Interaction between hyperthermia and oxygen radical formation in the 5-hydroxytryptaminergic response to a single methamphetamine administration.

Only registered users can translate articles

Administration of a single high dose of methamphetamine (METH) causes a rapid and reversible decrease in the activity of the tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH), the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of 5-hydroxytryptamine. This effect can be reversed completely by exposing the METH-impaired enzyme to

Lipopolysaccharide- and glutamate-induced hypothalamic hydroxyl radical elevation and fever can be suppressed by N-methyl-D-aspartate-receptor antagonists.

The purpose of the current study was to explore the effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-receptor antagonists (MK-801 and LY235959) administered intracerebroventricularly on the changes of both core temperature and hypothalamic levels of 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,3-DHBA) induced by

An NMDA receptor-dependent hydroxyl radical pathway in the rabbit hypothalamus may mediate lipopolysaccharide fever.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of antioxidants (e.g. alpha-lipoic acid and N-acetyl-L-cysteine) as well as N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists (e.g. MK-801 and LY235959) on the changes of both core temperature and hypothalamic levels of 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid

In vivo evidence against clomethiazole being neuroprotective against MDMA ('ecstasy')-induced degeneration of rat brain 5-HT nerve terminals by a free radical scavenging mechanism.

Only registered users can translate articles

Clomethiazole is an effective neuroprotective agent against the degeneration of 5-HT neurones that follows administration of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA or 'ecstasy'). Since there is good evidence that free radical formation resulting from auto-oxidation of MDMA metabolites is

Melatonin reduces acute lung inflammation, edema, and hemorrhage in heatstroke rats.

OBJECTIVE To assess the therapeutic effect of melatonin on heat-induced acute lung inflammation and injury in rats. METHODS Heatstroke was induced by exposing anesthetized rats to heat stress (36 °C, 100 min). Rats were treated with vehicle or melatonin (0.2, 1, 5 mg/kg) by intravenous

Lack of increased oxidative stress in catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT)-deficient mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effect of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) deficiency on methamphetamine-induced hydroxyl radical production in the brain was assessed by the salicylate trapping method. Methamphetamine-induced hyperthermia was also studied. Furthermore, the effect of COMT deficiency on the activities of

Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist restores homeostatic function and limits multiorgan damage in heatstroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

We attempt to investigate whether interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) therapy improves survival during heatstroke by attenuating multiorgan dysfunction. Anesthetized rabbits, immediately after the onset of heatstroke, are divided into three major groups and given: nothing, normal saline (1

Methamphetamine-induced striatal dopamine release, behavior changes and neurotoxicity in BALB/c mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

The behaviors associated with the neurotoxic effects of methamphetamine were evaluated in BALB/c mice. Hyperthermia and behavioral observations were measured 60 min after each subcutaneous injection of methamphetamine (4x4 or 8 mg/kg) or saline, each given 2 h apart. The behavioral observations

Antinociceptive and Anxiolytic and Sedative Effects of Methanol Extract of Anisomeles indica: An Experimental Assessment in Mice and Computer Aided Models.

Only registered users can translate articles

Anisomeles indica (L.) kuntze is widely used in folk medicine against various disorders including allergy, sores, inflammation, and fever. This research investigated the antinociceptive, anxiolytic and sedative effects of A. indica methanol extract. The antinociceptive activity was assessed with the

Ascorbic acid prevents 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA)-induced hydroxyl radical formation and the behavioral and neurochemical consequences of the depletion of brain 5-HT.

Only registered users can translate articles

MDMA-induced 5-HT neurotoxicity has been proposed to involve oxidative stress due to increased formation of hydroxyl radicals. Recently, MDMA-induced 5-HT neurotoxicity has been shown to be accompanied by a suppression of behavioral and neurochemical responses to a subsequent injection of MDMA. The

Brain temperature alters hydroxyl radical production during cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Selective neuronal cell death in the CA1 pyramidal cells of the hippocampus and neurons of the dorsolateral striatum as a consequence of brain ischemia/reperfusion (IR) can be ameliorated with brain hypothermia. Since postischemic injury is mediated partially by chemical production of reactive

A study of the mechanisms involved in the neurotoxic action of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, 'ecstasy') on dopamine neurones in mouse brain.

Only registered users can translate articles

1. Administration of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, 'ecstasy') to mice produces acute hyperthermia and long-term degeneration of striatal dopamine nerve terminals. Attenuation of the hyperthermia decreases the neurodegeneration. We have investigated the mechanisms involved in producing the

Studies on the role of dopamine in the degeneration of 5-HT nerve endings in the brain of Dark Agouti rats following 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA or 'ecstasy') administration.

1. We investigated whether dopamine plays a role in the neurodegeneration of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) nerve endings occurring in Dark Agouti rat brain after 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA or 'ecstasy') administration. 2. Haloperidol (2 mg kg(-1) i.p.) injected 5 min prior and 55 min post

The flavonoid baicalin protects against cerebrovascular dysfunction and brain inflammation in experimental heatstroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study was performed to assess the prophylactic effect of baicalin, a flavonoid compound, in an animal model of heatstroke. Anesthetized rats, immediately before the start of heat stress, were divided into two major groups and given the following: vehicle solution (1mL per kg body weight)
