Celecoxib has Preventive and Therapeutic Benefits against
Nephrotoxicity Caused by Gentamicin in Mice
Drug Res (Stuttg) DOI: 10.1055/a-1785-4005It’s crucial to comprehend the impact of oxidative stress and
pro-inflammatory cytokines in the gentamicin-induced kidney injury mechanism.
Celecoxib was administered orally either before or after intraperitoneal therapy
with gentamicin in mice. The serum levels of creatinine (SCr), blood urea
nitrogen (BUN), IL-6, and TNF-α were measured by ELISA test, as well as
the levels of the kidney tissue malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH)
were also estimated spectrophotometrically. The renal expression of nuclear
...

tuberculosis was developed in RIBSP CS MES RK and SRII. The vaccine is based on
the attenuated influenza strain Flu NS106/ESAT-6_Ag85A
expressing mycobacterial antigens Esat-6 and Ag85A. This research aimed to
conduct pre-clinical safety studies of the vaccine as one of the basic and
mandatory stages in the development and introduction of immunobiological
preparations. The studies were performed at the research centers of the Republic

Decipher the inhibitory potential of phytocompounds from
Leptadenia reticulata
on dopamine D2 receptor to enhance
prolactin secretion
Drug Res (Stuttg) DOI: 10.1055/a-1735-2887Dopamine is secreted by the hypothalamus, which inhibits the proliferation and
effectiveness of lactotroph cells that release prolactin via dopamine D2
receptor (D2R). D2R activation inhibits lactotroph cell prolactin synthesis and
regulates prolactin gene expression. Although, commercial medications are
available for hypogalactia and agalactia, various plant sources significantly
alleviate these problems. Leptadenia reticulata (Jivanti) is one of the
important medicinal plants often consumed by nursing mothers to improve ...

Toxicity of Hydrogen Sulfide on Rat Brain Neurons
This study investigated the mechanisms of cytotoxicity induced by
H2S in brain neurons. thioacetamide has been used to produce
H2S in water solutions. The results of the study showed that
thioacetamide at concentrations of 116, 232 and
464 µg/ml was able to increase the level of reactive
oxygen species (ROS), collapse in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), damage
to the lysosomal membrane, increase in the level of oxidized glutathione (GSSG)
and decrease in the level of reduced glutathione (GSH) in brain neurons. The
results of the s...

Repercussion of cAMP and EPAC in Memory and Signaling
Drug Res (Stuttg) DOI: 10.1055/a-1657-2464It is well recognized that cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling within
neurons plays a key role in the foundation of long-term memories. Memory storage
is the process that demands the movement of signals, neural plasticity, and the
molecules which can transfer the signals from the sensory neuron to the dorsal
root ganglion (DRG) neurons and later into the temporal region of the brain. The
discovery of cAMP in 1958 as the second messenger also had a role in memory
formation and other neural aspects. Further, in 1...

Assessment of Sumatriptan on Sepsis-Induced Kidney injury in the
Cecal Ligation and Puncture Mice Model
This study was aimed to assess
the effects of sumatriptan on kidney injury, the levels of pro-inflammatory
cytokines and the percentage of survival in (CLP)-induced sepsis were
examined.Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model was done on adult C57BL/6 male
mice to induce Polymicrobial sepsis. Sumatriptan was injected intraperitoneally
1 h after the sepsis induction by CLP at doses of 0.1, 0.3, and
1 mg/kg in 3 treatment groups. To study the effect of
sumatriptan on short-term survival, septic animals were detected 72 h
after CLP. Serum le...
