Spinal and supraspinal analgesic effects of Nimodipine : The role of Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Adrenal(HPA) axis .
Nimodipine, an L-type calcium channel blocker, can induce analgesia. However, it is not clear that this analgesic effect is at the level of spinal or supraspinal pain pathway. In addition, it has been reported that the analgesic effect of nifedipine, another L-type calcium channel blocker is related to the HPA axis, but there is no report indicating the role of this axis in the analgesic eff...

متن کاملComparison of the effects of dextromethorphan, dextrorphan, and levorphanol on the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis.
Dextromethorphan is a weak noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist. It is metabolized in vivo to dextrorphan, a more potent noncompetitive NMDA antagonist that is the dextrorotatory enantiomer of the opioid agonist levorphanol. The present study characterized the effects of the acute administration of dextromethorphan, dextrorphan, and levorphanol on the hypothalamo-pitui...
متن کاملIntroduction to the Hypothalamo- Pituitary-adrenal (hpa) Axis
OBJECTIVES: • Identify appropriate hypothalamic factors that control the secretion of each of the anterior pituitary hormones, and describe their route of transport from the hypothalamus to the anterior pituitary. • Contrast the anterior and posterior pituitary lobes with respect to cell types, vascular supply, development, and innervation (hypothalamic). • Diagram the short-loop and long-loop ...
متن کاملDifferential effects of mineralocorticoid blockade on the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis in pregnant and nonpregnant ewes.
During pregnancy, plasma ACTH and cortisol are chronically increased; this appears to occur through a reset of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) activity. We have hypothesized that differences in mineralocorticoid receptor activity in pregnancy may alter feedback inhibition of the HPA axis. We tested the effect of MR antagonism in pregnant and nonpregnant ewes infused for 4 h with saline or t...
