Rational
A growing body of evidence illustrates that 5-HT3 receptor antagonist drugs may be of benefit in the treatment of negative symptoms in schizophrenia.Objective
The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and tolerability of tropisetron add-on to risperidone on negative symptoms in patients with chronic stable schizophrenia.Methods
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled 8-week trial, 40 patients with chronic schizophrenia who were stabilized on risperidone were randomized into tropisetron or placebo add-on groups. Psychotic symptoms were measured using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) every 2 weeks. Furthermore, extrapyramidal and depressive symptoms as well as side effects were assessed. The primary outcome measure was the difference in change from baseline of negative subscale scores between the two groups at week 8.Results
Tropisetron resulted in greater improvement of the total PANSS scores [F(1.860,70.699)?=?37.366, p?<?0.001] as well as negative scores [F(2.439,92.675)?=?16.623, p?<?0.001] and general psychopathology [F(1.767,67.158)?=?4.602, p?=?0.017], but not positive subscale scores [F(1.348, 51.218)?=?0.048, p?=?0.893] compared to placebo. In a multiple regression analysis controlling for positive, extrapyramidal, and depressive symptoms, treatment group (standardized β?=??0.640) significantly predicted changes in primary negative symptoms. The side effect profile did not differ significantly between the two groups.Conclusion
Tropisetron add-on to risperidone improves the primary negative symptoms of patients with chronic stable schizophrenia. 相似文献2.

Background
Despite the rich literature on GERD, its cause and reason for increased prevalence remain obscure. Currently accepted mechanisms leave many questions unanswered. Nitrite chemistry at the GEJ is well described for carcinogenesis. Recent epidemiological and animal data have linked nitrates to GERD. “Nitrate reductase” of oral bacteria converts nitrates to nitrites. We hypothesized that nitrate reductase activity is higher in patients with erosive GERD, delivering more nitrite at the gastroesophageal-junction for a given nitrate intake. 相似文献5.

Rationale
Several recent studies have focused on glutamate modulating agents for symptoms relief in schizophrenia, especially negative symptoms which are resistant to conventional therapies.Objectives
We aimed to assess the efficacy and tolerability of riluzole, an anti-glutamate agent with neuroprotective properties, as an adjunct to risperidone in improving negative symptoms of schizophrenia.Methods
In this randomized double-blind placebo-controlled parallel-group study, 50 patients with chronic schizophrenia and a score of ≥20 on the negative subscale of positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) were enrolled in the active phase of their illness. Participants were equally randomized to receive riluzole (100 mg/day) or placebo in addition to risperidone (up to 6 mg/day) for 8 weeks. Participants were rated by PANSS every 2 weeks. The primary outcome of this study was the difference in the decrease of PANSS negative subscale score from baseline to the study endpoint between the two groups.Results
By the study endpoint, riluzole-treated patients showed significantly greater improvement in the negative symptoms (P?<?0.001) as well as the PANSS total and general psychopathology subscale scores (P?=?0.001 and P?<?0.001; respectively) compared to the placebo group. Treatment group was the only significant predictor of changes in negative symptom in this trial (β?=??0.56, P?<?0.001). No significant difference was observed between two groups in the frequency of side effects.Conclusion
These preliminary findings suggest that riluzole may be a safe and effective medication for the treatment of negative symptoms in patients with chronic schizophrenia. Further research and replication of study findings is warranted.Clinical trial registry name and registration number

Although it is clear that amphetamine-induced dopamine (DA) release mediated by the dopamine transporter (DAT) is integral to the behavioral actions of this psychostimulant, the mechanism of this release is not clear. In this study, we explored the requirement for intracellular Ca(2+) in amphetamine-induced DA efflux and currents mediated by the human DAT. The patch-clamp technique in the whole-cell configuration was used on Na(+) and DA-preloaded human embryonic kidney 293 cells stably transfected with the human DAT (hDAT cells). Chelation of intracellular Ca(2+) by inclusion of 50 microM BAPTA in the whole-cell pipette reduced the voltage-dependent amphetamine-induced hDAT current, with the greatest effect seen at positive voltages. Likewise, 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA) reduced amphetamine-induced DA efflux as measured by amperometry. Furthermore, preincubation of the cells with 50 microM BAPTA acetoxy methyl ester (AM) or thapsigargin also blocked amphetamine-induced release of preloaded N-methyl-4-[(3)H]phenylpyridinium from superfused hDAT cells. BAPTA-AM also reduced DA release from striatal synaptosomes. Amphetamine also led to an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) that was blocked by prior treatment with 5 microM thapsigargin or 10 microM cocaine. These studies demonstrate that amphetamine-induced DAT-mediated currents and substrate efflux require internal Ca(2+) and that amphetamine can stimulate dopamine efflux by regulating cytoplasmic Ca(2+) levels through its interaction with DAT. 相似文献

