We investigated the effects of the centrally acting antitussives dextromethorphan and cloperastine on urinary bladder dysfunction 24 h after cerebral infarction in rats using the cystometry technique. First, cystometrography was performed in conscious male Sprague-Dawley rats. Cerebral infarction
Opioids are important drugs used as analgesics, antitussives, antidiarrheals, and in the therapy of myocardial infarctions, and as antagonists of opioid intoxication. The glucuronidation of these compounds, catalyzed by UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs), is well known to be a primary step in their
Experimental acute subdural hematoma in the rat has been shown to produce a zone of apparent infarction under the clot, and excitatory amino acid toxicity appears to play a role in the damage observed. We report the effect of dextromethorphan, a commonly used antitussive and a noncompetitive
Clinically, both overactive bladder (OAB) and dysuria are known to occur in patients with cerebral infarction (CI). A few anticholinergic drugs are used to treat OAB in such patients, although the effect is not satisfactory. On the other hand, little or no therapeutic drug is available for dysuria
Dimemorfan, an antitussive and a sigma-1 (sigma(1)) receptor agonist, has been reported to display neuroprotective properties. We set up an animal model of ischemic stroke injury by inducing cerebral ischemia (for 1 h) followed by reperfusion (for 24 h) (CI/R) in rats to examine the protective
