The influence of heterocyclic compound-PAMAM dendrimer complexes on evoked electrical responses in slices of hypoxic brain tissue

Abstract: Abstract:We used complexes between a fourth generation polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer and one of two heterocyclic compounds -1-(6-hydroxyhexyl)-3-(5-phenyl-isoxazole-3-yl)-urea or 5-phenyl-isoxazole-3-carboxylic acid -to reduce oxygen consumption in transverse slices of the hippocampus taken from 4-week old male rats. In vitro electrophysiological experiments revealed that the inhibitory effect of the hypoxic state on the evoked responses was enhanced in the presence of the complexes. The data were analyzed … Show more

“…Previous studies have demonstrated that organic acids and their derivatives can regulate intestinal microflora, and this in turn affects the metabolism and immunity of the organism ( Eyduran et al, 2015 ; Zhang et al, 2018 ). Lipids play an important role in regulating synaptic plasticity, brain metabolism, energy supply, and receptor phenotypes ( Hussain et al, 2020 ), while heterocyclic compounds can improve brain function ( Potkin et al, 2014 ). Therefore, we conducted further analyses to understand the effects of abnormal metabolites on brain function.…”

“…Our findings revealed that the purine metabolic pathway was significantly enriched in patients with stroke. Adenosine deaminase is an enzyme involved in purine metabolism and is important for the maintenance of the immune system and for the development and functioning of the central nervous system ( Potkin et al, 2014 ). As normal purine metabolism is particularly important for normal brain function ( Garcia-Esparcia et al, 2015 ), the observation in this study that purine metabolism is significantly enriched in stroke patients is of critical importance in regard to our understanding of the pathogenesis of depression.…”
