Selective 5HT3 antagonists and sensory processing: a systematic review.

Ondansetron is a selective serotonin (5HT3) receptor antagonist that is under evaluation as an adjunctive treatment for schizophrenia, and a novel treatment for hallucinations in Parkinson's disease. Ondansetron reverses sensory gating deficits and improves visuoperceptual processing in animal models of psychosis, but it is unclear to what extent preclinical findings have been replicated in humans. We systematically reviewed human studies that evaluated the effects of ondansetron and other 5HT3 receptor antagonists on sensory gating deficits or sensory processing.

Methodological approaches for producing doubled haploids in sugar beet and red beet (Beta vulgaris L.).

The in vitro production of doubled haploids is a biotechnological path of an accelerated development of parental lines in F1-hybrid breeding programs. Unlike the traditional inbreeding method requiring 5 to 6 generations to reach a suf-f icient homozygosity of lines, the number of generations to produce pure lines of beet by haploid technologies is reduced to 2. The production of doubled haploids by gynogenesis is the most common biotechnological approach in sugar and red beets.

EFFECT OF 2,6-DIMETHYLPYRIDINE-N-OXIDE ON THE SEVERITY OF CYTOGENETIC EFFECTS INDUCED BY DIOXIDINE IN BONE MARROW CELLS OF MICE.

Objective - to study the ability of 2,6-dimethylpyridine-N-oxide to modify the cytogenetic effects in mouse bone marrow cells caused by the pro-oxidant mutagen Dioxidine. The cytogenetic activity and mutagen-modifying effect of the plant growth regulator 2,6-dimethylpyridine-N-oxide (Ivin) were studied by the method of accounting for chromosomal aberrations in the bone marrow cells of CD-1 mice (males) with a single joint exposure with Dioxidine. Ivin was administered single orally in the form of an aqueous solution at doses of 710, 71, and 0.

[; INFLUENCE OF N-OXIDE-2,6-DIMETHYLPYRIDINE ON THE EXPRESSION OF CYTOGENETIC EFFECTS INDUCED BY CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE IN MOUSE BONE MARROW CELL].

Objective - to study the ability of N-oxide-2,6-dimethylpyridine to modify the cytogenetic effects in mouse bone marrow cells caused by an alkylating antitumor cytostatic cyclophosphamide.; The cytogenetic activity and mutagen-modifying effect of the plant growth regulator N-oxide-2,6-dimethylpyridine (Ivin) were studied by the method of accounting for chromosomal aberrations in the bone marrow cells of CD-1 mice (males) with a single joint exposure to cyclophosphamide. In the first variant of the research, Ivin was administered single orally in the form of an aqueous solution at doses of 710, 71, 7.
