Aim: Paeoniflorin from Chinese herb Paeoniae Radix has been shown to ameliorate middle cerebral artery occlusion-induced ischemia in rats. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying the neurop...
Adenosine acts as a gastroprotective factor decreasing inflammation and reducing gastric acid secretion. Quantitative RT-PCR was used to determine the expression of the adenosine receptor genes (A1AR, A2AAR, A2BAR and...
Endogenous adenosine can enter the extracellular space either by direct release or via formation from adenine nucleotides. We have compared the effects of substances blocking the ecto-5'-nucleotidase with a, b-methyle...
目的:观察腺苷A1受体拮抗剂1,3-二丙基-环戊黄嘌呤(8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine,DPCPX)对体外培养低氧复氧(hypoxia and reoxygenation,H/R)大鼠脑星形胶质细胞促红细胞生成素(erythropoietin,EPO)释放量、谷氨酰胺合成酶(gluta...
AIM: To study the effect of blocking adenosine A1 receptors on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) protein expression and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) content of the rat hippocampus. METHODS: Using immunohistoc...
