Influence of individual housing in the adult rats on catecholamine synthesis and storage in the right and left medial prefrontal cortex
(Neurochemical Journal, 2014)
Social isolation produce various neurochemical alterations in monoamines pathways of the brain. In order to assess the effect of individual housing of adult rats on neurochemical substrates and lateralization in the right ...
Immunohistochemical Detection and Gene Expression of Tyrosine Hydroxylase and Vesicular Monoamine Transporter Type 2 in Intrinsic Cardiac Ganglia of Socially Isolated Rats
(Archives of biological sciences, 2014)
Social isolation induced a significant increase in resting heart rate and reduction in heart rate variability. Dysfunction of the intrinsic cardiac nervous system is implicated in the genesis of cardiovascular diseases. ...
The effect of subchronic supplementation with folic acid on homocysteine induced seizures
(Acta Physiologica Hungarica, 2015)
Influence of folic acid on the CNS is still unclear. Folate has a neuroprotective effect, while on the other hand excess folate can exacerbate seizures in epileptics. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect ...
The effects of omega 3 fatty acid supplementation on brain tissue oxidative status in aged wistar rats
(Hippokratia, 2012)
Background: The omega 3 fatty acids play an important role in many physiological processes. Their effect is well documented in neurodegenerative diseases and inflammatory diseases. Also, aging as a biophysiological process ...
Effects of Acute Stress on Gene Expression of Splenic Catecholamine Biosynthetic Enzymes in Chronically Stressed Rats
(Archives of biological sciences, 2013)
The aim of this study was to examine how acute immobilization stress affects the concentrations of catecholamines in the plasma and the expression of the splenic catecholamine biosynthetic enzymes tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), ...
Different Sensitivity of Various Brain Structures to Thioacetamide-Induced Lipid Peroxidation
(Medicinal Chemistry, 2012)
Thioacetamide (TAA) exerts hepatotoxic, neurotoxic and carcinogenic effects. The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of TAA on lipid peroxidation and catalase activity in various rat brain regions. Male Wistar ...
The effect of subchronic supplementation with folic acid and L-arginine on homocysteine-induced seizures
(Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 2016)
The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of subchronic co-administration of folic acid (F) and L-arginine (A) on behavioural and electroencephalographic (EEG) characteristics of DL homocysteine thiolactone ...
Spectral analysis of thioacetamide-induced electroencephalographic changes in rats
(Human and Experimental Toxicology, 2013)
Thioacetamide (TAA) is widely used as a model of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of TAA on electroencephalographic (EEG) changes in rats and to compare them with human HE. ...
The efficacy of hydrothermally obtained carbonated hydroxyapatite in healing alveolar bone defects in rats with or without corticosteroid treatment
(Vojnosanitetski pregled, 2014)
Background/Aim. Autogenous bone grafting has been the gold standard in clinical cases when bone grafts are required for bone defects in dentistry. The study was undertaken to evaluate multilevel designed carbonated ...
Hypothalamic noradrenaline synthesis, uptake and storage in rats during adaptation to long-term individual housing
(Neurochemical Journal, 2013)
The brain monoamine systems play a crucial role in mediating social behaviors. In order to assess the effect of socially isolated rats on neurochemical substrates in hypothalamus we measured levels of tyrosine hydroxylase ...
