A new model for the immobilization of the rat hind limb.
An alternative device for the immobilization of the hind limb of the rat was developed to study the effects of chronic disuse on the soleus and tibialis anterior muscles, maintained for 3 weeks in the shortening and the stretching positions, respectively. The proposed device is made of steel mesh and cotton materials, and has some advantages when compared to cast or plaster cast: it is cheaper,...
متن کاملGlutaminase Increases in Rat Dorsal Root Ganglion Neurons after Unilateral Adjuvant-Induced Hind Paw Inflammation
Glutamate is a neurotransmitter used at both the peripheral and central terminals of nociceptive primary sensory neurons, yet little is known concerning regulation of glutamate metabolism during peripheral inflammation. Glutaminase (GLS) is an enzyme of the glutamate-glutamine cycle that converts glutamine into glutamate for neurotransmission and is implicated in producing elevated levels of gl...
متن کاملEffect of Royal Jelly on Formalin Induced-Inflammation in Rat Hind Paw
BACKGROUND Royal Jelly (RJ), a food item secreted by worker honeybees, is a mixture that contains protein, glucose, lipid, vitamins, and minerals; it is widely used as a commercial medical product. Previous studies have shown that RJ has a number of physiological effects, such as anti-inflammatory, antitumor, antiallergic and antioxidant activities. OBJECTIVES In the present study, the anti-i...
متن کاملNeuronal mechanisms contribute to corticotropin-releasing factor-induced anti-oedema effect in the rat hind paw.
The present study is designed to elucidate the involvement of neuronal mechanisms in corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF)-induced anti-oedema effects. Oedema was induced in the rat hind paw by subcutaneous injection of 3 nmol of serotonin (5-HT). A single dose of CRF (9.4, 37.5 or 75 pmol) was given either ipsilaterally or contralaterally 30 min before 5-HT injection and oedema formation was su...
متن کاملWhole body vibration induces forepaw and hind paw behavioral sensitivity in the rat.
Whole body vibration (WBV) has been linked to neck and back pain, but the biomechanical and physiological mechanisms responsible for its development and maintenance are unknown. A rodent model of WBV was developed in which rats were exposed to different WBV paradigms, either daily for 7 consecutive days (repeated WBV) or two single exposures at Day 0 and 7 (intermittent WBV). Each WBV session l...
