چکیده

The effects of several putative mediators of inflammatory responses on the cyclic nucleotide content of mononuclear leukocytes from human peripheral blood were investigated. Incubation of mononuclear cells with 100 muM serotonin (a maximally effective concentration) for 5 min caused a five- to eightfold increase in their content of guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP)...

Pharmacological profile of 2-bromoterguride at human dopamine D2, porcine serotonin 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A, and α2C-adrenergic receptors, and its antipsychotic-like effects in rats.

Dopaminergic, serotonergic, and adrenergic receptors are targets for therapeutic actions in schizophrenia. Dopamine D2 receptor partial agonists such as aripiprazole represent a treatment option for patients with this severe disorder. The ineffectiveness of terguride, another D2 receptor partial agonist, in treating schizophrenia was recently attributed to its considerably high intrinsic activi...

Antinociceptive Effect of Vardenafil on Carrageenan-Induced Hyperalgesia in Rat: Involvement of Nitric Oxide/Cyclic Guanosine monophosphate/ Calcium Channels Pathway

In this study, we aimed to investigate the peripheral antinociception effects of specificphosphodiesterase 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor vardenafil on carrageenan-induced nociception in rats,and the role of calcium besides the L-arginine- nitric oxide (NO)- cyclic guanosine monophophate(cGMP) pathway in these effects. Hyperalgesia was induced by the intraplantar injection of 0.1mL fresh carrageenan solut...

Characterization of a novel effect of serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors: increasing cGMP levels in rat frontal cortex.

Elucidating the mechanisms of action of hallucinogens has become an increasingly important area of research as their abuse has grown in recent years. Although serotonin receptors appear to play a role in the behavioral effects of the phenethylamine and indoleamine hallucinogens, the signaling pathways activated by these agents are unclear. Here it is shown that administration of serotonin (5-hy...

Effects Uptake of Concanavalin a on 5-hydroxytryptamine by Rabbit Blood Platelets and on Their Ultrastructure

1 Effects of concanavalin A (Con A) and other lectins on 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) uptake by rabbit blood platelets and on their ultrastructure were studied. 2 Uptake of [3H]-5-HT by platelets was decreased by application of Con A, E-PHA (lectin from Phaseoltis vulgaris) and lentil-PHA (lectin from Lens culinaris), but not by wheat germ agglutinin (WGA). Con A induced specific changes in the u...
