferentially at presynaptic autoreceptors and heteroreceptors, downregulate the cell fate adaptor FADD in rat brain cortex.
Neuropharmacology 89 , 204-14, (2014) FADD is a crucial adaptor of death receptors that can engage apoptosis or survival actions (e.g. neuroplasticity) through its phosphorylated form (p-FADD). Although FADD was shown to participate in receptor mechanisms related to drugs of abuse, little is know... |

Gene expression analyses identify Narp contribution in the development of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia.
J. Neurosci. 35(1) , 96-111, (2015) In Parkinson's disease, long-term dopamine replacement therapy is complicated by the appearance of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID). One major hypothesis is that LID results from an aberrant transcriptional program in striatal neurons induced by L-DOPA and tri... |

In vitro metabolic conversion of the organic breakdown products of glucosinolate to goitrogenic thiocyanate anion.
J. Sci. Food Agric. 95 , 2244-51, (2015) Glucosinolates are abundant in Brassicaceae vegetables, and they are degraded into various organic breakdown products (BPs) (R-CN, -NCS and -SCN) by myrosinase when plant tissues are damaged. This study was designed to investigate whether these BPs could be b... |

Isolation and characterization of a nitrile hydrolysing acidotolerant black yeast-Exophiala oligosperma R1.
Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 75(4) , 899-908, (2007) Different nitriles were used as sole sources of nitrogen in a series of enrichments under acidic conditions to isolate acidotolerant nitriles hydrolysing microorganisms. From an enrichment in Na-citrate-phosphate buffer at pH 4 with glucose as carbon source a... |

Biotransformation of phenylacetonitrile to 2-hydroxyphenylacetic acid by marine fungi.
Mar. Biotechnol. 15(1) , 97-103, (2013) Marine fungi belonging to the genera Aspergillus, Penicillium, Cladosporium, and Bionectria catalyzed the biotransformation of phenylacetonitrile to 2-hydroxyphenylacetic acid. Eight marine fungi, selected and cultured with phenylacetonitrile in liquid minera... |

Operant ethanol self-administration increases extracellular-signal regulated protein kinase (ERK) phosphorylation in reward-related brain regions: selective regulation of positive reinforcement in the prefrontal cortex of C57BL/6J mice.
Psychopharmacology 232 , 3417-30, (2015) Extracellular-signal regulated protein kinase (ERK1/2) is activated by ethanol in reward-related brain regions. Accordingly, systemic inhibition of ERK1/2 potentiates ethanol reinforcement. However, the brain region(s) that mediate this effect are unknown.Thi... |

Utilization of arylaliphatic nitriles by haloalkaliphilic Halomonas nitrilicus sp. nov. isolated from soda soils.
Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 81(2) , 371-8, (2008) An enrichment culture from saline soda soils, using acetate as carbon and energy source and 2-phenylpropionitrile as nitrogen source (PPN) at pH 10, resulted in the isolation of strain ANL-alpha CH3. The strain was identified as a representative of the genus ... |

Herbivore-induced phenylacetonitrile is biosynthesized from de novo-synthesized L-phenylalanine in the giant knotweed, Fallopia sachalinensis.
FEBS Lett. 587(12) , 1811-7, (2013) Plants emit a series of characteristic volatile blends when damaged by insect feeding. Phenylacetonitrile is one of the volatiles from the leaves of the giant knotweed, Fallopia sachalinensis, infested by the Japanese beetle, Popillia japonica, or treated wit... |

Solvent-free condensation of phenylacetonitrile and nonanenitrile with 4-methoxybenzaldehyde: optimization and mechanistic studies.
Org. Biomol. Chem. 3(8) , 1534-40, (2005) The condensation of phenylacetonitrile with 4-methoxybenzaldehyde can be carried out by two solvent-free methods: i) using neat powdered KOH at room temperature with equivalent amounts of aldehyde, nitrile and base for 3 min, and ii) using K2CO3 in the presen... |
