The effect of brain serotonin deficit (TPH2-KO) on the expression and activity of liver cytochrome P450 enzymes in aging male Dark Agouti rats
CONCLUSIONS: Rat liver cytochrome P450 functions deteriorate with age, which may impair drug metabolism. The TPH2 knockout, which deprives brain serotonin, affects cytochrome P450 expression and activity differently in mature and senescent male rats.PMID:37848703 | DOI:10.1007/s43440-023-00540-x (Source: Pharmacological Reports)

Development and characterization of a temozolomide-loaded nanoemulsion and the effect of ferrocene pre and co-treatments in glioblastoma cell models
CONCLUSIONS: Altogether, our results indicate that using nanoemulsion containing temozolomide in combination with ferrocene is an effective approach to improve glioblastoma therapy outcomes.PMID:37837521 | DOI:10.1007/s43440-023-00537-6 (Source: Pharmacological Reports)

Anticonvulsant effects of isopimpinellin and its interactions with classic antiseizure medications and borneol in the mouse tonic-clonic seizure model: an isobolographic transformation
CONCLUSIONS: The most intriguing interaction was that for ISOP + VPA, for which the addition of BOR evoked a transition from antagonism to synergy in the mouse MES model.PMID:37821793 | DOI:10.1007/s43440-023-00532-x (Source: Pharmacological Reports)

Effects of N-acetylcysteine and acetyl-L-carnitine on acute PTZ-induced seizures in larval and adult zebrafish
CONCLUSION: Consequently, we conclude that, under the conditions employed in this study, NAC and ALC do not exhibit any significant effects on acute seizures in zebrafish.PMID:37814098 | DOI:10.1007/s43440-023-00536-7 (Source: Pharmacological Reports)

Insulin in combination with pioglitazone prevents advanced cachexia in 256-Walker tumor-bearing rats: effect is greater than treatment alone and is associated with improved insulin sensitivity
CONCLUSIONS: The combined treatment with INS 18 U/kg + PIO 5 mg/kg was more effective in preventing advanced cachexia in TB rats than each treatment alone, emerging as the best approach, considering the lower dosage and higher efficacy. This combination completely preserved adipose mass and markedly reduced weight loss through a synergistic mechanism linked to improved insulin sensitivity. These findings provide new insights into the importance of drug combinations in effectively combating fat loss in advanced cachexia.PMID:37804392 | DOI:10.1007/s43440-023-00533-w (Source: Pharmacological Reports)

Cytotoxic pathways activated by multifunctional thiosemicarbazones targeting sigma-2 receptors in breast and lung carcinoma cells
CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that FA4 is a promising compound that deserves to be further studied for lung and breast cancer treatment. However, the other multifunctional TSCs also hold promise for the development of therapies towards a personalized medicine approach. Indeed, the presence of the sigma-2 receptor-targeting moiety would lead to a more specific tumor delivery embracing the characteristics of individual tumor types.PMID:37796435 | DOI:10.1007/s43440-023-00531-y (Source: Pharmacological Reports)
