Alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists as analgesic drugs in equine medicine

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Managing pain in horses is challenging despite the availability of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs, local anaesthetics, opioids and α2‐adrenoreceptor agonists. While α2‐agonists are widely used for sedation and restraint, their analgesic properties remain underutilised.

Melatonin and the Dental Pulp: A Scoping Review

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In general medicine, melatonin is known to enhance wound healing and promote stem cell differentiation. Its potential relevance in endodontics, however, remains underexplored. Objectives This scoping review aimed to systematically assess the available evidence on the effects of melatonin (a) on dental pulp tissue and (b) on human ...

Brain ischemia alters platelet ATP diphosphohydrolase and 5'-nucleotidase activities in naive and preconditioned rats

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
The effects of transient forebrain ischemia, reperfusion and ischemic preconditioning on rat blood platelet ATP diphosphohydrolase and 5'-nucleotidase activities were evaluated. Adult Wistar rats were submitted to 2 or 10 min of single ischemic episodes,

Alternation of gene expression in brain-derived exosomes after cerebral ischemic preconditioning in mice

Heliyon
Aims: Cerebral ischemic preconditioning is a neuroprotective therapy against cerebral ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion injury. This study aims to demonstrate the alternation of gene expression in exosomes from brain tissue of mice after ischemic ...

Low‐dose X‐ray radiation induces an adaptive response: A potential countermeasure to galactic cosmic radiation exposure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space exploration involves many dangers including galactic cosmic radiation (GCR). This class of radiation includes high‐energy protons and heavy ionizing ions. NASA has defined GCR as a carcinogenic risk for long‐duration space missions. To date, no clear strategy has been developed to counter chronic GCR exposure.

Blood flow restriction: The acute effects of body tilting and reduced gravity analogues on limb occlusion pressure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Blood flow restriction (BFR) has been identified as a potential countermeasure to mitigate physiological deconditioning during spaceflight. Guidelines recommend that tourniquet pressure be prescribed relative to limb occlusion pressure (LOP); however, it is unclear whether body tilting or reduced gravity analogues influence LOP.

Evaluation of the effects of ischemic preconditioning on the hematological parameters of rats subjected to intestinal ischemia and reperfusion

Clinics, 2015
OBJECTIVES: Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion often leads to acute lung injury and multiple organ failure. Ischemic preconditioning is protective in nature and reduces tissue injuries in animal and human models.
