noradrenaline/zea mays

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of low and high doses of estradiol, and of progesterone on the response to noradrenaline in rat thoracic aorta. Two weeks after bilateral ovariectomy, female rats received a s.c. injection of vehicle (corn oil, 0.1 mL/day), estradiol (10

The effects of extra virgin olive oil (EV-olive oil) on triglyceride metabolism were investigated by measuring the degree of thermogenesis in interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT) and the rates of noradrenaline and adrenaline secretions in rats, both in vivo and in situ. In Experiment 1 (in

We investigated the effects of corn oil stimuli in the oral cavity on monoaminergic neurones by measuring the amount of monoamines and their metabolites in brains of mice. Intraoral injection of corn oil (0.1 ml) increased dopamine (DA) turnover rate in the cortex 3, 5 and 10 min after injection in

The synthetic pyrethroid insecticide, cypermethrin (50 mg/Kg) was given during gestation to pregnant rats by gavage in corn oil. Prenatal cypermethrin-exposure induces a marked and long-lasting increase of adrenaline (A) and noradrenaline (NA) plasma concentrations. The enhancement of plasma

This study investigates the relationship between dietary fat and ion transport in rat intestine. Animals were fed isocaloric diets with high fat content as corn oil, evening primrose oil (Efamol), fish oil, Efamol/fish oil, olive oil, coconut oil, and butter. A low-fat (corn oil) diet was used in a

1. Western diets high in saturated fat are associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases. In this study we have evaluated vascular endothelial function and oxidative stress in virgin rats fed a normal (VC) or high in saturated fat diet (VHF) (20 % lard and corn oil w/w) from

A fish oil diet has been shown to lower systemic blood pressure in man and alter vascular reactivity to exogenous noradrenaline in man and rats. The effects of a fish oil diet on the vascular reactivity of the pulmonary circulation have not been assessed. The effect of dietary lipid composition on

Transplanted patients frequently present erectile impotence. In order to test any interference by cyclosporine A (CsA), which is commonly used in the post-transplantation management, we investigated the in vitro contractile and relaxant responses of corpus cavernosum and aorta from rabbits

In rats with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) induced by estradiol valerate (EV) injection, sectioning of the vagus nerve in the juvenile stage restores ovulatory function, suggesting that the vagus nerve stimulates the onset and development of PCOS. We analyzed whether in adult rats, the role
