Optical studies on the specific interaction of dipyridamole with alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (orosomucoid).
1982
Abstract The interaction of dipyridamole with α1-acid glycoprotein was investigated by circular dichroism and ultraviolet absorbance measurements as well as by equilibrium dialysis experiments. Dipyridamole is bound to the protein via one site of extremely high affinity and by at least one site of considerably lower affinity. Only the association of dipyridamole with the high affinity site produces typical extrinsic Cotton effects. As a result of experimental observations it is concluded that the high affinity site is located in a hydrophobic protein structure of the glycoprotein.
Clozapine: Strong antiaggressive effects with minimal motor impairment
1992
Abstract Clinical studies have shown clozapine to be effective in the treatment of schizophrenia and associated with an extremely low incidence of extrapiramidal side effects. Diverse studies indicate that clozapine is an atypical neuroleptic with a preferential activity on the mesolimbic structures and a lower affinity for striatal D2 receptors than the classical antipsychotics. The purpose of this study was to assess the behavioral properties of clozapine, especially its effects on aggressive and motor behaviors. Individually housed male mice of the OF1 strain were exposed to anosmic “standard opponents” 30 minutes after the last drug administration. One category of animals received a sin…
