Abstract:

Compromised calcium homeostasis in the central nervous system (CNS) is implicated as a major contributor in the pathology of neurodegeneration. Dysregulation of Ca2+ homeostasis initiates downstream Ca2+–dependent events that lead to apoptotic and/or necrotic cell death. Increases in the intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) may be the result of Ca2+ influx from the extracellular environment or Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ stores such as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Influx from the extracellular environment is controlled predominantly by voltage gated calcium channels (

Abstract:

There is significant interest in the field of neuroscience to gain a better understanding of how neurons die in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. We have used the neuronal cell line NG115-401L with unique calcium signaling characteristics to test the hypothesis that improving calcium loading into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to increase ER calcium levels acts as a possible neuroprotective response. We approached this problem using both pharmacological and genetic approaches targeting the central mediator of calcium uptake in the ER localized sarco/endop

Abstract:

Malgré des avancées scientifiques significatives, la guérison du cancer reste une question complexe. Cela est dû non seulement à l'hétérogénéité des tumeurs, mais aussi à l'émergence d'une résistance à la plupart, sinon tous les traitements anticancéreux. Le cancer de la prostate (PCa), qui représente le deuxième cancer le plus fréquent chez les hommes, n'est pas différent: les thérapies conventionnelles, y compris l'hormonothérapie et la chimiothérapie, échouent face à des tumeurs réfractaires. Cette situation rend nécessaire l'élaboration de nouvelles stratégies pour lutter contre ce problèm

Abstract:

Research in drug development meets many challenges including lengthy, complex and costly procedures to identify novel pharmacotherapies. In our lab, we developed a method for fast screening of small molecules that interact with monoamine transports – dopamine and serotonin (DAT, SERT). These membrane proteins play important roles in brain neurotransmission responsible for cognition, motion and pleasure. Dysfunction in dopaminergic and serotonergic systems result in neurological disorders such as depression, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia and addiction. DAT and S

Abstract:

The sarcoplasmic reticulum is the intramuscular organelle responsible for the regulation of cytoplasmic calcium levels in muscle. This thesis investigates the effects of the cardioprotective drug, dexrazoxane, and its metabolite ADR-925 on doxorubicin induced calcium release from skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum. Doxorubicin is a widely used antineoplastic agent. One of the major side effects of doxorubicin usage is chronic cardiotoxicity. Doxorubicin is a potent activator of the calcium release mechanism from the SR. The interaction between doxorubicin and the calcium release channel has been

Abstract:

The current recommendations by the American Heart Association for health promotion are that all persons should partake in regular physical activity in order to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Regular physical exercise reduces blood pressure and is an important component of the management of hypertension. It is therefore important that patients with hypertension participate in habitual physical exercise. Many hypertensive patients who exercise will require anti-hypertensive medication. However, some antihypertensive agents cause fatigue during exercise. In order for patients to gain

BK channels are well studied targets of acute ethanol action. They play a prominent role in neuronal excitability and have been shown to play a significant role in behavioral ethanol tolerance in invertebrates. The focus of my work centers on the effects of alcohol on the BK channel and comprises studies that examine how subcellular location affects acute ethanol sensitivity and how duration of acute alcohol exposure impacts the development of rapid tolerance. My results also provide potential mechanisms which underlie acute sensitivity and rapid tolerance. I first explore BK channel sensitivi

Abstract:

Alcoholism is responsible for more than 6% of deaths internationally per annum. The development of acute tolerance to ethanol (EtOH) is a critical component of alcoholism. Previous studies identified large conductance calcium-activated potassium (BK) channels as potential EtOH targets in a variety of species and cells. In order to elucidate mechanisms underlying tolerance development, I used inside-out patch clamp techniques to measure EtOH induced changes in channel activity (measured as open probability) of hSlo, hSlo+β1, and hSlo+β4 channels exogenously expressed in HEK 293 cells.

Abstract:

The aim of the study was to examine the use of a repolarizing calcium dependent potassium current K(Ca) in neurons to describe the actions of a group of novel compounds with potential Class ifi actions on cardiac cells. This was accomplished by determination of the correlation between potency of the agents to block single channel K(Ca) and potency to prolong effective refractory period (ERP) in heart. If a positive correlation could be established then elucidation of mechanisms of drug actions on single channel K(Ca) could have utility in the description of drug actions on repolarizing

Abstract:

Invertebrate T-type calcium channels cloned from the great pond snail, Lymnaea Stagnalis (LCav3) possess highly sodium permeant ion channel currents by means of alternative splicing of exon 12. Exon 12 is located on the extracellular turret and the descending helix between segments 5 and segments 6, upstream of the ion selectivity filter in Domain II. Highly-sodium permeant T-type channels are generated without altering the selectivity filter locus, the primary regulatory domain known to govern ion selectivity for calcium and sodium channels.

The present research is focused on the topic of inflammation-drug interaction. Inflammation complicates many human diseases and conditions ranging from obesity to cancer. Therefore, the study of the effect of inflammation on drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics is pivotal. First, we tested the hypothesis that controlling inflammation using valsartan can restore the previously reported altered verapamil pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Such an effect is expected due to the anti-inflammatory properties of angiotensin II inhibition. Inflammation resulted in L-type calcium channel targ
