The Possible Protective Role of Verapamil and Dantrolene in Experimentally Induced Early Acute Pancreatitis in Male Albino Rat [PDF]
Introduction: The aim of the present work was to elucidate the possible protective role of Verapamil (VPM) and Dantrolene (Da) in controlling experimentally induced early acute pancreatitis (AP) in male albino rats.Materials and Methods: Thirty- two ...

Intranasal administration of dantrolene increased brain concentration and duration.
Dantrolene has been demonstrated to be neuroprotective for multiple neurodegenerative diseases. However, dantrolene's limited penetration into the CNS hampers its effectiveness as a neuroprotective agent.

Monosodium glutamate-mediated Ca<sup>2+</sup>-dependent intestinal epithelial ion transports in health and IBS-D in male mice. [PDF]
Abstract Despite the ubiquitous use of monosodium glutamate (MSG) as a food additive, its specific effects on intestinal health and disease remain largely unclear. Here we found mucosal application of MSG induced an upward intestinal short‐circuit current (Isc) in the murine ileum, which was significantly reduced by extracellular Cl−, Na+, and Ca2 ...

Dantrolene Prevents the Lymphostasis Caused by Doxorubicin in the Rat Mesenteric Circulation
Background and Purpose: Doxorubicin (DOX) is a risk factor for arm lymphedema in breast cancer patients. We reported that DOX opens ryanodine receptors (RYRs) to enact “calcium leak,” which disrupts the rhythmic contractions of lymph vessels (LVs) to ...

The effect of long-term oral dantrolene on the neuromuscular action of rocuronium: a case report [PDF]
Oral dantrolene causes a dose-dependent depression of skeletal muscle contractility. A 52-year-old man treated with oral dantrolene for spasticity after spinal cord injury was scheduled to undergo irrigation and drainage of a thigh abscess under general ...

Hyperthermia and neurological catastrophe: An interesting case report
Fever is a common symptom encountered in clinical practice. Hyperthermia, though infrequently encountered, can be genetical (malignant hyperthermia) or acquired when the body temperature rises beyond a certain set point that is controlled by the ...
