Anxiogenic effects of chronic exposure to nandrolone decanoate (ND) at supraphysiological dose in rats: a brief report.
OBJECTIVE Nandrolone decanoate (ND) is frequently used anabolic androgenic steroid (AAS) among the athletes. Despite the health risks, there is significant increase in prevalence of AAS abuse. DESIGN The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of chronic exposure to ND at supraphysiological dose (to mimic the doses for human AAS abusers) on anxiety levels in adult rats.

متن کاملThe effects of swimming exercise and supraphysiological doses of nandrolone decanoate on the testis in adult male rats: a transmission electron microscope study.
Anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) are used in high doses by athletes to improve athletic ability, physical appearance, and muscle mass. Unfortunately, the abuse of these agents has significantly increased. It has been established that exercise and high doses of AAS may influence the hypothalamic-pituitary gonadal (H-P-G) axis, which can in turn affect the ultrastructure of the testes. However,...
متن کاملEffects of Short Term Oral Administration of Curcumin on Achilles Tendon Healing in Rats
Objective- Tendon healing, in terms of histologic and functional characteristics, is always inferior to its normal level due to the poor vascularity and low metabolic rate. Curcumin possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and healing effects. This study aimed to investigate effects of curcumin on Achilles tendon experimental injury using histopathology, biomechanical and functional evaluation...
