[ 1 ] - Effects of intracerebroventricular injection of vitamin B12 on formalin-induced muscle pain in rats: Role of cyclooxygenase pathway and opioid receptors
Vitamin B12 modulates pain at the local and peripheral levels. This study has investigated the effects of intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of vitamin B12 on themuscle pain. We used diclofenac (cyclooxygenase inhibitor) and naloxone (opioid receptors antagonist) to clarify the possible mechanisms. For ICV injections, a guide cannula was implanted in the left lateral ...
[ 2 ] - Effect of Curcumin, an Active Substance of Turmeric, on Acute Hyperglycemia Induced by Ketamine-Xylazine: Role of α2-Adrenergic Receptor
Objective- Medicinal plants and their active constituents are frequently used components for treating hyperglycemia. In the present study, the effect of curcumin was investigated on acute hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia induced by ketamine-xylazine in rats. To explore the possible mechanism, yohimbine (an α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist) was also used. Design...
