Exposure to ethanol and tobacco smoke in relation to level of PCNA antigen expression in pancreatic and hepatic rat cells.
Journal Title: Pharmacological Reports - Year 2013, Vol 65, Issue 4
Abstract
Previous results proved that simultaneous effect of tobacco smoke constituents and alcohol consumption may change toxicity of these substances and have a greater effect on hepatic and pancreatic disease and cancer risk. The aim of this study was to investigate hepatocyte and pancreatic cells regeneration after tobacco and/or ethanol treatment.

Effects of different priming doses of fentanyl on fentanyl-induced cough: a double-blind, randomized, controlled study.
Background: Fentanyl-induced cough is not an uncommon phenomenon during the induction of general anesthesia. A preliminary randomized controlled study was designed to observe the effects of different priming doses of fen...
Some dopaminergic genes polymorphisms are not associated with response to antipsychotic drugs in schizophrenic patients.
Background: Therapeutic effects of all clinically used antipsychotics are related to the reduction of dopaminergic transmission in the limbic system. The aim of present study was two-fold. First, efficacy of atypical dru...
Raloxifene similarly affects the skeletal system of male and ovariectomized female rats.
Raloxifene, a selective estrogen receptor modulator, is used for prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Raloxifene use in male subjects is increasingly considered and a few clinical studies of...
Concomitant use of carbamazepine and olanzapine and the effect on some behavioral functions in rats.
As shown in clinical studies, combinations of first generation normothymics (carbamazepine - CBZ) with atypical neuroleptics (olanzapine - OLA) lead to improvements in approximately half of patients treated for relapses...
Differential effects of glycine on the anticonvulsant activity of D-cycloserine and L-701,324 in mice.
The anticonvulsant effects of D-cycloserine, which is a partial agonist of the glycine/N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, and L-701,324, which is a selective and potent antagonist that acts at the glycine site, were s...
