Involvement of thyrotropin in photoperiodic signal transduction in mice.
Local thyroid hormone catabolism within the mediobasal hypothalamus (MBH) by thyroid hormone-activating (DIO2) and -inactivating (DIO3) enzymes regulates seasonal reproduction in birds and mammals. Recent functional genomics analysis in birds has shown that long days induce thyroid-stimulating hormone production in the pars tuberalis (PT) of the pituitary gland, which triggers DIO2 expression i...
متن کاملAttenuation of morphine tolerance and dependence by thymoquinone in mice
Objectives: Dependence and tolerance are major restricting factors in the clinical use of opioid analgesics. In the present study, the effects of thymoquinone, the major constituent of Nigella sativa seeds, on morphine dependence and tolerance were investigated in mice. Materials and Methods: Male adult NMRI mice were made tolerant and dependent by repeated injections of morphine (50, 50, and 7...
متن کاملEffects of Caffeine on Morphine Tolerance and Analgesia in Mice
Caffeine, an adenosine A1, A2A, and A2B receptor antagonist, is frequently used as an adjuvant analgesic in combination with non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or opioids. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of caffeine on preventing the development of morphine tolerance and analgesia in mice. In this study, different groups of mice recei...
متن کاملInvolvement of nitric oxide within the rat central nucleus of amygdala in morphine tolerance
The role of glutamate receptor within the nucleus accumbens in morphine tolerance has been postulated. Previous studies have reported that glutamate receptors exert their effects in part through the release of nitric oxide (NO). In the present study the effects of intra-accumbal injections of L-arginine (0.3, 1, and 3 ?g/rat), the NO precursor and L-NAME (0.3, 1, and 3 ?g/rat), the NOS inhibito...
متن کاملEvaluation of nitric oxide involvement in effect of lead on dependency to morphine in mice
In the present study, interactions between lead exposure with nitric oxide precursor (L-arginine) or nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor (L-NAME) on naloxone-induced jumping and diarrhea in morphine-dependent mice were examined. Chronic lead acetate (0.05%) exposure altered naloxone-induced jumping and diarrhea in mice. Jumping was decreased after 7 days and was unchanged 14 and 28 days after...
