Straub tail, the deprivation effect and addiction to aggression
Background. It has been observed that male mice who are consistently winning fights with conspecifics in the settings of the sensory contact model can for no apparent reason raise their tail, which is very similar to a morphine-induced Straub tail response. Since this response is a typical index of opiate activation, it has been proposed that the opioidergic systems of such mice are chronically...
متن کاملCrocin prevents haloperidol-induced orofacial dyskinesia: possible an antioxidant mechanism
Objective(s):Long-term treatment with antipsychotics causes serious side effects such as tardive dyskinesia that characterized by abnormal movements in the orofacial region. Oxidative stress in the brain specific area is implicated in the pathophysiology of tardive dyskinesia. In this study the protective effect of crocin on haloperidol-induced orofacial dyskinesia was evaluated. Materials and ...
متن کاملPossible mechanism of tolerance to ketamine-induced blockade of cortical spreading depression
Ketamine (KET) induced blockade of cortical spreading depression (CSD) declines with repeated KET applications in a way suggesting the development of tolerance. Possible mechanism of this process was studied in 31 rats anestheized with pentobarbital. CSD was elicited by injection of 1µl of 5% KCl into cortex at 15 min intervals and monitored by recording the accompanying slow potential waves....
متن کاملSpermatogonia apoptosis induction as a possible mechanism of Toxoplasma gondii induced male infertility
Objective(s): The protozoan Toxoplasma gondii as an intracellular protozoan is widely prevalent in humans and animals. Infection generally occurs through consuming food contaminated with oocysts and tissue cysts from undercooked meat. The parasite is carried in sexual fluids like semen but there is little information about the effect of T. gondii on the male reproducti...
متن کاملAttenuation of Morphine Withdrawal Syndrome by Various Dosages of Curcumin in Comparison with Clonidine in Mouse: Possible Mechanism
Background: Herbal medical compounds and their major constituent have been used in the management and treatment of opioid withdrawal syndrome and pain. This study was carried out to clarify the effect of curcumin, the major compound of turmeric, on morphine withdrawal syndrome in mouse model and its possible mechanisms of pain relieving activity by assessing in writhing test as a model of visce...
