Neuropsychopharmacology: Changing the Face of Psychotropic Drug Discovery
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 November 2014
Abstract
This review speculates on the changes currently taking place in psychopharmacology that will alter the course of psychotropic drug discovery and application in the coming millennium. The importance of endocoids as causative agents in central nervous system diseases; the role of neuropeptides and “trace” amine transmitters; the impact of imaging methods in elucidating the mechanism of action of psychotropic drugs; gene therapy; and the new role of psychoneuroimmunology in drug discovery are predicted to have a major impact in both the research and development of new psychotropic drugs in the twenty-first century.
