This review describes a presentation at a recent symposium entitled "SUs in the treatment of T2DM a fresh look and new insights" on Wednesday September 18, 2019 at the 55th Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Barcelona, Spain. It examines the current role of sulfonylureas (SUs) in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and gives the author's personal perspective of how this therapeutic class has performed in both local and international guidelines. The place of SUs within current guidelines is highlighted, and a critical appraisal of the reasons for the differences between guidelines given. Finally, comparison of evidence-based guidelines and consensus reports is discussed.This article summarizes a presentation from a recent symposium entitled "SUs in the treatment of T2DM a fresh look and new insights" held on 18 September 2019 during the 55th Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Barcelona, Spain, and discusses whether sulfonylureas (SUs) are a good 'team player.' It examines the likely impact of using SUs early in the course of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), either alone or in combination with other agents, on glycemic outcomes and net side effects. The management of patients with T2DM and cardiovascular disease or chronic kidney disease is discussed, highlighting how glycemic control and cardio-renal effects are equally important in these patients and chronic exposure to hyperglycemia should be minimized. The role of SU-based combination therapy in this patient group is explored, demonstrating how later-generation SUs, either as monotherapy or combined with other antidiabetic drugs, help to ensure maximum benefits with minimal side effects. Evidence regarding the combination of SUs with a sodium-glucose transport protein 2 inhibitor shows that this might prove to be a good clinical option, especially in patients with renal impairment.Gap junctions are ubiquitous within the retina, but in general, it remains to be determined whether gap junction coupling between specific cell types is sufficiently strong to mediate functionally relevant coupling via electrical synapses. From ultrastructural, tracer coupling and immunolabeling studies, there is clear evidence for gap junctions between cone bipolar cells, but it is not known if these gap junctions function as electrical synapses. Here, using whole-cell voltage-clamp recording in rat (male and female) retinal slices, we investigated whether the gap junctions of bipolar cells make a measurable contribution to the membrane properties of these cells. We measured the input resistance (RN) of bipolar cells before and after applying meclofenamic acid (MFA) to block gap junctions. In the presence of MFA, RN of ON-cone bipolar cells displayed a clear increase, paralleled by block of the electrical coupling between these cells and AII amacrine cells in recordings of coupled cell pairs. For OFF-cone and rod bipolar cells, RN did not increase in the presence of MFA. The results for rod bipolar cells are consistent with the lack of gap junctions in these cells. However, for OFF-cone bipolar cells, our results suggest that the morphologically identified gap junctions between these cells do not support a junctional conductance that is sufficient to mediate effective electrical coupling. Instead, these junctions might play a role in chemical and/or metabolic coupling between subcellular compartments.The vacuolar protein sorting 35 (VPS35) gene located on chromosome 16 has recently emerged as a cause of late-onset familial Parkinson's disease (PD) (PARK17). The gene encodes a 796-residue protein nearly ubiquitously expressed in human tissues. The protein localizes on endosomes where it assembles with other peripheral membrane proteins to form the retromer complex. How VPS35 mutations induce dopaminergic neuron degeneration in humans is still unclear. Androgen Receptor pathway Antagonists Because the retromer complex recycles the receptors that mediate the transport of hydrolase to lysosome, it has been suggested that VPS35 mutations lead to impaired lysosomal and autophagy function. Recent studies also demonstrated that VPS35 and the retromer complex influence mitochondrial homeostasis, suggesting that VPS35 mutations elicit mitochondrial dysfunction. More recent studies have identified a key role of VPS35 in neurotransmission, whilst others reported a functional interaction between VPS35 and other genes associated with familial PD, including α-SYNUCLEIN-PARKIN-LRRK2. Here, we review the biological role of VPS35 protein, the VPS35 mutations identified in human PD patients, and the potential molecular mechanism by which VPS35 mutations can induce progressive neurodegeneration in PD.Dr. Gavril Pasternak, M.D., Ph.D. was an inspiration to many of his students, including myself. It was with great sadness that I learned about the passing of Dr. Gavril Pasternak in February 2019 after his brief battle with pancreatic cancer. I worked with Dr. Pasternak while I was an undergraduate chemistry student and as one of his technicians, collaborating with Dr. Charles Inturrisi and Dr. Eliot F. Hahn on opiate agonists and antagonists for opioid receptor subtypes. Dr. Pasternak inspired me and set me on the road to a career in pharmacology and encouraged me to pursue the fruitful paradigm of moving therapeutics from bench to bedside.Compound 511 (511) is specially developed for opioid addiction treatment based on the Ancient Chinese drug rehabilitation literature, and its composition has profound effects in the treatment of drug addiction in various clinical trials and animal experiments. The effect of 511 on the rewarding properties of morphine and craving responses and its potential mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we have applied a conditioned place preference (CPP) paradigm in mice to measure morphine-induced rewarding effects under the treatment of 511. Androgen Receptor pathway Antagonists Then we used the RNA sequencing strategy to screen its potential mechanisms. In our research, firstly, we found 511 could decrease CPP score, locomotor activity, self-administration, jumping behavior, weight loss, wet-dog shakes, and stereotyped behavior. Then the brain VTA region tissues were performed mRNA sequencing to detect potential mechanisms. We found the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB) were downregulated in morphine-induced CPP, whereas the decreased BDNF and TrkB were reversed after 511 treatment.
