Abstract Introduction: Matrix metalloproteinase 2 is one of the inflammatory mediators that is involved in nociceptive processing and its production is regulated by many inflammatory factors such as nitric oxide. We studied the role of MMP-2 on the analgesic effects of nNOS inhibitor. Methods: Considering that nitric oxide has many roles in pain processing, we studied the CSF levels of MMP-2 ...

Previous experimental and theoretical studies have produced high-resolution descriptions of the native and folding transition states of chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 (CI2). In similar fashion, here we use a combination of NMR experiments and molecular dynamics simulations to examine the conformations populated by CI2 in the denatured state. The denatured state is highly unfolded, but there is some r...

abstract background and objective: highly active antiretroviral therapy (haart) can effectively prevent the progression of hiv-1 replication and increase life expectancy. there are numerous causes of treatment failure and the leading one is drug resistance. thus, we aimed to determine the hiv rt gene drug resistance mutations in patients treated with antiretroviral medications. material and met...

objective: diabetes plays an important role in the progression of tissue damage. influencing factors of the cellular matrix can lead to changes in the structure and function of tissues or their failure. herbal consumption can be effective in reducing tissue failure. the aim of the this study is to research the effect portulaca oleracea seeds on the levels of matrix metalloproteinase 2, 9 and ti...

the aim of this research was to investigate the cyclooxygenase-2 (cox-2) selective inhibition effect on haloperidol-induced catatonia. in this study, the effect of orally, acutely and sub-chronically administrations of compound 11b [1-(phenyl)-5-(4-methylsulfonylphenyl)-2-ethylthioimidazole] (2, 4 and 8 mg/kg), a newly selective cox-2 inhibitor, was investigated against the haloperidol-induced ...
