Investigation of the Protective Effect of Morin on Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis in Malathion‐Induced Hepatotoxicity in Rats

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malathion (MAL) is a widely used organophosphate pesticide associated with hepatotoxicity through oxidative stress and apoptosis. Morin, a naturally occurring flavonoid, exhibits potent antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties. This study investigated oxidative stress, inflammatory, and apoptotic alterations induced by acute and subacute ...

Penile intracavernosal injection of succinylcholine for laryngospasm management during hypospadias repair

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Laryngospasm is a serious anesthetic complication that can lead to acute airway obstruction and hypoxemia. Standard management involves deepening anesthesia and administering succinylcholine intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM). However, if IV access is lost or IM drug delivery is too slow, alternative routes are required.

Clinical reasoning in feline non‐ambulatory tetraparesis or tetraplegia: Which combination of clinical information is useful?

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐ambulatory tetraparesis or tetraplegia in cats may constitute a diagnostic challenge for general practitioners. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate if clinical variables from signalment, history, clinical examination and basic ancillary tests are associated with underlying diagnoses in cats with non‐ambulatory tetraparesis ...

Impulsive Behavior and Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
Higher impulsivity is thought to be a risk factor for drug addiction, criminal involvement, and suicide. Excessive levels of impulsivity are often observed in several psychiatric disorders including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and schizophrenia. Previous studies have demonstrated that nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are involved

Psychedelic‐assisted treatment for substance use disorder: A narrative systematic review

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims This is the first systematic review of the extant literature on all major psychedelic‐assisted treatment for alcohol use disorder (AUD), tobacco use disorder (TUD) and other substance use disorders (SUD). We aimed to summarise the evidence for efficacy of psychedelic‐assisted treatment for AUD, TUD, and SUD; to evaluate its

Severe drug-induced repetitive behaviors and striatal overexpression of VAChT in ChAT-ChR2-EYFP BAC transgenic mice

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
In drug users, drug-related cues alone can induce dopamine release in the dorsal striatum. Instructive cues activate inputs to the striatum from both dopaminergic and cholinergic neurons, which are thought to work together to support motor learning and ...

Varenicline for cannabis use disorder: A randomized controlled trial

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Although cannabis use is widespread and prevalence of cannabis use disorder (CUD) is increasing, limited advancements have been made in CUD medication development. The objective of this study was to test the efficacy of varenicline with medical management for reducing cannabis use in treatment‐seeking individuals with CUD ...

Acetylcholine-induced inhibition of presynaptic calcium signals and transmitter release in the frog neuromuscular junction

Frontiers in Physiology, 2016
Acetylcholine (ACh), released from axonal terminals of motor neurones in neuromuscular junctions regulates the efficacy of neurotransmission through activation of presynaptic nicotinic and muscarinic autoreceptors.
