Adrenalectomy protects ethanol-withdrawn rats from harmine-induced tremor.
A growing number of studies have implicated the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in acute and chronic alcoholization and in ethanol withdrawal. In order to study the ethanol/HPA axis interaction during alcohol withdrawal, we performed experiments using adrenalectomized (ADX) male rats alcoholized by a chronic pulmonary alcoholization procedure. Eight hours after the 3 weeks of the alco...
متن کاملHarmine recover kidney damage induced by morphine in male rats
Harmine is a harmal-derived alkaloid with antioxidant properties. The morphine produces free radicals and plays a key role in the pathogenesis of kidney disease. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of harmine against morphine- induced damage to the kidneys of rats. In this study, 64 male rats were randomly assigned to 8 groups: saline and morphine treated groups; harmine groups (5, ...
متن کاملRelationship between blood harmane and harmine concentrations in familial essential tremor, sporadic essential tremor and controls.
INTRODUCTION Harmane, a potent tremor-producing β-carboline alkaloid, may play a role in the etiology of essential tremor (ET). Blood harmane concentrations are elevated in ET cases compared with controls yet the basis for this elevation remains unknown. Decreased metabolic conversion (harmane to harmine) is one possible explanation. Using a sample of >500 individuals, we hypothesized that defe...
متن کاملP-25: Royal Jelly Protects from The Paclitaxel-Induced Damages on Sperm Quality in Rats
Background: Paclitaxel (Taxol, TXL) is a chemotherapy agent which widely used in the treatment of tumors, such as lung cancer, breast and prostatic cancer. Previous reports indicate that taxol damages mainly dividing cells (spermatogonias and spermatocytes) and postmeiotic epitheliocytes (spermatids and spermatozoa). The toxic effect of the drug on microtubules underlies its antiproliferative e...
متن کاملGhrelin protects against ethanol-induced gastric ulcers in rats: studies on the mechanisms of action.
Ghrelin, the endogenous ligand for GH secretagogue receptors, has been reported to influence acid gastric secretion and motility, but its potential gastroprotective effect is unknown. The aims of this study were 1) to examine the effects of central and peripheral administration of ghrelin on ethanol-induced gastric ulcers in conscious rats, and 2) to investigate the possible roles of nitric oxi...
