Biochemical and histological alterations in erythrocytes, liver, kidney and brain of rats fed 30% level of D. juxtaposita fern powder were studied. Significant increase in GSH and decrease in lipid peroxidation, acetyl choline estrase and catalase of RBCs was observed. Significant increase in lipid
We studied the acute effects of transmitter release induced by intracisternal (i.c.) 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) from mainly noradrenergic (NA) neurons and by 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine (5,6-DHT) from serotonergic (5HT) neurons. Each group of neurons affects blood pressure and heart rate in conscious
Based on the gene-related function and molecular structure of various receptors, neurological receptor diseases were reviewed from both the immunologic and genetic perspectives. The nicotinic acetyl-choline receptor (AChR), ryanodine receptor (RyR), omega-conotoxin receptor (P/Q-type voltage-gated
The human auditory system is highly susceptible to environmental and metabolic insults which further affect the biochemical and physiological milieu of the cells that may contribute to progressive, hearing loss with aging. The cochlear nucleus (CN) is populated by morphologically diverse types of
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic disorder that slowly worsens and impairs the person's memory, learning, reasoning, judgment, communication and familiar tasks with loss of orientation. AD is characterized clinically by cognitive deficit and pathologically by the deposition of β amyloid plaques,
OBJECTIVE
To investigate MRI and proton spectroscopy changes in five patients with HIV associated dementia complex (HADC) treated with antiretroviral therapy.
METHODS
Three markers were evaluated: (1) CSF/intracranial volume ratio; (2) T2 weighted signal ratio between parieto-occipital white and
