In the present study, the analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of a new alkaloid (5′-Hydroxymethyl-1′-(1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-pyrrolo [2,1-b] quinazolin-1-yl)-heptan-1-one) (compound 1), isolated from Sida cordifolia Linn. was investigated in animal models. The analgesic activity was investigated in the acetic acid induced writhing and the radiant heat tail flick model in mice a...

objective(s): fluvoxamine is a well-known selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (ssri); despite its anti-inflammatory effect, little is known about the precise mechanisms involved. in our previous work, we found that ip administration of fluvoxamine produced a noticeable anti-inflammatory effect in carrageenan-induced paw edema in rats. in this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of fluvoxa...

Introduction: Overproduction of gingival pro-inflammatory cytokines have been implicated to play a noticeable role in the pathogenesis of periodontitis, which is characterized by host-mediated destruction of soft and hard periodontal tissues. Moringa oleifera (MO) is a highly valued medicinal plant which has a wide impressive range of traditional medical applications and is an alternative medic...

This study aimed to observe the protective effects of sufentanil pretreatment on rat cerebral injury during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and to explore the underlying mechanism. Twenty-four male adult Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were divided into 4 groups. Then, the rat CPB model was established. A 14G trocar was inserted into the atrium dextrum. For rats in S1 and S5 groups, sufentanil (1 µg•kg-1...

Abstract: Title: Teratogenic Effects of Intravitreal Injection of Bevacizumab in Pregnant Rat Models Aim: To investigate teratogenic effect of intravitreal injection of bevacizumab in pregnant rat model Methods: Twenty seven female Wistar rat were inseminated. Pregnant rats were divided into 6 groups (three groups as case and three as control groups). Each case and control groups divided accord...

objective: to determine the preventive effects of local administration of simvastatin for postoperative intra-abdominal adhesion formation in animal model of rat . methods: in this experimental study, 32 wistar albino rats as the animal model of intra-abdominal adhesion formation were included. adhesions were induced in all the animals via abrasion of the peritoneal and intestinal surface durin...

Rodent infestation has always been one of the most severe threats to humans, solve which consumes massive manpower and resources. People usually use traps or poisons treat rat infestation. Such passive countermeasures are inefficient. Damages often occur when rats finally trapped killed, not mention potential risk injure humans cause pollution. In this paper, we propose a WiFi-based active smal...

Current organ preservation strategies subject graft vasculature to severe hypoxia (Po2 20 Torr), potentially compromising vascular function and limiting successful transplantation. Previous work has shown that cAMP modulates endothelial cell (EC) antithrombogenicity, barrier function, and leukocyte/EC interactions, and that hypoxia suppresses EC cAMP levels. To explore the possible benefits ofc...
