Certain naphthyridine compounds are histamine H3 receptor and serotonin transporter modulators useful in the treatment of histamine H3 receptor- and serotonin-mediated diseases.

Certain diaryl-substituted tetrahydroisoquinoline compounds are histamine H3 receptor and / or serotonin transporter modulators useful in the treatment of histamine H3 receptor- and / or serotonin-mediated diseases.

The invention relates to particular substituted heterocycle fused gamma-carbolines, their prodrugs, in free, solid, pharmaceutically acceptable salt and / or substantially pure form as described herein, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and methods of use in the treatment of diseases involving 5-HT2A receptor, serotonin transporter (SERT) and / or pathways involving dopamine D1 / D2 receptor signaling systems, and / or the treatment of residual symptoms.

The present invention relates to methods for treating or preventing a mitral valve disease in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a therapeutic agent. The therapeutic agent is capable of suppressing serotonin receptor signaling. The methods may be combined with a mitral valve surgery, serotonin transporter polymorphism genotyping, MV disease diagnosis, and / or an adjunct assay. Also provided are related medicaments, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for preparing the medicaments.

Therapeutic uses of 4-[2-(4-methylphenylsulfanyl)phenyl]piperidine and therapeutically acceptable salts thereof are provided.

The invention relates to particular substituted deuterated heterocycle fused gamma-carbolines, their prodrugs, in free, solid, pharmaceutically acceptable salt and / or substantially pure form as described herein, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and methods of use in the treatment of diseases involving 5-HT2A receptor, serotonin transporter (SERT) and / or pathways involving dopamine D1 / D2 receptor signaling systems, and / or the treatment of residual symptoms.

The invention provides a conjugate comprising (i) a selectivity agent which binds specifically to one or more neurotransmitter transporters selected from the group consisting of a dopamine transporter (DAT), serotonin transporter (SERT) or a norepinephrine transporter (NET) and (ii) a nucleic acid capable of specifically binding to a target molecule which is expressed in the same cell as the neurotransmitter transporter wherein said target molecule is α-synuclein or the mRNA encoding α-synuclein. The conjugates of the present invention are useful for the delivery of the nucleic acid to a cell of interest and thus, for the treatment of diseases which require a down-regulation of the protein encoded by the target nucleic acid as well as for the delivery of imaging agents to the cells for diagnostic purposes.

Compositions and methods are provided that are useful for diagnosing, treating, and monitoring alcohol dependence and disorders, susceptibility to alcohol dependence disorders, as well as drug related dependence and disorders. The methods include treating patients with an antagonist of the serotonin receptor 5-HT3 for such disorders, wherein the patient's serotonin transporter gene SLC6A4 is known to have particular genotypes.

The gene responsible for encoding SERT has a functional polymorphism at the 5′-regulatory promoter region, which results in two forms, long (L) and short (S). The LL-genotype is hypothesized to play a key role in the early onset of alcohol use. The present invention discloses the differences in treatment and diagnosis based on the L or short genotypes as well as on a single nucleotide polymorphism of the SERT gene, the 3′ UTR SNP rs 1042173. The present invention demonstrates the efficacy of using the drug ondansetron and similar drugs for treatment based on variations in the polymorphisms of the SERT gene as well as methods for diagnosing susceptibility to abuse of alcohol and other addiction-related diseases and disorders.

The invention provides a calamus amide compound as well as a preparation method and application of the calamus amide compound. The compound is (E)-methyl- 4-[3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)acrylamido]butanoate or a (Z)-methyl- 4-[3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)acrylamido]butanoate enol isomer, is separated and purified from roots and stems of acorus tatarinowii serving as an araceae acorus plant, has the effect of promoting the activity of a 5-serotonin transporter (SERT), can be used as a drug for treating depressive disorder, anxiety disorder, schizophrenia, obsession, neurodegenerative diseases, drug addiction or digestive system dysfunction and other diseases, and has an important drug development value.

Compositions and methods are provided that are useful for diagnosing, treating, and monitoring alcohol dependence and disorders, susceptibility to alcohol dependence disorders, as well as drug related dependence and disorders. The methods include treating patients with an antagonist of the serotonin receptor 5-HT3 for such disorders, wherein the patient's serotonin transporter gene SLC6A4 is known to have particular genotypes.
