P80: The Effects of Progesterone Receptors\' Antagonist RU-486 on BrainEdema, Intracranial Pressure and Neurological Outcomes after Traumatic Brain Injury
In previous studies, the neuroprotective effect of progestrone in diffuse traumatic brain injury has been shown. This study used mifepristone (RU-486), a potent progesterone receptor antagonist, to evaluatethe hypothesis that the neuroprotective effect of progesterone in traumatic brain injury is mediated by the progesterone receptors. The ovariectomized rats were divided into 6 groups. Brain i...
متن کاملProtection of RU-486 as contraception, emergency contraception and as an abortifacient under the law of contraception.
RU-486, or mifepristone, can work as a contraceptive, as an emergency contraceptive, or as an abortifacient. It has the potential to dramatically increase the privacy of procreative choice. For this to happen, RU-486 must fall under the protection of contraception law rather than the law of abortion. Contraception law constitutionally guarantees access to contraception, including emergency cont...
متن کاملP-21: RF-Amide Related Peptide mRNA Expression in Male Rat Dorsomedial Hypothalamic Nucleus during Chronic Stress
Background Chronic stress induces male reproductive dysfunction; however, the involved mechanisms are not clear. It has been suggested that the gonadotrophin-inhibitory hormone, known as RF-amide related peptide (RFRP) in mammalian species, may mediate this inhibitory effect of stress. The objective of the present study was to compare the effect of chronic stress and glucocorticoids receptor an...
متن کاملP-5: Effect of Chronic Stress on Kiss-1 mRNA Expression in Male Rat Arcuate Hypothalamic Nucleus
Background Kisspeptin is a potent stimulator of the hypothalamic- pituitary-gonadal axis and may play a critical role in modulating of stress-induced suppression of reproduction. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of glucocorticoid receptor antagonist (RU486) and stress on expression of Kiss-1 mRNA in arcuate nucleus (ARC) of rat hypothalamus.

متن کاملEffects of Bai zhu san (Atractylodis macrocephalae) decoction on cellular immunity and Th1/Th2 cytokine ratio in a Mifepristone-induced murine abortion model
Chinese herbal medicine has been used as an anti-abortive treatment in farm animals for thousands of years. To investigate the anti-abortive functions and mechanisms of Bai zhu san (BZS) on mifepristone (RU-486)induced abortion, pregnant mice were allocated to different groups as follows: control group receiving neither RU-486 nor BZS; mice receiving RU-486 only; mice treated with both RU-486 a...
