Beneficial effects of L-arginine against diabetes-induced oxidative stress in gastrointestinal tissues in rats.
Oxidative stress occurs in diabetic patients and experimental models of diabetes. The ability of L-arginine to ameliorate oxidative stress after treatment with alloxan was investigated in rats. Adult male rats were injec...
677C > T and 1298A > C MTHFR polymorphisms affect arechin treatment outcome in rheumatoid arthritis.
Despite the availability of several new agents for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), arechin (hydroxychloroquine) remains the mainstay because of both cost-effectiveness and experience with its use. However, th...
Potential role of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) heterodimerization in neuropsychiatric disorders: a focus on depression.
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent the largest family of membrane proteins in the human genome and are the target of approximately half of all therapeutic drugs. For many years, GPCRs were thought to exist and...
Apoptotic markers in various stages of amygdala kindled seizures in rats.
The aim of the study was to elucidate the relationship between various stages of amygdala kindling in rats and neuronal apoptosis. We used the unbiased method of RNase protection assay (RPA), measuring expression of seve...
Impact of aromatic substitution on the anticonvulsant activity of new N-(4-arylpiperazin-1-yl)-alkyl-2-azaspiro[4,5]decane-1,3-dione derivatives.
A series of N-[(4-arylpiperazin-1-yl)-alkyl]-2-azaspiro[4.5]decane-1,3-dione derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their anticonvulsant and neurotoxic properties. The main modifications to that series of compoun...
