The adrenals, although discovered as early as 1564, were not known to have any function until the classical work of Addison in 1855. Since then, however, these glands have been the object of intensive research and the mass of literature collected up to date is simply overwhelming. In the present volume, the author has made a successful attempt to analyse the great accumulation of literature, to...

Talinolol is a beta1-selective adreno receptor antagonist well known for its Cardio protective and antihypertensive activity. beta blocker. In biopharmaceutical classification system the drugs which come under class II are characterized by more membrane permeability, less dissolution rate. poor aqueous solubility drug leads to bioavailability. So, aimed of this study was develop immediate relea...

26 27 We have recently demonstrated a strong synergy between muscarinic and 28 adrenergic excitatory pathways in the trigone which, as part of the bladder base, 29 plays a key role in outflow control. This study aimed to characterise the role of 30 intracellular Ca, [Ca]i, in this synergistic effect. Muscle strips from the superficial 31 trigone of male guinea-pigs were used for tension experim...

Background. Earlier we showed that the Ukrainian phytocomposition “Balm Truskavets’” exerts immediate modulating effects on parameters of EEG and HRV as well biophotonics. In a pilot study 10 volunteers, found use for 11 days causes changes in EEGs accompanied by sympatho(adreno)mimetic effect. The EEG&HRV are combined with biophotonics parameters. This was conducted four times larger cohor...
