ENDOGENOUS RELEASE OF OPIATES BY REPETITIVE ELECTRICAL FIELD STIMULATION IN THE GUINEA-PIG AND RAT ILEAL LONGITUDINAL MUSCLE
The effect of repetitive electrical field stimulation and the response of the guinea-pig and rat ileal longitudinal muscle to single pulse stimulations was examined. Single pulse field stimulation produced twitch contraction which was inhibited by repetitive field stimulation (10 Hz, 40V, 0.5 msec for 5 m). This inhibition was largely, though never completely, reversed by naloxone. Contrac...
متن کاملThe role of acetylcholine muscarinic receptors in the rat basolateral amygdala on morphine-induced place preference
Some studies have shown that acetylcholine muscarinic receptors involved in the opiate reward. In the present study, the effect of intra-basolateral amygdale (BLA) acetylcholine muscarinic like receptor agonist (physostigmine) and antagonist (atropine) on the acquisition of morphine-induced place preference has been investigated in male Wistar rats. For this purpose, two 22 gauges guide cannula...
متن کاملThe Effect of Nonpolar Fraction of Carum Copticum Essence on Acetylcholine Induced Contraction in the Ileum of Isolated Rats
Background and Aims: Our previous study has demonstrated that essence of Carum copticum reduces contraction activity of ileum in rat. The present study was designed to find out the effects of nonpolar fraction of Carum copticum essence (NFCCE) on mechanical activity of the isolated ileum in rat. Materials and Methods: For evaluation of spasmolythic property of fraction, different doses of the ...

متن کاملLovastatin Incubation Improves Acetylcholine-Induced Relaxation in Isolated Aortic Rings of Diabetic Rat
To evaluate the acute effect of lovastatin on diabetic endothelial dysfunction, we examined this effect on the aortic rings of streptozotocin-diabetic rats. The endothelial function was assessed in aortic rings isolated from diabetic rats, 12 weeks after treatment with streptozotocin (45 mg/kg, i.p.). The concentration-response curve to acetylcholine (Ach) in the aortic rings precontracted with...
متن کاملThe Relaxant Effect of Carvacrol on Acetylcholine-induced Contraction in Isolated Rat's Ileum
Background and Aims: The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of carvacrol were reported. The aim of the current study was an investigation the relaxant effects of carvacrol on acetylcholine-induced contraction in isolated rat's ileum. Materials and Methods: In this study, the tissues separated from ileum were fixed on the organ bath containing Tyrode's solution. The amplitude of contra...
