A randomized prospective clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the potential utility of adding transdermal scopolamine to a standard regimen of metoclopramide and dexamethasone for the prevention of cisplatin-induced emesis. Thirty-one patients who were about to receive their first cycle of

OBJECTIVE To determine the efficacy of transdermal scopolamine in addition to ondansetron in decreasing the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). METHODS Randomized controlled trial. METHODS Academic hospital. METHODS 126 ASA physical status I and II patients undergoing outpatient

The present study of coherence analysis, in 16 healthy male volunteers, aged 24-31 years, showed that the administration of 0.25 mg of scopolamine significantly reduced interhemispheric coherence in the delta and beta-1 bands in the resting state. Scopolamine also caused a significant increase both

The efficacy of the subchronically administered cholinesterase-inhibitor physostigmine (PHY) (0.025 mg/kg/h) either with or without the muscarinergic receptor antagonist scopolamine (SCO) (0.018 mg/kg/h) in counteracting soman-induced lethality and incapacitation were determined in guinea pigs. This

BACKGROUND Several halogenated analogs of benztropine (BZT) have previously been characterized as potent dopamine (DA) uptake inhibitors with diminished reinforcing effects relative to cocaine. In addition to their effects on DA uptake, these compounds are potent muscarinic cholinergic

The effects of a novel prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) inhibitor KYP-2047 on spatial memory of young (3-month-old) and old (8- to 9-month-old) scopolamine-treated rats (0.4 mg/kg intraperitoneally) was investigated in the Morris water maze. In addition, the concentrations of promnesic neuropeptide

We examined the ameliorating effects of several sigma receptor agonists on scopolamine-induced memory impairment in mice. Scopolamine was administered IP 30 min before the training session. Each sigma receptor agonist was administered 60 min before or immediately after the training session, or 60

Stigmasterol, a kind of phytosterol, is present in small amounts in various foods. In the present study, we investigated the effects of stigmasterol on scopolamine-induced memory impairments using the passive avoidance and the Morris water maze tasks in mice. In addition, changes in memory-related

The intraperitoneal administration of the octapeptide somatostatin analogue SMS 201-995 produced a significant increase in paradoxical sleep (PS) in rats. The suppression of PS by the muscarinic receptor blocker scopolamine was reversed by SMS 201-995. These findings confirm previous results

Spinosin is a C-glycoside flavonoid isolated from the seeds of Zizyphus jujuba var. spinosa. This study investigated the effect of spinosin on cholinergic blockade-induced memory impairment in mice. Behavioral tests were conducted using the passive avoidance, Y-maze, and Morris water maze tasks to

Allylguaiacol is a phytochemical occurring in various plants such as cloves, cinnamon, basil, and nutmeg. Pharmacological effects of allylguaiacol include antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antioxidant, and neuroprotective activity. Although allylguaiacol is considered to have

BACKGROUND Atropine (Atr) and scopolamine (Scp) are toxic secondary plant metabolites of species within the Solanaceae genus that can accidentally or intentionally reach the food store chain by inaccurate harvesting of any plant material, e.g. for herbal tea infusions. Ingestion may cause severe

BACKGROUND Increasing cardiovascular parasympathetic nervous activity could have antihypertensive effects. Low-dose transdermal scopolamine increases vagal-cardiac modulation of sinus node and baroreflex sensitivity in healthy subjects and in cardiac patients. OBJECTIVE To study the short-term

In the present study, we investigated the effects of microinjection of vitamin B12 into the hippocampus on the orofacial pain and memory impairments induced by scopolamine and orofacial pain. In ketamine-xylazine anesthetized rats, the right and left sides of the dorsal hippocampus (CA1) were
