Hyperbaric environment up-regulates CD15s expression on leukocytes, down-regulates CD77 expression on renal cells and up-regulates CD34 expression on pulmonary and cardiac cells in rat
Objective(s): The aim of this study was to estimate effects of hyperbaric (HB) treatment by determination of CD15s and CD11b leukocyte proinflammatory markers expression. In addition, this study describes changes in CD77 and CD34 expression on rat endothelial cells in renal, pulmonary and cardiac tissue following exposure to hyperbaric pressure. Materials and Methods:Expression of CD11b and CD...

متن کاملChronic sildenafil treatment inhibits monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension in rats.
Sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor, is currently under investigation for therapy of pulmonary hypertension. This study was designed to investigate chronic effects of sildenafil in monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary hypertension in rats. Four weeks after a single subcutaneous injection of MCT, the animals displayed nearly threefold elevated pulmonary artery pressure and vascular resi...
متن کاملPropranolol Prevents Osteoporosis and up-regulates Leptin in Ovariectomized Rats
Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease and there is a close relationship between the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and bone metabolism. Leptin has been shown to regulate bone formation and bone resorption via the SNS. However, the effect of SNS on leptin signaling has not been clearly understood. In the present study, we studied the effect of propranolol on ovariectomy-induced osteoporo...
