maternal nicotine exposure-induced collagen pulmonary changes
nicotine is an alkaloid by high level of addictive property that can quickly assimilate from smoker’s lung. it passes from the placenta and gathers in the developing fetus. our previous study showed that collagen type iv plays a critical role in basement membrane of different embryonic organs. in this study the effect of maternal nicotine was evaluated by collagen iv changes in lung of mice off...
متن کاملAcute nicotine treatment accelerates photochemically induced platelet aggregation in cerebral arterioles of mice: an in vivo study
When tobacco is smoked, chewed or snuffed, nicotine is absorbed by the lungs or mucous membrane and quickly moved into the bloodstream, where it is circulated throughout the brain. In fact nicotine is highly dangerous to be consumed in any form. The present study was conducted to know the adverse effects of nicotine on the platelet aggregation in cerebral microvessels of mice. Male mice of aver...

متن کاملRetinal Changes in an ATP-Induced Model of Retinal Degeneration
In rodents and felines, intravitreal administration of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) has been shown to induce photoreceptor death providing a tractable model of retinal degeneration in these species. This study investigated the long term effects of photoreceptor loss in an ATP induced feline model of retinal degeneration. Six normal sighted felines were unilaterally blinded using intravitreal AT...
متن کاملDiabetes-induced dysfunction of retinal Müller cells.
PURPOSE This study tested the hypothesis that the function of the glutamate transporter in retinal Müller cells is compromised early in the course of diabetes by a mechanism involving oxidation. Dysfunction of this transporter, which removes glutamate from the extracellular space, may play a critical role in the disruption of glutamate homeostasis that occurs in the diabetic retina. Because glu...
