The additive effect between citalopram and muscimol upon induction of antinociceptive effect in male mice.

Previous investigations have revealed the role of GABAergic and serotonergic systems in the modulation of pain behavior. This research aimed to examine the effects of intracerebroventricular (i.c.

The Effect of Zeolite Zinc on Memory Performance and Hippocampal Cell Death in a Rat Model of Alzheimer's-like Disease Induced by Aβ.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders, characterized by the slow and progressive loss of brain structure and function, primarily affecting older individuals. Evidence has shown that disruption of zinc homeostasis in the brain contributes to synaptic dysfunction, as well as impairments in learning and memory. In this study, we evaluated the effect of zeolite zinc on memory performance and hippocampal cell death in a rat model of Alzheimer's disease (AD) induced by intracerebroventricular administration of Aβ.

Preclinical evidence for the anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects of citicoline and imipramine in the sciatic nerve-ligated mice.

Background: Neuropathic pain is a usual condition followed by nerve injury. Experimental neuropathy is linked with delayed behavioral variations correlated to anxiety and depression behaviors. Imipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant that can diminish anxiety- and depressive-like behaviors.

Synergistic interaction between clonidine and ACPA on the modulation of anxiety-like behaviors in non-acute restraint stress and acute restraint stress conditions.

The present research examined the possible role of α-2 adrenergic receptor drugs (clonidine, selective α-2 adrenergic receptor agonist, and yohimbine, competitive α-2 adrenoreceptor antagonist,) on the effect of arachidonylcyclopropylamide (ACPA), a cannabinoid CB1 receptor agonist, in non-acute restraint stress (NARS) and acute restraint stress (ARS) mice. The animals were unilaterally implanted with a cannula in the left lateral ventricle. ARS was carried out by movement restraint at a period of 4 h.

Anxiolytic- and antidepressive-like effects of harmaline in mice are mediated via histamine H3 receptor blockade.

Many neuropsychiatric disorders can be caused by neurotransmitter dysfunction. Experimental studies have demonstrated that histamine and the harmaline affect physiological processes through interaction with other neurotransmitter systems. The objective of these experiments was to investigate the involvement of the histaminergic system in the effects of harmaline on anxiety- and depressive-related effects in male NMRI mice.
