چکیده

Hypoventilation increases PaCO(2) (hypercapnia) and initiates the acid-base disorder known as respiratory acidosis. Hyperventilation decreases PaCO(2) (hypocapnia) and initiates the acid-base disorder known as respiratory alkalosis. The impact on acidity of these primary changes in PaCO(2) is ameliorated by secondary, directional changes in plasma bicarbonate concentration that occur in two stages. Acutely, modest changes in plasma bicarbonate originate from titration of the body's nonbicarbonate buffers. In chronic hypercapnia and hypocapnia, larger changes in plasma bicarbonate occur that reflect adjustments in renal acidification mechanisms. As a result, the amelioration of systemic acidity is more pronounced in the chronic forms of the respiratory acid-base disorders.

COMPARISON OF PHYSIOLOGICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL RESPONDS BETWEEN TWO VARIETIES OF Glycyrrhiza glabra TO MOLYBDENUM AND SALICYLIC ACID

To investigate responses of Glycyrrhiza glabra var. glabra and G. glabra var. glandulifera to molybdenum and salicylic acid, we measured four stress biochemical parameters: anthocyanin, nitric acid, glycyrrhizic acid and peroxidase activity in callus tissues. Callus tissues obtained from seedlings root cultures were treated by 60 mg. l-1 molybdenum and 5 µM salicylic acid alone or together for...

Screening of Different Organs of Rats for HCA2 Receptor mRNA

Interest in hydroxy - carboxylic acid 2 (HCA2) receptor has been raised since it is the target of antidyslipidemic drug nicotinic acid. The present study aimed to evaluate the presence of mRNA of this receptor in different organs of laboratory rat. Twenty two different organs of rats including mesenteric fat, epididymis (head, body and tail), testis, ovary, xiphoid process, liver, adrenal gland...

Dose-Dependent inhibitory Effect of Ferulic Acid, a Dietary Antioxidant on Nicotine-Induced Tissue Oxidative Stress in Experimental Rats

The present study was aimed at elucidating the protective effect of ferulic acid (FA), a natural polyphenol against nicotine-induced tissue damage, including lung, liver and kidney of experimental rats. Female albino rats of Wistar stain were used for the experimental study. Lung toxicity was induced by subcutaneous injection of nicotine at a dose of 2.5 mg/kg body weight (5 days a week, for 22...

Dosimetry of Nano-Radio-Ytterbium Therapy by MIRD and MCNP methods for humans’ organs

Introduction: Nano radio-pharmaceutical therapy (NRPT) is a new method for solid tumor therapy. The treatment uses a radioactive form of radionuclide encapsulated in the poly amido amine dendrimers. The poly (amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers have attracted attentions for cancer treatment by their characteristics of targeted drug carriers, delivery agents, and imaging agents in hu...
