Tetrodotoxin (TTX) as a Therapeutic Agent for Pain
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a potent neurotoxin that blocks voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs). VGSCs play a critical role in neuronal function under both physiological and pathological conditions. TTX has been extensively used to functionally characterize VGSCs, which can be classified as TTX-sensitive or TTX-resistant channels according to their sensitivity to this toxin. Alterations in the expr...
متن کاملStudy on biological performance of recombinant GnRH as a spawning – inducing agent for goldfish (Carassius auratus)
Different hormones are used to induce final sexual maturation in fish breeders and one of these hormones is different analogue of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) with different trade names. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biological activity of recombinant GnRH produced in the laboratory of Sari Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources University on the induction and synchron...
متن کاملProduction, quality control and biological evaluation of 153Sm-TTHMP as a possible bone palliation agent
Introduction: Various bone palliative therapeutic agents have been developed and widely used for bone metastasis such as 153Sm-EDTMP. In this study, production, quality control and biodistribution studies of a newly developed therapeutic compound have been presented followed by imaging studies in wild-type rodents. Methods: 153Sm-TTHMP was prepared starting from 153<...
متن کاملRadioiodine as a possible triggering agent for pemphigus foliaceus
Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) is an autoimmune blistering disease presenting in endemic and sporadic forms. The typical presentation is recurrent shallow erosions in a seborrheic distribution. PF has also been found in association with autoimmune diseases such as autoimmune thyroid disease (e.g. toxic nodular goiter and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis). In some patients, PF appears to be triggered by radioi...
متن کاملProduction, Quality Control and Biological Evaluation of 166Ho-PDTMP as a Possible Bone Palliation Agent
Objective(s):In this study, 166Ho-1,2-propylene di-amino tetra(methy1enephosphonicAcid) (166Ho-PDTMP) complex was prepared as a bone palliation agent. Materials and Methods:The complex was successfully prepared using an in-house synthesized EDTMP ligand and 166HoCl3. Ho-166 chloride was obtained by thermal neutron irradiation (1 × 1013 n.cm-2.s-1) of natural Ho(NO3)3 samples followed by radio...
