Exposure to acute physical and psychological stress alters the response of rat macrophages to corticosterone, neuropeptide Y and beta-endorphin
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2007)
The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of acute exposure to electric tail shock stress (ES) and a stress witnessing procedure ( SW), as models for physical and psychological stress paradigms, ...
Quantification of Art v 1 and Act c 1 being major allergens of mugwort pollen and kiwi fruit extracts in mass-units by ion-exchange HPLC-UV method
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2007)
A simple ion-exchange HPLC-UV method was developed for determination of major allergens from mugwort pollen and kiwi fruit extracts in mass-units. The separation of Art v 1 and Act c 1 from other components in the extracts ...
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) modulates oxidative burst and nitric oxide production in carrageenan-elicited granulocytes from rat air pouch
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2006)
We studied the effects of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and NPY-related receptor specific peptides on functions of carrageenan-elicited granulocytes in vitro and ability of NPY to modulate carrageenan-induced air pouch inflammation ...
Age-related effect of peptide YY (PYY) on paw edema in the rat: The function of Y1 receptors on inflammatory cells
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2006)
It is well documented that neuropeptides participate in local inflammatory reaction and modulate functions of inflammatory cells. The aim of the study was to determine a link between in vivo and in vitro effects of NPY-related ...
The insulin-like growth factor system in the circulation of patients with viral infections
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, Berlin, 2004)
The insulinlike growth factor (IGF) system was examined in the circulation of patients with viral infections (herpes simplex virus, HSV; cytomegalovirus, CMV; rotavirus, RV and adenovirus, AV). The serum concentrations of ...
Immune responses in nucleus basalis magnocellularis-lesioned rats exposed to chronic isolation stress
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2000)
The present study was designed to establish the influence of chronic social isolation stress on humoral and cellular immunity in nucleus basalis magnocellularis (NBM)-lesioned rats. Therefore, ten days after bilateral ...
Ethanol consumption affecting some brain proteins and cortical plasticity might disturb the neural networks of long-term memory
(IEEE, New York, 2004)
The objective of this study is to investigate whether chronic ethanol consumption include brain damage expressed as; an increase of antibody titer to S-100 and synaptic membrane proteins, additioning of lateral ventricles ...
Beta-endorphin differentially affects inflammation in two inbred rat strains
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2006)
It has been shown that inflammation of rat paws elicits accumulation of opioid peptide is-endorphin-containing immune cells in the inflamed subcutaneous tissue, contributing to immumocyte-produced pain suppression. However, ...
The influence of stress and methionine-enkephalin on macrophage functions in two inbred rat strains
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
The aim of our current study was to investigate the effect of acute exposure to electric tail shock stress (ES) and to a stress witnessing procedure (SW), as models for physical and psychological stress paradigms, respectively, ...
Methionine-enkephalin stimulates hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide production in rat peritoneal macrophages: Interaction of mu, delta and kappa opioid receptors
(Karger, Basel, 2004)
Objective: Methionine-enkephalin ( MET) modulates various functions of macrophages related to both immune and inflammatory reactions in a naloxone reversible manner, suggesting that opioid receptors are involved in the ...
