The names of the majority neurotransmitters are little known to average citizen. But mention adrenaline immediately generates a storm associations. Someone's head will have profile Jason Statham from film same name. purpose article. rushed symbol something risky and attractive in its own way, but what is point view neurophysiologist - goal proposed A number studies shown that y athletes during ...

Recombinant, replication-deficient serotype 5 adenovirus infects the liver upon in vivo, systemic injection in rodents. This infection requires the binding of factor X to the capsid of this adenovirus. Another organ, the adrenal gland is also infected upon systemic administration of Ad, however, whether this infection is dependent on the cocksackie adenovirus receptor (CAR) or depends on the bi...

The adrenal glands have had a long and complex history, and for many years, different schools of anatomy doubted their very existence. Although some authors suggested that the first description of the glands occurred in the Bible (Leviticus 3:4), most authorities credit Bartholomeus Eustachius (1520-1574) with the discovery of the adrenal glands in humans. In his great work, Opuscula Anatomica,...

Based on the fact that main symptom of epilepsy, seizures, depends not only state brain, but also irritability muscles, latter being - as shown by experiments animals and observations in humans depending, inter alia, activity adrenal glands, Fischer proposed epilepsy to remove surgically.

Leptin is secreted mainly by fat, which is involved in energy metabolism and reproduction. Leptin and itsreceptor (Ob-R) have been detected in human spermatozoa and testis, thus it can be concluded leptin involves in male physiology. The goal of this study was determination of the presence of leptin receptor mRNA in the ram testis, epididymis and spermatozoa by reverse transcription polymerase ...

Pregnancy dramatically affects the function of the adrenal glands and is associated with altered levels of adrenal hormones. Endocrine adaptation to pregnancy involves changes in the activities of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axes. As a result, pregnancy may influence the course of pre-existing adrenal diseases or lead to their unmasking. Although disorde...

testosterone enanthate (te) is used by many athletes as a muscle builder. previous studies showed that high concentration of the drug in plasma may affect the natural function of endocrine glands, specially the secretion of the adrenocortical hormones. the objective of the present study was to examine the effects of high concentration of te on histometrical structure of adrenal cortex in male r...
