Bolus propagation in pig ureter in vitro.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pig ureters were made to propagate injected fluid boluses by electrical stimulation in vitro. The propagation velocity was determined from EMG measurements made at several points along the ureter. It was found that this velocity varied both along the ureter and as a function of time, and that it was related to the contraction pressure but not to the bolus size.

Inhibition of human and pig ureter motility in vitro and in vivo by the K(+) channel openers PKF 217-744b and nicorandil.
The relaxing property of the K(+) channel opener and nitric oxide donor nicorandil and the new K(+) channel opener PKF 217-744b was investigated on isolated human ureteral tissue in vitro and in intact ureters of anesthetized pigs in vivo. In addition, nicorandil and its antagonists, glibenclamide and methylene blue, were tested on isolated pig ureter tissue in vitro. Nicorandil decreased the f...
متن کاملActivation of ureter nociceptors by exogenous and endogenous ATP in guinea pig.
This study was conducted to determine whether adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) contributes to nociceptor activity induced by ureter distension. Multifibre recordings of ureter afferents were made using the guinea pig ureter preparation perfused in vitro. Distension of the ureter resulted in an initial rapid and later maintained increase in afferent nerve discharge. Intraluminal application of AT...

Objective In previous studies, the relaxant, anticholinergic (functional antagonism), antihistaminic and its stimulatory effects on b-adrenoceptors of Nigella sativa have been demonstrated on guinea pig tracheal chains. In the present study, the relaxant effects of hydro-ethanolic, macerated aqueous (MA) and lipid-free macerated aqueous (LFMA) extract of Nigella sativa on tracheal chains of gu...

Background: Rosa centifoliais commercially propagated by asexual means but in vitro propagation ensure the production of disease free and healthy plants and browning of explants creates hurdle in their multiplication. Objectives: The aim was to reduce oxidative browning of shoots of R. centifolia in MS medium during in vitro propagation. Materials and Methods: Axillary buds of R. centifolia we...

Borrelia microtti and Borrelia persica are two Iranian strains of spirochetes whose vectors are Ornithodorous tholozani and Ornithodorous erraticus which are responsible for relapsing fever. BSK medium has been used for in vitro culture of other strains of borrelia, although the two mentioned strains could not be successfully cultured in it. We have modified BSK medium by using guinea pig ...
