We examined the effect of glycyrrhetinic acid (Ia) and its derivatives on ear edema induced by topical application of capsaicin in mice. Three dihemiphthalate compounds: di-sodium salt of 18 beta-olean-12-ene-3 beta,30-diol (deoxoglycyrrhetol, IIa) di-O-hemiphthalate (IIb); 18
Previous studies have investigated the short-term effect of capsaicin on edema formation and goblet-cell secretion in the trachea. The present study sought to investigate the long-term effect of a high dose of capsaicin (90 micro g/ml/kg), administered intravenously, on changes in the formation of
This study was undertaken to evaluate the role of vagal nerves in the development of neurogenic pulmonary edema. We injected fibrinogen and thrombin into the cisterna magna of rats, a model of neurogenic pulmonary edema. When the vagal nerves were left intact, pulmonary edema occurred
The frequent occurrence of acute death from pulmonary failure in experimental head injury studies on Sprague-Dawley rats prompted an investigation into the manner in which acute neurogenic pulmonary edema develops in these animals as a result of an applied fluid pressure pulse to the cerebral
The beta 2-adrenergic agonist formoterol has been shown to inhibit plasma extravasation in the respiratory mucosa associated with neurogenic inflammation as well as that caused by histamine or bradykinin. It is unknown whether these effects of formoterol are mediated through an action of sensory
Neurogenic inflammation, includes vasodilation, the increase of vasal permeability and edema due to the release of neuromediators from nerve endings. A modulation of the release of neurotransmitters, from nerve endings and neurogenic inflammation related phenomena, was observed with the
We investigated the involvement of serotonin (5-HT) in mouse ear edema induced by topical application of capsaicin (250 micrograms/ear). Application of capsaicin to the ear caused degranulation of mast cells in skin connective tissue. Capsaicin-induced ear edema was significantly inhibited by
The diterpene, 12-acetoxyhawtriwaic acid lactone (AHAL, tanabalin) isolated from the flower buds of Egletes viscosa Less. (Asteraceae) was evaluated on capsaicin-induced ear edema and hindpaw nociception in mice. AHAL (12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg, P. O.) significantly attenuated the ear edema response to
Histamine is known to cause edema and excitation of small-diameter primary afferent neurons. In the present study we wanted to investigate to which extent afferent neurons participate in histamine-induced edema and, subsequently, determine possible inhibitory effects of a tachykinin NK1 receptor and
The Authors have explored a new complementary approach, employed in the last 40 years for, among other uses, medical purposes: oxygen-ozone therapy. Anecdotal works have highlighted interesting results obtained in disk herniation with infiltration of paravertebral muscles with oxygen-ozone. To
The role of capsaicin-sensitive primary afferent fibers in rat pain-related behaviors and paw edema induced by scorpion Buthus martensi Karch (BmK) venom was investigated in this study. It was found that functional depletion of capsaicin-sensitive primary afferent fibers with a single systemic
The formation of acute edema in the tracheobronchial mucosa following local instillation of hydrochloric acid or gastric juice was studied in rats. Protein extravasation using the Evans blue technique was measured and used to indicate edema formation. A pH dependent Evans blue extravasation was
Sciatic section in rats evokes chronic hyperalgesia, autotomy pain behavior, and hindpaw edema, a constellation resembling complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) in man. Glucocorticoid treatment inhibits these sequelae of sciatic section and also blocks neurogenic extravasation. Small diameter
Capsaicin, which causes release of neuropeptides including substance P, has been shown to cause dose-related increases in cochlear blood flow (CBF). Since CBF regulation is altered in animal models with endolymphatic hydrops, this study was designed to examine the effect of hydrops on
The present study, performed in nonsedated, conscious lambs, consisted of two parts. In the first part, we 1) examined for the first time whether a respiratory response to pulmonary C-fiber stimulation could be elicited in nonsedated newborns and 2) determined whether this response could be
