[ 1 ] - Antinociceptive effect of the aqueous extract obtained from Foeniculum vulgare in mice: the role of histamine H1 and H2 receptors
Foeniculum vulgare (fennel) has been widely used in traditional medicine for treatment of variousdiseases including pediatric colic. This study was designed to assess the antinociceptive effects of aqueousextract of F. vulgare on visceral pain and possible involvement of opioidergic, serotonergic, adrenergic andhistaminergic systems. The results of this study showed that aqueous extract of F. v...
[ 2 ] - The role of the histaminergic system on the inhibitory effect of ghrelin on feed intake in broiler chickens
This study was conducted to investigate the possible involvement of the histaminergic system in themediation of ghrelin-induced feeding behavior in broiler chickens. In the trial 1, the effect ofintracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of ghrelin on feed intake was examined in 3-h feed-deprived broilerchickens. In the trials 2 and 3, the chickens were received ICV chlorpheniramine (an H1 recepto...
[ 3 ] - Ghrelin enhances viability of rat spermatozoa during incubation at 37°C
Antioxidant properties of ghrelin have been demonstrated in recent studies. In the present study, theeffects of chronic administration of ghrelin on the motility and plasma membrane integrity of rat spermatozoa during incubation at 37ºC were investigated. Thirty 45-day-old male Wistar rats were divided into control and treatment groups. Rats in the treatment group were daily injected subcutaneo...
[ 4 ] - The role of central endogenous histamine and H1, H2 and H3 receptors on food intake in broiler chickens
The role of endogenous histamine and H1, H2 and H3 central receptors on food intake in broiler chickenswas investigated. For this purpose, a probe was used to manipulate the concentration of endogenoushistamine by intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of thioperamide, an H3 receptor antagonist, and R-α-methylhistamine, an H3 receptor agonist and subsequently the effects of brain histaminergic...
