Stimulants exert their effects through a number of different pharmacological mechanisms, the most prominent of which include facilitation of norepinephrine ( noradrenaline ) and / or dopamine activity ( e. g., via monoamine transporter inhibition or reversal ), adenosine receptor antagonism, and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonism.

MPH possesses structural similarities to amphetamine, and, though it is less potent, its pharmacological effects are even more closely related to those of cocaine.

With the proviso that theophylline and theobromine cross the blood brain barrier very poorly ( thus a low CNS effects on the heart ), the pharmacological effects of adenosine may therefore be blunted in individuals who are taking large quantities of methylxanthines ( e. g., caffeine, found in coffee, or theophylline in tea, or theobromine, as found in chocolate ).

Placebo effects after verbal suggestion for mild pain can be robust and still exist after being repeated ten times even if they have no actual pharmacological pain killing action.

Its pharmacological effects are due to binding to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors.

It is a butyrophenone derivative and has pharmacological effects similar to the phenothiazines.

A variety of pharmacological effects have been observed in rodents, but have not been demonstrated clinically in humans, including:

Its main pharmacological effects are the enhancement of the effects of GABA at the GABA < sub > A </ sub > receptor.

Although the mechanism of action of the sympathomimetic appetite suppressants in the treatment of obesity is not fully known, these medications have pharmacological effects similar to those of amphetamines.

The pharmacological effects are rather undisputed with hundreds of peer reviewed papers in support but formal clinical studies have not been completed.

They often have pharmacological effects and are used as medications, as recreational drugs, or in entheogenic rituals.

Depressants exert their effects through a number of different pharmacological mechanisms, the most prominent of which include facilitation of GABA or opioid activity, and inhibition of glutamatergic or catecholaminergic activity.

Plant pharmacological studies have suggested that Calendula extracts have anti-viral, anti-genotoxic, and anti-inflammatory properties in vitro.

Experiments in cell cultures of varied types and isolated subcellular systems in vitro imply many mechanisms in the pharmacological activity of resveratrol.

For example, while fatty acid amide hydrolase ( FAAH ) can hydrolyze the endocannabinoids 2-arachidonoylglycerol ( 2-AG ) and anandamide at comparable rates in vitro, genetic or pharmacological disruption of FAAH elevates anandamide but not 2-AG, suggesting that 2-AG is not an endogenous, in vivo substrate for FAAH.

While most of the traditional uses are clinically untested and of unknown efficacy, Prunella vulgaris has been shown to have pharmacological effects in vitro and in some animal models as an antioxidant, immune stimulant, viral replication inhibitor and an anti-inflammatory agent.

Daubert and Schuller's evidence, however, was based on in vitro and in vivo animal studies, pharmacological studies, and reanalysis of other published studies, and these methodologies had not yet gained acceptance within the general scientific community.

It was first used on psychiatric patients because of its powerful calming effect ; at the time it was regarded as a non-permanent " pharmacological lobotomy ".

In clinical settings, morphine exerts its principal pharmacological effect on the central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract.

The basic science of pharmacology, with added focus on the application of pharmacological principles and methods in the real world

After the 1960s, the field of psychiatry shifted to incorporate the indications for and efficacy of pharmacological treatments, and began to focus on the use and toxicities of these medications.

Current pharmacological treatment centers on managing problem behaviors and psychiatric symptoms associated with FXS.

Research on the genome also raises the possibility of genetically engineering silkworms to produce proteins, including pharmacological drugs, in the place of silk proteins.

Another type of pharmacological selectivity that is unique to allosteric modulators is based on co-operativity.

The pharmacological treatment for delirium depends on its cause.

Because MEP amplitude is correlated with motor excitability, they offer a quantitative way to test the role of various types of intervention on the motor system ( pharmacological, behavioral, lesion ...) TMS-induced MEPs may thus serve as a index of covert motor preparation or facilitation, e. g., induced by the mirror neuron system when seeing someone's else actions.

It should also be noted that in respect of their influence on insulin pharmacokinetics, moderate concentrations of certain insulin antibodies may, in fact, be of positive advantage to all diabetics without endogenous insulin secretion ( e. g. people with type 1 diabetes ) because insulin binding antibodies effectively increase the insulin's clearance rate and distribution space and therefore helps to prolong its pharmacological and biological half lives.

The interdisciplinary team, which often includes a social worker or a counselor and a chaplain, can play a role in helping the patient and family cope globally with these symptoms, rather than depending on the medical / pharmacological interventions alone.

* Simons SS Jr. What goes on behind closed doors: physiological versus pharmacological steroid hormone actions.

A New Boke on the Natures and Properties of all Wines, also published in 1568, had pharmacological intent behind it, as also the included Treatise of Triacle.

Based on this evidence, pharmacological agents en masse have been designed and synthesized, yet have met with little success.

This might have translated later ( possibly after 14th century ) into a generalized meaning of analysis e. g. of important / principle component of a target inside a mixture such as active ingredient of a drug inside the inert excipients in a pharmacological formulation which originally used to be measured by its actual action on an organism ( e. g. lethal dose or inhibitory dose ).

can mostly be computed directly based on the molecule's structure, pharmacological descriptors can be derived only indirectly using involved multivariate statistics or experimental ( screening, bioassay ) results.

This is because many nitrogenous organic molecules which have a pharmacological effect on humans taste bitter.

The choice of agent depends largely on specific pharmacological effects of individual agents with respect to the condition.
