conclusions in our study, hydroalcoholic extract of cyperus scariosus linn. offered nephroprotection in the form of aki prevention and for the treatment of established aki. results serum creatinine was significantly increased (p < 0.05) while 24 hours urine output, urine creatinine, and serum protein were significantly decreased (p < 0.05) in rats treated with gentamicin as compared to the cont...

Objective(s): To study the effect of acute and repeated stress on cardioprotection-induced by remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC).Materials and Methods: RIPC was induced by giving 4 short cycles of ischemia and reperfusion, each consisting of five min. The Langendorff’s apparatus was used to perfuse the isolated rat hearts by subjecti...

Introduction: Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone (CRH) is involved in stress and energy homeostasis. On the other hand, CRH receptors also exist within the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and Central Amygdala (CeA) nuclei. The present study compared the effect of CRH microinjections into PVN and CeA on three consecutive hours and cumulative food intake, internal regulatory factors of food intake, su...

coping style is one of the substantial factors influencing sport achievements insport competitions. the main aim of the present study was to examine the effect ofsport stress coping styles on sources of acute stress and salivary cortisol inwrestlers. with regard to the criteria and variables of this study, 30 out of 270active national wrestlers participated according to the cut-off point of cop...

Stress is a reaction to unwanted events disturbing body homeostasis which influences its pathways and target areas. Stress affects the brain through the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) orexinergic system that mediates the effect of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) through CRH receptor type 1 (CRHr1). Therefore, this study explores the outcome of stress exposure on anxiety development and t...

objective: the present study aimed to determine whether castration altered osmotically stimulated vasopressin (vp) release and urinary volume and what is the role of endocrine-stress axis in this process. materials and methods: totally 108 mice were studied in two main groups of castrated (n=78) and control (n=30). each group was extracted by acute cold stress (4◦c for 2h/day), restraint stress...

Introduction: It is known that acute and chronic stress induce hormonal and neuronal changes which affecting both pain threshold and nociceptive behaviours. Orexin plays an important role in modulation of pain and stress. Considering pain modulation during stress and the role of orexin in pain and stress, orexin might be involved in pain modulation during stress.We evaluated the involvement ...
