objective(s): studies have reported that whole body vibration (wbv) played a vital role in bone remodeling. circulating serotonin is also involved in negative regulating bone mass in rodents and humans. however, both wbv and inhibition of serotonin biosynthesis may suppress receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappab ligand (rankl)-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro . the purpose of the curren...

The regulation of dopamine and serotonin synthesis in rat brain striatal synaptosomes has been studied using HPLC methods. Noradrenaline was shown to markedly inhibit both the synthesis of dopamine and serotonin. The response of the synaptosomes to the concentrations of noradrenaline appeared to be biphasic, a very effective inhibition occurring at low concentrations (1-5 µm) and a relativ...

Introduction: For centuries, cannabinoids are known to be effective in pain relief. Itch is an unpleasant sensation that provokes a desire to scratch. Since itch and pain are two sensations sharing a lot in common, we aimed to investigate whether the cannabinoid agonist WIN 55,212-2 reduces serotonin-induced scratching behavior and also observe whether modulation of nitric oxide (NO) production...

background: anxiety-related traits have been attributed to sequence variability in the genes coding for serotonin transmission in the brain. two alleles, termed long (l) and short (s) differing by 44 base pairs, are found in a polymorphism identified in the promoter region of serotonin transporter gene. the presence of the short allele and ss and ls genotypes is found to be associated with the ...

schizophrenia is a debilitating illness, rating as one of the leading causes of lost years of quality of life. the illness imposes a disproportionate burden on patients and their families, healthcare systems and society. pharmacological management is the cornerstone of treatment of schizophrenia, and antipsychotics, both first generation of antipsychotics and second generation of antipsychotics...

the objective of this experiment was comparison blood serotonin levels in ascetic and non ascitic broilers of three strains (ross, arbor acres plus and cobb). to this purpose, a factorial test in crd was applied. in each of these three strains, 12 ascitic and 12 non ascitic broilers were selected. after tagging and blood sampling, all of blood samples were divided in two parts. one part was app...
