Animal Models of Stress - Current Knowledge and Potential Directions
2021
Finding new therapies and new antidepressant agents is of high clinical priority given that many cases of depressive disorder do not respond to conventional monoaminergic antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, and monoamine oxidase inhibitors The authors demonstrated that electroacupuncture and fluoxetine, a second-generation antidepressant categorized as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (Perez-Caballero et al , 2014), regulate the expression of key proteins in the calmodulin kinase (CAMK) signaling pathway, which are related to depression in the hippocampi of rats (Takemoto-Kimura et al , 2017;Xie et al , 2019) In a paper on “Sho…
Hypoxia-induced dysfunction of rat diaphragm
2004
Contains fulltext : 47331.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Oxidants may play a role in hypoxia-induced respiratory muscle dysfunction. In the present study we hypothesized that hypoxia-induced impairment in diaphragm contractility is associated with elevated peroxynitrite generation. In addition, we hypothesized that strenuous contractility of the diaphragm increases peroxynitrite formation. In vitro force-frequency relationship, isotonic fatigability, and nitrotyrosine levels were assessed under hypoxic (Po(2) approximately 6.5 kPa) and hyperoxic (Po(2) approximately 88.2 kPa) control conditions and also in the presence of authentic peroxynitrite (60 min), ebselen (60 min), and t…
