Novel, selective k-opioid receptor agonists determined by virtual screening and their pharmacology
<p><span>Modulating the GPCR k-opioid receptor is a promising strategy for treating various human diseases, with agonists as potentially safer pain medications than conventional µ-opioid analgesics, as k-opioid receptor activation does not produce respiratory depression or risk of overdose.</span></p>
<p><span>applying structure-based virtual screening using 3D pharmacophore models based on the binding mode of the natural k-opioid agonist Salvinorin A, two compounds, SalA-VS-07 and SalA-VS-08 were discovered as novel, nonbasic, potent, and selective k-opioid agonists with a G protein-biased agonist profile. Two 3D pharmacophore-based virtual screening methods were performed in parallel and searched both natural product libraries and synthetic compound libraries. Compounds selected from the virtual screening campaign were experimentally evaluated in vitro for binding at the k-opioid receptor. Radioligand competitive binding and [35S]GTP</span><span>γ</span><span>S binding assays established SalA-VS-07 and SalA-VS-08 having affinity and potency at the k-opioid receptor in the nanomolar range, with SalA-VS-07 as a partial agonist and SalA-VS-08 as a full agonist at the k-opioid receptor, as well as their selectivity for the k-opioid receptor. In vitro studies on functional properties of Sal-VS-07 and Sal-VS-08 to recruit </span><span>β</span><span>-arrestin2 at the k-opioid receptor in the PathHunter </span><span>β</span><span>-arrestin2 recruitment assay demonstrated the lack of Sal-VS-07 and Sal-VS-08 to induced </span><span>β</span><span>-arrestin2 recruitment after receptor activation, in contrary to the high potency and efficacy of prototypical k-opioid agonists Salvinorin A and U69,593, profiling <a name="_Hlk204520480"></a>Sal-VS-07 and Sal-VS-08 as G protein-biased k-opioid agonists. </span></p>
<p><span>The dataset includes experimental in vitro pharmacological data on Sal-VS-07 and Sal-VS-08 as novel, selective k-opioid receptor agonists. </span></p>
Pharmacology of a k-opioid receptor ligand with a new chemotype
<p><span>Modulating the GPCR k-opioid receptor is a promising strategy for treating various human diseases, where receptor activation shows potential for treating pain without causing respiratory depression or risk of overdose of conventional µ-opioid analgesics, and receptor antagonism is associated with beneficial effects for the treatment of mood and psychiatric diseases, and drug addictive disorders.</span></p>
<p><span><span>Combining experimental pharmacology (binding and functional in vitro assays, and behavioral nociceptive models) and computational chemistry (molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations and dynamic pharmacophore (dynophore) generation, Compound A (4-[(2,3-dichlorophenyl)methylamino]-2-methylquinoline-8-carboxamide)) was identified as a novel k-opioid receptor antagonist, with a structurally distinct scaffold compared to the so far known k-opioid receptor ligands. Compound A selectively binds at the human k-opioid receptor and it shows k-opioid receptor antagonism in vitro and in vivo. The k-opioid receptor in vitro antagonism of Compound A was demonstrate based on the lack in inducing G protein activation upon ligand binding to the receptor expressed in CHO cells in the [35S]GTP</span><span>γ</span><span>S binding assay, in contrast to the high potency and stimulatory effect shown by the prototypical k-opioid agonist U69,593. Behavioral investigations in mice established the in vivo k-opioid receptor antagonist properties of Compound A after subcutaneous administration, based on its capability to effectively reverse the antinociceptive effects of the prototypical k-opioid agonist, U50,488, in two pain models, the writhing assay and the formalin test. Furthermore, Compound A shows favorable physicochemical features and a better capability to enter the CNS. </span></span></p>
<p><span>Compound A represents a valuable starting point for chemical optimization toward the development of innovative drugs targeting the k-opioid receptor as potential therapeutics for human conditions where the k-opioid system has a key function including mood, psychiatric and addictive disorders (antagonists), or pain conditions (agonists).</span></p>
<p><span>The dataset includes experimental in vitro and in vivo pharmacological data on Compound A, as a k-opioid receptor ligand with a new chemotype. </span></p>

Glass transition in colloidal monolayers controlled by light-induced caging
<h2>Glass transition in colloidal monolayers controlled by light-induced caging</h2>
<p>We theoretically investigate the glass-transition problem for a quasi-two-dimensional colloidal dense suspension modulated by a one-dimensional periodic external potential as imposed by interfering laser beams. Relying on a mode-coupling approach, we examine the nonequilibrium state diagram for hard disks as a function of the density and the period of the modulation for various potential strengths. The competition between the local packing and the distortion of the cages induced by the potential leads to a striking nonmonotonic behavior of the glass-transition line which allows melting of a glass state merely by changing the external fields. <br>In particular, we find regions in the non-equilibrium state diagram where a moderate periodic modulation stabilizes the liquid state. </p>

Mode-coupling theory of the glass transition for a liquid in a periodic potential
<h2>Mode-coupling theory of the glass transition for a liquid in a periodic potential</h2>
<p>We derive a microscopic theory for the structural dynamics in the vicinity of the glass transition for a liquid exposed to a one-dimensional periodic potential. The periodic potential breaks translational invariance, in particular, the density exhibits a periodic modulation. Using techniques familiar from solid-state theory, we define generalized intermediate scattering functions from fluctuating densities in wave-vector space. Exact equations of motion are derived within the Mori-Zwanzig projection operator formalism reflecting the residual lattice symmetries. Due to the lack of rotational symmetry it is necessary to split the currents into components parallel and perpendicular to the modulation. We provide a closure of the equations in terms of a mode-coupling approximation for the force kernel. The theory reflects the usual analytic properties of correlation functions and encodes all phenomena known for mode-coupling theories. We prove that the theory reduces to the conventional mode-coupling theory in the case of vanishing amplitude of the modulation.</p>

Run-and-Tumble Particles Learning Chemotaxis
<pre><span>Through evolution, bacteria have developed the ability to perform chemotactic motion in order to find nourishment.</span></pre>
<pre><span>By adopting a machine learning approach, we aim to understand how this behavior arises.</span></pre>
<pre><span>We consider run-and-tumble agents able to tune the instantaneous probability of switching between the run and the tumble phase.</span></pre>
<pre><span>When such agents are navigating in an environment characterized by a concentration field pointing towards a circular target, we investigate how a chemotactic strategy may be learned starting from unbiased run-and-tumble dynamics.</span></pre>
<pre><span>Target detection is allowed only during the tumble phase, which qualifies our agents as truly intermittent searchers.</span></pre>
<pre><span>We compare the learning performances of agents that sense only the instantaneous concentration with those of two types of agents both having a short-term memory that allows them to perform temporal comparisons.</span></pre>
<pre><span>While all types of learning agents develop successful target-search policies, we demonstrate that those achieved by agents endowed with temporal comparison abilities are significantly more efficient, particularly when the initial distance from the target is large.</span></pre>
<pre><span>Finally, we also show that when an additional length scale is imposed, for example by fixing the initial distance to the target, the learning agents can leverage this information to further improve their efficiency in locating the target.</span></pre>
