[ 1 ] - Interference-free Determination of Carbamazepine in Human Serum Using High Performance Liquid Chromatography: A Comprehensive Research with Three-way Calibration Methods

In the present study, a comprehensive and systematic strategy was described to evaluate the performance of several three-way calibration methods on a bio-analytical problem. Parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC), alternating trilinear decomposition (ATLD), self-weighted alternating trilinear decomposition (SWATLD), alternating penalty trilinear decomposition (APTLD) and unfolded partial least squa...

[ 3 ] - Cytotoxic effect of methanolic extracts of vegetative and reproductive parts of Vinca rosea on A431, a human skin squamous carcinoma cell line

Introduction: Vinca rosea, an important medicinal plant, is well-known for its anticancer properties especially against breast cancer. In this study, we compared the cytotoxic effects of methanolic extracts of the vegetative (young and old leaves) and reproductive (flowers) organs of this plant on a human squamous cell carcinoma using MTT assay. Methods: The cytotoxic effects of Vinca rosea'...

[ 4 ] - The effect of nimesulide on CoxII expression in central and peripheral immune cells (microglia and macrophage) in a rat model of neuropathic pain

Introduction: Neuropathic pain may be due to a primary insult to the peripheral or central nervous system. In this situation, Hyperalgesia and Allodynia are the results of prostaglandins and cytokines release in the spinal cord. It seems that immune cells play an importat role in the induction and maintenance of chronic pain. Compared to selective CoxII inhibitors, nimesulide, a highly select...

[ 5 ] - The attenuating effect of curcumin on morphine dependence in rats: the involvement of spinal microglial cells and inflammatory cytokines

Background: New evidence suggests an important role for spinal glial cells in development of opioid dependence. Curcumin, a component of the Curcuma Longa, has shown to act as a suppressor of microglial cells. The main goal of this study was to explore the attenuating effects of curcumin on morphine dependence with a focus on spinal microglial cells and inflammatory cytokines. Methods: In...
