The contributions of inflammatory and immunosuppressive cytokines and noradrenalin to the control of lipolysis in adipocytes surrounding and remote from lymph nodes were investigated in healthy adult guinea-pigs. A few hours after excision from fasting animals, spontaneous lipolysis in adipocytes
Neuropeptide W (NPW) is an endogenous ligand for GPR7, a member of the G-protein-coupled receptor family. NPW plays an important role in the regulation of both feeding and energy metabolism, and is also implicated in modulating responses to an acute inflammatory pain through activation of the
Pharmacoangiography has not yet become a routine method to differentiate inflammatory and tumorous processes of the lower extremities. Noradrenalin and Vasoxin was compared in its effect on the peripheral blood vessels in inflammatory and tumourous disease.
Neurogenic inflammation is a reaction which includes vasodilation, plasma extravasation, and smooth muscle contraction elicited by activation of and release of mediators from unmyelinated afferent nerve endings. Further release of inflammatory mediators follows activation of axon collaterals
BACKGROUND
Obesity is the world's most important public health problem. Adipose tissue contributes significantly to increase pro-inflammatory mediators whose cascade begins with the union of TLR4 to its microbial ligands (TLR: Toll Like Receptors). It has been reported recently that NEFAs
BACKGROUND
The traditional neurotransmitter catecholamine and the neuropeptide tyrosine in sympathetic airway nerves have been proposed to be involved in the pathogenesis of airway diseases.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of allergic airway inflammation on the
The noradrenaline stimulus has two components, one excitor, the other inhibitory. Neuronal noradrenaline is the excitor component and plasma noradrenaline is the inhibitory. The balance of effect between the two, the noradrenergic balance, is the controlled variable of the sympathetic system and
Cytokines may influence brain activities especially during stressful conditions, and elevated levels of IL-6 and C-reactive protein have been pointed out in subjects with Major Depression. If pro-inflammatory cytokines play a causative role in major depressive disorders, one would expect that
OBJECTIVE
The mechanisms by which low oxygen availability are associated with the development of insulin resistance remain obscure. We thus investigated the relationship between such gluco-insular derangements in response to sustained (hypobaric) hypoxemia, and changes in biomarkers of oxidative
Three common dosing regimens of the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced model of Parkinson's disease (PD) were compared in C57BL/6 mice on behavior, striatal and extra-striatal neurotransmission, and brain cytokines, to clarify the differences between regimens on these
The Ramadan fasting (RF) period is associated with changes in sleep habits and increased sleepiness, which may affect physical performance in athletes, and may induce metabolic, hormonal, and inflammatory disturbances. In 8 middle-distance athletes (25.0 +/- 1.3 years), a maximal aerobic velocity
Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) is a highly lethal disorder requiring open or endovascular TAAA repair, both of which are rare, but extensive and complex surgical procedures associated with a significant systemic inflammatory response and high post-operative morbidity and mortality.
OBJECTIVE
We prospectively compared the systemic immune and stress response of patients who underwent laparoscopic total nephrectomy (LRN) (14) and open nephrectomy (ON) (10) for renal cell carcinoma. The ON group comprised open radical (4), open total (2) and open partial (4) nephrectomy
Albiflorin (AF), separated from the root of Paeonia lactiflora Pall, possesses neuro-protective and anti-inflammatory activities. Based on previous results, our present research aims to investigate the antidepressant-like activity of AF in chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS)-induced rat model
A 52-year-old woman had been prescribed oral medication of acetaminophen, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and oxycodone for intractable pain associated with thoracic metastasis of breast cancer. However, the pain control was poor. Although pregabalin and gabapentin were used as
