A novel class of "GABAergic" agents: 1-aryl-3-(aminoalkylidene)oxindoles.

Only registered users can translate articles

Antagonism of mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) induced convulsions, reflecting a GABAergic mechanism, was observed in a series of 1-aryl-3-(aminoalkylidene)oxindoles. Optimal MPA antagonism was associated with 3-halo, 3-alkyl, and/or 4-alkoxy substituents in the pendant aryl ring and with

Neuroprotection Against MPP+-Induced Cytotoxicity Through the Activation of PI3-K/Akt/GSK3β/MEF2D Signaling Pathway by Rhynchophylline, the Major Tetracyclic Oxindole Alkaloid Isolated From Uncaria rhynchophylla.

Accumulated soluble amyloid β (Aβ)-induced aberrant neuronal network activity has been recognized as a key causative factor leading to cognitive deficits which are the most outstanding characteristic of Alzheimer's disease (AD). As an important structure associated with learning and memory, the

Tryptophan metabolism and brain function: focus on kynurenine and other indole metabolites.

Only registered users can translate articles

The synthesis of NAD (or NADP) from tryptophan involves a series of enzymes and the formation of a number of intermediates which are collectively called 'kynurenines.' In the late 1970s and early 1980s, it became clear that intraventricular administration of several 'kynurenines' could cause
