Spasmolytic Activity of Piper Nigrum Fruit Aqueous Extract on Rat Non-Pregnant Uterus
Black pepper ( Piper nigrum ) from Piperaceae and its main ingredient (piperine) reduces gastric emptying in rats. In Iranian traditional medicine, black pepper is used to relief the menorrhalgia in women. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of black pepper fruit aqueous extract on non-pregnant rat uterus contractions and the mechanism(s) of its action. To prepare the extract, b...
متن کاملDownregulation of LH receptor mRNA in the rat uterus.
We detected luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR) mRNA in the immature rat uterus by northern blotting and downregulation of this receptor mRNA after pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG)-human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) treatment. After administration of hCG, the mRNA levels in the rat uterus declined to an extremely low level from Days 1 to 3 and then rebounded and reached higher than pretre...
متن کاملThe Effects of Female Sexual Hormones on the Expression of Aquaporin 5 in the Late-Pregnant Rat Uterus
Thirteen mammalian aquaporin (AQP) water channels are known, and few of them play a role in the mammalian reproductive system. In our earlier study, the predominance of AQP5 in the late-pregnant rat uterus was proven. Our current aim was to investigate the effect of estrogen- and gestagen-related compounds on the expression of the AQP5 channel in the late-pregnant rat uterus. Furthermore, we ex...
متن کاملPhotodynamic Therapy: A New Approach to Remove Embryos of the Wistar Rat
Background Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising new cancer treatment strategy which inactivates tumor cells by simultaneoulsy using light and a photosensitizer. The similarity between tumors and newly implanted embryos is notable. Extrauterine pregnancy (EUP) does not have a definite treatment and previous therapeutic options (medical and surgical) have not been effective or suitable. Ther...
متن کاملMyometrial constitutive nitric oxide synthase expression is increased during human pregnancy.
Nitric oxide (NO), derived from L-arginine by the action of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), is a mediator of many diverse biological activities, including vasodilation, neurotransmission and inhibition of platelet adhesion. A role for NO in the maintenance of rat and rabbit pregnancy is supported by a variety of studies. A recent study in women demonstrated that myometrial inducible NOS (iNOS) exp...
