cannabinoids induce diverse responses on anxiolytic–like behaviors. moreover some studies postulated that there is a close relationship between this system and serotonergic system upon cognitive process formation. thus the aim of present study is investigation the possible role of 5-ht 1 receptor on anxiolytic–like behaviors induced by acpa in the elevated plus maze task (epm). in the present s...

estrogen (e2) has neuroprotective effects on blood-brain-barrier (bbb) after traumatic brain injury (tbi). in order to investigate the roles of estrogen receptors (ers) in these kind of effects, er-α antagonist (mpp) and, er-β antagonist (phtpp), or non-selective estrogen receptors antagonist (ici 182780) were administered as regulators of cns cytokines levels and neuroinflammation after tbi. m...

background and purpose: the clinical outcome of intrauterine insemination (iui) treatment cycles employing a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist [superfact)] or human chorionic gonadotrophin (hcg) for ovulation induction was compared. materials and methods: a group of 100 patients presenting with amenorrhoea, oligomenorrhoea or unexplained infertility were all treated with clomiphene 100 mg...

Background and Objective: It has been shown that the opioidergic system exerts widespread effects on cognitive functions. Interactions between opioid and serotonin receptors have been reported in some brain structures such as the dorsal hippocampus, thus a functional interaction between opioids and serotonin seems possible concerning memory control. The purpose of this study was to assess the e...
