Objective: Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes inflammation, deformity and cell loss. It has been shown that (MO), as herbal medicine, and dexamethasone (DEX) are useful in the prevention of various neurological diseases. The present study evaluated combinational effects of DEX and MO on spinal cord injury.

Methods: Thirty-six adult male rats were randomly divided into intact, sham, control (SCI), MO, hUCBSC, and MO-hUCBSC groups.
Introduction. The primary trauma of spinal cord injury (SCI) results in severe damage to nervous functions. At the cellular level, SCI causes astrogliosis.

At the cellular level, SCI causes astrogliosis, of which glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is a major index.
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the neuroprotective effects of Lavandula angustifolia (Lav) on the repair of spinal cord injuries in Wistar rats.
Objectives: The study attempted to investigate the anti-anxiety activities of Phencyclidine (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl) piperidine, PCP, I) and some of its derivatives (M, F, L, B, S, P) with the elevated-plus maze (EPM) Test.
Material And Methods: Phencyclidine and its derivatives (M, F, L, B, S, P) were administrated intraperitoneally (i.p.
