چکیده

objective(s):the mechanism of hypothermia action of acetaminophen (apap) remains unclear even 125 years after its synthesis. acetaminophen produces hypothermia. the mechanism of this reduction in core body temperature is not clear but evidence shows that it is not dependent on opioid and cannabinoid receptors. because of strong documents about the roles of gaba and benzodiazepine receptors in hypothemic activity of some drugs such as diazepam, we determined if these receptors also contributes to the hypothermic effect of apap. materials and methods: diazepam (5 mg/kg, ip) was used for induction of hypothermia. flumazenil (10 mg/kg, ip) or picrotoxin (2 mg/kg, ip) used for reversal of this effect. rats injected with apap (100, 200 or 300 mg/kg, ip). baseline temperature measurements were taken with a digital thermometer via rectum. to evaluate the structural correlation between apap and benzodiazepine receptor ligands, numerous models are selected and studied at hf/6-31g* level of theory. relative energies, enthalpies and gibbs free energies were calculated for all selected drugs. results:diazepam induced hypothermia was reversed by flumazenil or picrotoxin. rats injected with apap displayed dose- and time-related hypothermia. for combined administration, the hypothermic effect of apap (200 mg/kg) was strongly reduced by pretreatment with picrotoxin or flumazenil p<0.0001and p<0.01, respectively. selective structural data, bond length, dihedral angles, and related distance in pharmacophore of apap and bzdr models were the same. some significant structural analogues were obtained between these drugs. conclusion:results suggest hypothermic action of acetaminophen may be mediate by its effect at gabaa benzodiazepine receptor.

postnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...

POSSIBLE INVOLVEMENT OF GABAA RECEPTOR SITES IN CATALEPSY

The present work was performed to show the possible interaction of GAB A, and GABAB receptors in catalepsy. The following results were obtained: 1- Muscimol (MUS), a GABAA agonist, induced catalepsy. This effect was dose-dependent. Baclofen (BAC), a GABAB agonist, had no effect in this respect. 2- Catalepsy induced by muscimol was potentiated by pretreatment of animals with bicuculline (BI...
