چکیده

character, with several brief papers on a variety of photobiological subjects, all of them interesting, but not integrated into the basic topics covered in earlier parts of the book. It should be clear that anyone interested in almost any phase of photobiology can find something useful and entertaining in this book. I recommend it as a convenient summary of the state of the art in photobiology.

Effect of whole body vibration therapy on circulating serotonin levels in an ovariectomized rat model of osteoporosis

  Objective(s): Studies have reported that whole body vibration (WBV) played a vital role in bone remodeling. Circulating serotonin is also involved in negative regulating bone mass in rodents and humans. However, both WBV and inhibition of serotonin biosynthesis may suppress receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro . The purpose of the ...
