The Effect of Aerobic Exercise and Melatonin on COX-2 Gene Expression in Spinal Cord Tissue and Neuropathic Pain Behavioral Responses in a Diabetic Rat Model
Introduction: Neuroinflammation plays an important role in developing many neurological changes in diabetic patients. This study aimed to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise and melatonin on COX-2 expression in spinal cord tissue and behavioral responses to pain caused by diabetic neuropathy in a rat model. Materials and Methods: Forty eight-week-old male Wistar rats (weight range 204 ± ...
متن کاملAn Optimal Protocol to Analyze the Rat Spinal Cord Proteome
Since the function of the spinal cord depends on the proteins found there, better defing the normal Spinal Cord Proteome is an important and challenging task. Although brain and cerebrospinal fluid samples from patients with different central nervous system (CNS) disorders have been studied, a thorough examination of specific spinal cord proteins and the changes induced by injury or associated ...
متن کاملChanges in beta 1 and beta 2 integrin genes expression in rat lumbar spinal cord is supportive of the inhibitory effect of chronic pain on the development of tolerance to morphine analgesia
Introduction: In order to study the alterations of beta 1 and 2 integrins mRNA level in rat lumbar spinal cord following the induction of chronic pain and its effect on the development of tolerance to morphine analgesia, we examined the level of expression of these genes in the presence of chronic pain, which is an inhibitor of morphine tolerance. We used induction of chronic pain alone and ...

Introduction: The use of standard rodent model, allows for the understanding of neuronal injury physiopathology and helping development of therapeutic strategies. Because of eliminating technical problems, we designed a modified impactor device with ability to induce different degrees according to kilodyne from very mild to very severe of spinal cord injury (SCI) and traumatic brain injury (TBI...

متن کاملEffects of Valproic Acid, a Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor, on improvement of Locomotor Function in Rat Spinal Cord Injury Based on Epigenetic Science
Background: The primary phase of traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) starts by a complex local inflammatory reaction such as secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines from microglia and injured cells that substantially contribute to exacerbating pathogenic events in secondary phase. Valproic acid (VPA) is a histone deacetylase inhibitor. Acetylation of histones is critical to cellular inflammatory...
