[ 1 ] - Hydro-alcoholic extract of Matricaria recutita exhibited dual anti-spasmodic effect via modulation of Ca2+ channels, NO and PKA2-kinase pathway in rabbit jejunum

Objective: Several studies have shown the antispasmodic activity of Matricariarecutita without detailing the underlying mechanism(s). The present study was designed to determine whether the antispasmodic mechanisms of M. recutita extract mediated via histaminergic/cholinergic receptors, Ca2+channels, activation of PKA2 and NO release in isolated rabbit jejunum. Methods and Materials: The concen...

[ 2 ] - تاثیر هیستوپاتولوژیک بخار فرمالدهید بر کلیه موش صحرایی

Background and purpose: Formaldehyde is a chemical traditionally used for fixing the cadaver. It is vaporized during dissection and practical studying on cadaver. Studies show that this vapour can cause some clinical sympotms such as throat, eye, skin and nasal irritation. This study was designed to determine the histopathological changes of rat kidney tissue exposed to formaldehyde for 18...

[ 3 ] - Effect of nitric oxide modulation on the basic and rate-dependent electrophysiological properties of AV-node in the isolated heart of rabbit: The role of adrenergic and cholinergic receptors

Introduction: Recent studies showed that nitrergic system have specific modulatory effects on electrophysiological properties of atrioventricular (AV) node. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of nitric oxide (NO) on the electrophysiological properties of isolated rabbit AV node and to investigate the role of adrenergic and cholinergic receptors in the mechanism of its action...
