Loss of synapses or alteration of synaptic activity is associated with cognitive impairment observed in a number of psychiatric and neurological disorders, such as schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease. Therefore successful...

N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are ionotropic glutamate receptors that play an important role in synaptic plasticity and learning and memory formation. Malfunctioning of NMDARs, in particular the reduction in NMDAR activity,...

SAR around a known molecule with dual 5-HT(1D) antagonist and 5-HT(transporter) inhibitory activity has led to the discovery of molecules with improved dual activity and reduced cross-reactivity toward other aminergic...

A novel series of tertiary alcohol containing 2-substituted benzyl morpholines have been discovered as potent and selective inhibitors of the norepinephrine transporter. Efficient synthetic routes were developed featuring a highly...

A novel series of 1-aryl-3,4-dihydro-1H-quinolin-2-ones have been discovered as potent and selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. Efficient synthetic routes have been developed which allow for the multi-gram preparation of both final...

Novel arylthiomethyl morpholines are potent selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (NERIs) and dual serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SRI/NERIs). The target compounds were prepared using a stereochemically versatile synthesis featuring an aldol condensation...

A series of compounds combining the naphthylpiperazine and thienopyran scaffolds has been prepared and evaluated for 5-HT reuptake inhibition with 5-HT1D antagonist activity. The design of these compounds has been...