Methamphetamine‐induced enhancement of hippocampal long‐term potentiation is modulated by NMDA and GABA receptors in the shell–accumbens 下载免费PDF全文
Soomaayeh Heysieattalab Nasser Naghdi Narges Hosseinmardi Mohammad‐Reza Zarrindast Abbas Haghparast Habibeh Khoshbouei 《Synapse (New York, N.Y.)》2016,70(8):325-335
Addictive drugs modulate synaptic transmission in the meso‐corticolimbic system by hijacking normal adaptive forms of experience‐dependent synaptic plasticity. Psychostimulants such as METH have been shown to affect hippocampal synaptic plasticity, albeit with a less understood synaptic mechanism. METH is one of the most addictive drugs that elicit long‐term alterations in the synaptic plasticity in brain areas involved in reinforcement learning and reward processing. Dopamine transporter (DAT) is one of the main targets of METH. As a substrate for DAT, METH decreases dopamine uptake and increases dopamine efflux via the transporter in the target brain regions such as nucleus accumbens (NAc) and hippocampus. Due to cross talk between NAc and hippocampus, stimulation of NAc has been shown to alter hippocampal plasticity. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that manipulation of glutamatergic and GABA‐ergic systems in the shell‐NAc modulates METH‐induced enhancement of long term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus. Rats treated with METH (four injections of 5 mg/kg) exhibited enhanced LTP as compared to saline‐treated animals. Intra‐NAc infusion of muscimol (GABA receptor agonist) decreased METH‐induced enhancement of dentate gyrus (DG)‐LTP, while infusion of AP5 (NMDA receptor antagonist) prevented METH‐induced enhancement of LTP. These data support the interpretation that reducing NAc activity can ameliorate METH‐induced hippocampal LTP through a hippocampus‐NAc‐VTA circuit loop.

Severe allergic reactions during specific immunotherapy may occur in the treatment of hymenoptera sting allergy. The objective of the present study was to examine the characteristics of allergic reactions during specific immunotherapy in patients with allergy towards hymenoptera venom in the Iranian population. A prospective study was performed using the clinical reports of 27 patients with anaphylaxis to bee venom (Apis melifera, Geupes vespula and Geupes Polites). Ten patients treated with Cluster protocol during 2002 and 2006 After diagnosis of hymenoptera sting allergy according to history and intradermal tests, the patient were treated with Cluster protocol immunotherapy. The protocol lasted 6 weeks with an increase in the concentration of venom from 0.01 microg/ml to 100 microg/ml. None of the patient received premedication. All patients with hymenoptera venom allergy received 120 injections. Anaphylactic reactions were classified according to the Mueller-classification. The frequencies of systemic reactions during Cluster protocol were 8.33% and 5% for yellow jacket and honey bee venom respectively. No patient experienced severe systemic reaction. Cluster protocol for hymenoptera immunotherapy is a reliable method for the treatment of anaphylactic reactions to bee venom. It is safe with low cost and do not need hospitalization. 相似文献

The primary immunodeficiency (PI) disorders are abnormalities in development and maturation of the immune system. Individuals with PI disease may experience frequent infections, which limit their abilities to exhibit physical and psychological well-being secondary to their illness. In this survey we compared health-related quality of life of primary immune deficient patients with healthy children. The case-control study was designed for patients with PI disease who were referred to Children Medical Center in 2004-2005. Demographic information was taken and Pediatric Quality Of Life (PEDQOL) questionnaire were filled for 50 PI patients and 100 healthy children. The mean age in PI patients was 12.62+/- 3.65 (range from 8 to 18) years and in the control group was 11.04+/- 3.3 years. In PI patients 68% were male and 32% female .Most patients with PI disease had a diagnosis of common variable immunodeficiency (54%) or X-linked agammaglobulinemia (24%). Patients with PI disease had great limitations in physical functioning and psychological well-being (p<0.001 and p<0.001 respectively) compared with children without a chronic health condition. Patients had lower PEDQOL scores in all age groups compared with normal sample (p<0.001). Long duration of disease significantly correlated with low psychological score. (r =-3.23. P= 0.03) Children with PI disease experience poorer health related quality of life than healthy children, indicating more attention should be paid to early diagnosis and treatment of PI disease, as well as more attention to their social limitation. PI patients may need psychological consultation for better coping with their illness. 相似文献
