Effects of tizanidine, a centrally acting muscle relaxant, on motor systems

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1986
Effects of tizanidine were studied with special reference to the effect on motor systems. The drug effectively reduced the intercollicular decerebrate rigidity and gamma-activity indirectly recorded from muscle spindle afferent discharges without showing the direct inhibitory effect on muscle spindles in rats.

Relaxation and subjective estimates of muscle tension: Implications for a central efferent theory of muscle control

Biofeedback and Self-Regulation, 1980
The relationship of "awareness of muscle tension" to depth of relaxation was explored. In one experiment, accuracy of forearm flexor control was assessed using the psychophysical method of magnitude production, and depth of flexor relaxation was measured using the integrated EMG before and after EMG biofeedback training.

A search for more effective muscle relaxants among the glycerol ethers and dioxolanes.

Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 1954
1) Centrally acting muscle relaxants of mephenesin type are shown to abolish pinna reflex earlier than corneal reflex, in contrast to many other types of central depressants.

Glyceryl Guaiacolate: a Centrally Acting Muscle Relaxant

Equine Veterinary Journal, 1970
Summary A review of the history of centrally‐acting muscle relaxants has been given. The centrally‐acting muscle relaxant glyceryl guaiacolate has been used extensively in continental Europe and, within recent years, has attracted the attention of North American workers.

Effects of NK433, a new centrally acting muscle relaxant, on masticatory muscle reflexes in rats

European Journal of Pharmacology, 1996
The effects of (-)-(R)-2-methyl-3-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-4'- trifluoromethylpropiophenone monohydrochloride (NK433), a novel centrally acting muscle relaxant, on masticatory muscle reflexes were investigated in rats. NK433 inhibited the monosynaptic tonic vibration reflex of the masseter muscle and the polysynaptic tonic periodontal masseteric reflex.

Pharmacological associations of Central Serous Chorioretinopathy: Looking beyond corticosteroids.

Survey of ophthalmology
Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) has multiple associations and risk factors. Of these, psychological stress, corticosteroid treatment, and specific personality traits are well recognized.

Involvement of imidazoline receptors in the centrally acting muscle-relaxant effects of tizanidine

European Journal of Pharmacology, 2002
The centrally acting muscle relaxant tizanidine has an imidazoline structure and binds not only to alpha(2)-adrenoceptors but also to imidazoline receptors. The role of imidazoline receptors in the muscle-relaxant effect of tizanidine was studied using the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor/imidazoline receptor antagonist idazoxan and the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor ...

[Cleavage and biotransformation of the central muscle relaxant chlormezanone].

Die Pharmazie, 1998
Chlormezanone, a chiral centrally acting muscle relaxant, will be cleaved at its S-C-1 bond by an autoprotolytic process. The optimum of chemical stability exists between pH 2 up to pH 9 with a maximum at pH 7.4. The plasma half life at 37 degrees C is 76 h.

Cyclobenzaprine, a centrally acting muscle relaxant, acts on descending serotonergic systems

European Journal of Pharmacology, 1996
The centrally acting muscle relaxant cyclobenzaprine was thought to be an alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist that reduced muscle tone by decreasing the activity of descending noradrenergic neurons. In the present study, we examined the effects of cyclobenzaprine on descending neurons by measuring the monosynaptic reflex in rats.

Effects of centrally acting muscle relaxants on post-rotatory nystagmus in the rabbit

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1989
1. The effects of some centrally acting muscle relaxants on the post-rotatory nystagmus induced by rotatory stimulation were investigated in the rabbit, to examine the action of the drugs on vestibular function. 2. Tolperisone-HCl (5-10 mg/kg, i.v.) and baclofen (1-3 mg/kg, i.v.) decreased the number of post-rotatory nystagmus beats dose-dependently ...
