Major technical progress in the development of computer-based image analysis has made possible the entry of autoradiography and immunohistochemistry into a new era where quantification by densitometry has become easily accessible.... more
Triadimefon is a triazole fungicide that produces hyperactivity in both mice and rats similar to that seen following administration of compounds with catecholaminergic activity (e.g., d-amphetamine). To determine whether the... more
The aim of the study was to evaluate the antiulcer activity of Linum usitatissimum fixed oil against aspirin-, indomethacin-, ethanol-, reserpine-, serotonin- and stress-induced gastric ulceration in rats and histamine-induced gastric... more
Chronic administration of reserpine to rats increases, in sympathetic ganglia and adrenal medulla, the activity of tyrosine hydroxylase (EC 1.14.3.x), the enzyme catalyzing the rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of catecholamines.... more
The study revealed the growth performance, root yield and reserpine content in the root part of R. serpentina and R. tetraphylla under four different treatment regimes (T1,T2, T3, T4). Three types of cutting like root, root-stem junction... more
Harmane, harmine and norharmane are β-carboline compounds which have been referred to as inverse agonists of benzodiazepine receptors. The effect of these compounds on apomorphine-induced licking behavior was studied in rats. Subcutaneous... more

l-DOPA is the most widely used treatment for Parkinson's disease. The anti-parkinsonian and pro-dyskinetic actions of l-DOPA are widely attributed to its conversion, by the enzyme aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC), to dopamine.... more
Effect of methanolic extract of Hibiscus rosa sinensis (100-300 mg/kg) was studied on reserpine-induced orofacial dyskinesia and neurochemical alterations. The rats were treated with intraperitoneal reserpine (1 mg/kg, ip) for 3 days... more
Various factors influencing the performance of a Hadamard transform time-of-flight mass spectrometer (HT-TOFMS) have been investigated. Using a nitrogen corona discharge to produce an ion stream of N 2+, N 3+, and N 4+, it is found for... more
Methylmercury (MeHg) produces significant increases in the spontaneous output of dopamine (DA) from rat striatal tissue. The mechanism through MeHg produces such increase in the extracellular DA levels could be due to increased DA release... more
The results show that this inhibitor only affects the MIC of nalidixic acid, while the MIC of ciprofloxacin did not change. In 45% of the A. baumannii clinical isolates the MIC of nalidixic acid decreased at least eight-fold in the... more
In vivo electroporation (EP) is gaining momentum for drug and gene delivery. In particular, DNA transfer by EP to muscle tissue can lead to highly efficient long-term gene expression. We characterized a vascular effect of in vivo EP and... more
The effects of a previous long-term administration of the mitochondrial toxin 3-nitropropionic acid were studied on an animal model of tardive dyskinesia, i.e., the frequency of spontaneous tongue protrusions in rats repeatedly treated... more
