The immunosuppressive agent leflunomide has been used in the treatment of over 300,000 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Its active metabolite, teriflunomide (Ter), directly inhibits dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), an enzyme involved in nucleoside synthesis. We report that Ter not only shows

Spontaneous neuronal activity in the solitary tract nucleus was recorded extracellularly in a brain slice preparation during bath-application of 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 receptor-selective agonists and antagonists. The 5-HT1A/5-HT1B agonist 5-carboxamidotryptamine depressed activity in 20 of 25 neurons studied. The remaining

alpha-Methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine (alpha-Me-5-HT; 2) and 2-methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine (2-Me-5-HT; 3) are considered to be 5-HT2-selective and 5-HT3-selective agents, respectively. These agents were synthesized and examined at serotonin (5-HT) binding sites because there is relatively little documentation as to their selectivity and because they
