Anterograde effects of a single electroconvulsive shock on inhibitory avoidance and on cued fear conditioning
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 1998-08-01)
A single electroconvulsive shock (ECS) or a sham ECS was administered to male 3-4-month-old Wistar rats 1, 2, and 4 h before training in an inhibitory avoidance test and in cued classical fear conditioning (measured by ...
Protection of dopaminergic neurons by electroconvulsive shock in an animal model of Parkinson's disease
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2007-11-26)
Electroconvulsive shock (ECS) improves motor function in Parkinson's disease. In rats, ECS stimulates the expression of various factors some of which have been proposed to exert neuroprotective actions. We have investigated ...

(Biomed Central Ltd, 2013-09-06)
Background: Bone marrow is an accessible source of progenitor cells, which have been investigated as treatment for neurological diseases in a number of clinical trials. Here we evaluated the potential benefit of bone marrow ...
Acetylcholinesterase activity in the pons and medulla oblongata of rats after chronic electroconvulsive shock

In Brazil, it is estimated that epilepsy affects from 2% of the population, about three million people at different ages and social classes. The use of antiepileptic drugs is the most common form of seizure control, although ...
Rapid eye movement sleep deprivation-induced down-regulation of beta-adrenergic receptors in the rat brainstem and hippocampus
(2004-09-01)
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep deprivation induces a cortical down-regulation of beta-adrenergic receptors. Down-regulation of cortical beta-adrenergic receptors is consistently observed after a number of different chronic ...
