objective(s) in recent years highly selective cox-2inhibitors were withdrawn from the market because of an increased risk of cardiovascular complications. in this study we were looking for potent compounds with moderate selectivity for cox-2. so, four analogues of 4, 5-diaryl-2-(2-alkylthio-5-imidazolyl) imidazole derivatives were synthesized and their anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive act...

Objective. To estimate an anti-nociceptive and regenerative potential of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells in experimental post-traumatic neuropathy rats. Methods. Neuropathic pain was induced by axotomy technique rat left hind paw (Wistar rats (n=113)). The respective group subjects received ADMSCs dose 1×10<sup>6</sup> cells/kg 2×10<sup>6</sup> into the site sciat...

Hypocretins/orexins are primary excitatory neuropeptides located exclusively in neurons of the lateral hypothalamic area, which send projections to most monoaminergic nuclei. It has been reported that i.c.v. injection of hypocretin 1 (orexin A) enhances wakefulness in rats and mice. The present work was carried out to examine the roles of hypocretins in nociception in mice. The presence of robu...

Background and Objective: Hyperalgesia is one of the marked clinical signs of patients with diabetes mellitus that affects their lifestyle. This study was conducted to assess the anti-nociceptive effect of chronic administration of curcumin in streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats using formalin, hot tail immersion, and paw pressure tests. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 40 male...

Background & Aim: Eugenia caryophyllata well known as Clove is a tree from Myrtaceae family that several parts of this plant traditionally used in dental care as an analgesic. This study aimed to assess the chemical composition, anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive activities of the essential oil extracted from Clove buds. Experimental: The essential oil of Clove buds (EOC) was extr...
