Purpose: Beta-adrenergic signaling can influence cancer progression and the use of beta blockers as adjuvant drugs in oncologic patients has been suggested. However, the involvement of beta-adrenergic blockers in tumorigenesis ...

Objective: To investigate the influence of chronic stress and adrenergic blockade in a rat model of apical periodontitis. Methods: Thirty-two Wistar rats were submitted to an animal model of periapical lesion and randomly ...

Background/Aim: In addition to their anti-inflammatory and anti-osteoclastogenesis properties, adrenergic blockers may also have promising anti-resorptive effects that can prevent root resorption when teeth are replanted ...

In a commentary in this journal by Oates (2) on our work on interactions of α- and β-blockers (1), the author confirms our results; i.e. β-blockers (β2) block the α-blocker induced hypotension in conscious rats. However, ...

Several first-line antihypertensive drugs, including calcium channel blockers, beta-adrenergic blockers and angiotensin receptor blockers, undergo metabolism through different CYP isoforms. As a consequence of CYP-dependent ...

Field-evoked potentials from the main olfactory bulb in response to stimulation of the olfactory nerve and lateral olfactory tract were measured without and with conditioning stimulation of the locus coeruleus noradrenergic ...

Os objetivos deste estudo são: 1) Esclarecer a possível associação entre o estresse crônico e a estimulação do Sistema Nervoso Simpático (SNS) e investigar sua interferência no desenvolvimento e progressão da lesão periapical; ...

The goal of the present study was to determine if nitric oxide (NO) acting on the brain of bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) is involved in arterial pressure and heart rate (HR) control by influencing sympathetic activity. ...
