Serotonergic signalling suppresses ataxin 3 aggregation and neurotoxicity in animal models of Machado-Joseph disease.

Brain 138 , 3221-37, (2015)

Polyglutamine diseases are a class of dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorders for which there is no effective treatment. Here we provide evidence that activation of serotonergic signalling is beneficial in animal models of Machado-Joseph disease. We ...

German insurer finds a third of people over 65 take five or more drugs a day.

Pharmacological treatment of tic disorders and Tourette Syndrome.

Neuropharmacology 68 , 143-9, (2013)

The present review gives an overview of current pharmacological treatment options of tic disorders and Tourette Syndrome (TS). After a short summary on phenomenology, clinical course and comorbid conditions we review indications for pharmacological treatment ...

Tiapride. A review of its pharmacology and therapeutic potential in the management of alcohol dependence syndrome.

Drugs 47 , 1010, (1994)

Tiapride, an atypical neuroleptic agent, is a selective dopamine D2-receptor antagonist with little propensity for causing catalepsy and sedation. It shows preferential activity at receptors previously sensitised to dopamine and those located extrastriatally....

Clinical and neurobiological findings in children suffering from tic disease following treatment with tiapride.

Eur. Arch. Psychiatry Neurol. Sci. 237(4) , 223-9, (1988)

Tiapride, a substituted benzamide derivative, possesses good clinical antidyskinetic properties due to its DA2-blocking activities. It has been shown to be clinically effective in the treatment of tic disease in children. In order to study tiapride's antidysk...

Coadministration of L-NOARG and tiapride: effects on catalepsy in male mice.

Prog. Neuropsychopharmacol. Biol. Psychiatry 26(1) , 69-73, (2002)

This study was designed to determine the possible potentiation of catalepsy behavior after coadministration of N(G)-nitro-L-arginine (L-NOARG), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), and tiapride, a specific antagonist for D2 receptors, in male mice. Ca...

Differential regulation of D2 and D4 dopamine receptor mRNAs in the primate cerebral cortex vs. neostriatum: effects of chronic treatment with typical and atypical antipsychotic drugs.

J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 283 , 939, (1997)

The RNase Protection Assay was used to examine the regulation of D2 and D4 dopamine receptor mRNAs in the cerebral cortex and neostriatum of nonhuman primates after chronic treatment with a wide spectrum of antipsychotic medications (chlorpromazine, clozapine...

Characterization of the discriminative stimulus produced by the dopamine antagonist tiapride.

J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 283 , 566, (1997)

The ability of tiapride, a selective D2/D3 dopamine receptor antagonist, to exert discriminative stimulus control of responding was investigated by training rats to discriminate this drug (30 mg/kg) from saline in a two-lever, food-reinforcement procedure. Ac...
