Conditioned place preference produced by the psychostimulant cathinone.

Previous work has indicated that the psychostimulant cathinone produces a location preference in the conditioned place preference task. The present study expanded upon this earlier work by examining the dose-response nature of cathinone-induced…

Comparison of the behavioral effects of ibogaine from three sources: mediation of discriminative activity.

Ibogaine is an alkaloid employed for its hallucinatory properties in West Central Africa which has been the subject of alleged efficacy as an aid in the interruption and treatment of chemical dependency. The major sources of the Schedule I agent are:…

Chemopreventive doses of resveratrol do not produce cardiotoxicity in a rodent model of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), one of the most lethal cancers, results in more than one million fatalities worldwide every year. In view of the limited therapeutic alternatives and poor prognosis of liver cancer, preventive control approaches,…

Rotenone produces opposite effects upon mouse striatal dopamine function as a result of environmental temperature.

Rotenone is a commonly used pesticide that can function as an environmental neurotoxin. Rotenone is a known mitochondrial complex I inhibitor which can lead to oxidative stress and results in dopaminergic cell death. Another environmental factor…

The discriminative properties of the D1 dopamine agonist dihydrexidine in the rat.

The objective of this study was to train rats to discriminate the interoceptive stimuli produced by a selective dopamine D1 agonist. Fourteen male Sprague-Dawley rats acquired the discrimination of the fully effective, high potency, D1 agonist…

Differences in response to the aversive properties and activity effects of low dose ethanol in LAS and HAS selectively bred rats.

Rats selectively bred for high alcohol sleep times (HAS) and those that are less affected (LAS) by hypnotic doses (3.0-3.6 g/kg) of ethanol were tested for differential responses to the aversive effects of 1.0 g/kg ethanol in a conditioned place…

The effect of immediate intraperitoneal carboplatinum on wound healing.

The effect of introducing intraperitoneal carboplatinum on wound healing immediately after wound closure was studied using a rat model. All animals were opened through a midline incision. A bowel anastomosis was then performed in a single-or…

The effect of GDNF on nigrostriatal dopaminergic function in response to a two-pulse K(+) stimulation.

We examined the effect of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) upon nigrostriatal dopaminergic function in response to two-pulse potassium (K(+)) stimulation in rats under in vivo microdialysis conditions. The two-pulse infusion…

Pertubation of beta1 integrin function using anti-sense or function-blocking antibodies on corneal cells grown on fibronectin and tenascin.

During corneal development, neural crest derivatives from the periocular mesenchyme migrate into the cornea and differentiate into corneal fibroblasts. During this time, these cells interact with a variety of extracellular matrices for proper…

The presence of extracellular matrix alters the chondrocyte response to endoplasmic reticulum stress.

The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that extracellular matrix (ECM) would alter the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response of chondrocytes. Chondrocytes were isolated from calf knees and maintained in monolayer culture or…

Phase II study of gefitinib in patients with advanced salivary gland cancers.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to determine the antitumor activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor gefitinib in patients with recurrent/metastatic salivary gland cancer. METHODS: We conducted a phase II study in…

Effect of a standardized pharyngitis treatment protocol on use of antibiotics in a pediatric emergency department.

BACKGROUND: Pharyngitis is a common complaint in pediatric patients. If clinical parameters are used alone, bacterial pathogens will be wrongly implicated in many cases. A nonstandardized approach to the treatment of children with pharyngitis in an…
