متن کاملCapsazepine, a Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid Type 1 (TRPV1) Antagonist, Attenuates Antinociceptive Effect of CB1 Receptor agonist, WIN55,212-2, in the Rat Nucleus Cuneiformis
Introduction: Nucleus cuneiformis (NCF), as part of descending pain inhibitory system, cooperates with periaqueductal gray (PAG) and rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM) in supraspinal modulation of pain. Cannabinoids have analgesic effects in the PAG, RVM and NCF. The transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1(TRPV1) can be activated by anandamide and WIN55,212-2 as a cannabinoid receptor ago...

متن کاملP 9: Neuoprotective Effect of Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor Antagonists Rimonabant and AM251 on Hypoxic Mouse Model of Brain Oxidative Stress
Introduction: The hypoxic state, in which experimental animals were subjected to an atmosphere of 5% O2 and %95 N2, has been used to screen agents for possible cerebral protection by measuring their ability to prolong survival time in mice exposed to hypoxia. Researchers showed that rimonabant and AM251 allosteric potentiate all but the β1 subunit containing GABAA receptors at nM...
