Local Application of NK1 Receptor Antagonists and Pulpal Blood Flow in Cat
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pulpal inflammation can result from mechanical, chemical, or bacterial insult. The initial vascular reactions during inflammation in the dental pulp are vasodilation and increased vascular permeability. These vascular reactions are induced by activation of sensory nerve endings of C-fiber. This condition is called neurogenic inflammation. The inflammatory process in the pulp does not differ significantly from that in other tissues in most respects with a notable exception, the low compliance environment. Activation of sensory nerve causes release of vasoactive peptides from Local Application of NK1 Receptor Antagonists and Pulpal Blood Flow in Cat

CEREBRAL BLOOD FLOW REGULATION IN ANESTHETIZED MORPHINE DEPENDENT RATS: THE ROLE OF THE ADENOSINE SYSTEM
Adenosine has many of the characteristics of a regulator of cerebral blood flow and adenosine receptors change in morphine dependency. In this study the changes in adenosine receptors' responsiveness of pial vessels in the hind limb area of the sensory cortex were evaluated in morphine dependent rats (MDR) using the laser Doppler flowmetry technique. Adult male Sprague Dawley rats (250-350 ...
متن کاملMECHANISMS OF BLOOD FLOW INCREASE INDUCED BY ELECTRICAL STIMULATION
Previous studies have shown that electrical stimulation (ES) increases blood flow, but the exact mechanisms are not clear. The present study was designed to clarify some of the underlying mechanisms involved in this phenomenon. White adult rabbits Lt.-6 months old were used. Animals were anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital (40 mg/kg, IV) and skin blood flow in the thoracic back was recorde...
متن کاملNeurokinin-1 receptor antagonists inhibit the recruitment of opioid-containing leukocytes and impair peripheral antinociception.
BACKGROUND Neurokinins (e.g., substance P) contribute to pain transmission in the central nervous system, peripheral neurogenic inflammation, and leukocyte recruitment in inflammation. Leukocyte recruitment involves (1) up-regulation of adhesion molecule expression through neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptors on endothelial cells, (2) augmented chemokine production, or (3) chemotaxis through NK1 recept...
متن کاملQSAR studies and application of genetic algorithm - multiple linear regressions in prediction of novel p2x7 receptor antagonists’ activity
Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models were employed for prediction the activity of P2X7 receptor antagonists. A data set consisted of 50 purine derivatives was utilized in the model construction where 40 and 10 of these compounds were in the training and test sets respectively. A suitable group of calculated molecular descriptors was selected by employing stepwise multiple ...

Losartan potassium, Valsartan , Telmisartan and Irbesartan are angiotensin-II-receptor antagonists (ARA II) group which used in treatment of hypertension alone or in combination with other drugs mainly Hydrochlorothiazide. RP- HPLC method was developed for the assay of three angiotensin-II-receptor antagonists (ARA-IIs) in presence of Hydrochlorothiazide. The method was performed by reversed ph...
