A single administration of phenazepam (2.5 mg/kg) enhances the synthesis of antibodies after immunization with different vaccines. Phenazepam restores antibody formation in immunodeficiency induced by intoxication. The immunostimulating effect of phenazepam is linked with an increase in the capacity of macrophages for inducing humoral immune response and a rise in the number of antibody-producing cells in the spleen.  相似文献

Dissociation is produced by injections of phenazepam (a benzodiazepine tranquilizer) before daily sessions of rat learning in a T-maze. The drinking reflex is seen only after the administration of benzodiazepine. The dissociation depth is linked with the dose of phenazepam: the higher the dose the more pronounced dissociation. Besides, it depends on the time between the administration of phenazepam and the reflex registration. One may assume that learning in the presence of phenazepam gives rise to new interrelations that form the basis for a new functional system which warrants the activity with the drug in the body.  相似文献

Ionol, a synthetic antioxidant, limits the stressor liver injury to a greater extent than sodium, valproate and phenazepam, activators of a GABA-ergic link of the stress-limiting organism systems. This injury is exhibited in the organospecific elevated levels of blood enzymes fructosediphosphate aldolase depression of N-demethylase activity of microsomal monooxygenases and a decrease in the amount of cytochromes P-450 and B5.  相似文献

In a previous study we have shown that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) inhibits hepatocyte DNA synthesis after short-term administration and induces hepatocellular carcinomas after long-term administration in the rat. It is not known whether DHEA is also capable of inhibiting replicative and mitogen-induced DNA synthesis. In the present study, we have evaluated the effect of DHEA on DNA synthesis in the rat liver after partial hepatectomy and mitogen administration. After partial hepatectomy, DHEA significantly inhibited DNA synthesis at 20, 26, 32 and 38 h. Similarly, combined administration of ciprofibrate, a peroxisome proliferator and mitogen, and DHEA also resulted in significant hepatocyte DNA synthesis. However, DHEA did not affect liver enlargement caused by ciprofibrate. This experimental system will serve as useful tool to evaluate the role of cell proliferation in carcinogenesis.  相似文献

Initially low level of motor search activity in test situations ("open field", maze) in rats previously grouped according to their passive behaviour with a partner-victim (Simonov method), does not essentially change after 3-week administration of phenazepam; the activity level of cytochrome oxidase in the cortex and hypothalamus is lowered. Phenazepam administration in conditions of prolonged unavoidable painful stimulation brings to a sharp increase of motor search activity and aggressive behaviour. Simultaneously the cytochrome oxidase activity increases in the same way as during a stress without phenazepam. This fact points to the independence of behavioural and biochemical effects in this case.  相似文献

During 5 days after intraperitoneal injection of 14C-phenazepam into albino rats, about 77% of the total radioactivity was excreted with urine and feces in both intact animals and in those premedicated with phenazepam for 15 days. The excretory processes are described by the first order equations. The rates of phenazepam total excretion are identical in single and repeated injections. At the same time, phenazepam injected into the animals at a single dose is predominantly excreted with urine, while in multiple administration it is excreted with feces. Excretion of phenazepam with urine acquires the biexponential features, provided it is injected in multiple doses.  相似文献

1. Chronic administration of morphine, nicotine or phenobarbitone has previously been shown to inhibit rat liver tryptophan pyrrolase activity by increasing hepatic [NADPH], whereas subsequent withdrawal enhances pyrrolase activity by a hormonal-type mechanism. 2. It is now shown that this enhancement is associated with an increase in the concentration of serum corticosterone. 3. Chronic administration of the above drugs enhances, whereas subsequent withdrawal inhibits, brain 5-hydroxytryptamine synthesis. Under both conditions, tryptophan availability to the brain is altered in the appropriate direction. 4. The chronic drug-induced enhancement of brain tryptophan metabolism is reversed by phenazine methosulphate, whereas the withdrawal-induced inhibition is prevented by nicotinamide. 5. The chronic morphine-induced changes in liver [NADPH], pyrrolase activity, tryptophan availability to the brain and brain 5-hydroxytryptamine synthesis are all reversed by the opiate antagonist naloxone. 6. It is suggested that the opposite effects on brain tryptophan metabolism of chronic administration and subsequent withdrawal of the above drugs of dependence are mediated by the changes in liver tryptophan pyrrolase activity. 6. Similar conclusions based on similar findings have previously been made in relation to chronic administration and subsequent withdrawal of ethanol. These findings with all four drugs are briefly discussed in relation to previous work and the mechanism(s) of drug dependence.  相似文献

It was established in mouse experiments that tofranyl and ftoracizin promote rapid attainment of the maximum level of Li+ in tissues (rather than in blood) after their combined administration with LiCl. Haloperidol and to a less measure triphthazin, aminazin and phenazepam provide for Li+ accumulation in some of the organs at a higher level attainable by administering lithium chloride alone.  相似文献

We examined the effect of L-tryptophan (Trp) administration on the reversion of CCl(4)-induced chronic liver injury after hepatotoxicant withdrawal in rats. When rats treated with CCl(4) twice a week for 6 weeks were released from CCl(4) treatment for 2 weeks, there was an incomplete reversion of liver injury. The reversion was enhanced by 2 weeks of daily intraperitoneal administration of Trp (50 mg/kg body weight), starting just after CCl(4) withdrawal. There were increases in the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, an index of lipid peroxidation, Ca(2+), triglycerides, and Trp, and decreases in tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase activity and serum triglyceride concentrations in the liver of rats treated with CCl(4) for 6 weeks. Serum albumin concentrations and in vitro hepatic protein synthesis activity did not change in the CCl(4)-treated rats. The changes in the CCl(4)-treated rats were partially attenuated 2 weeks after CCl(4) withdrawal. The attenuation was enhanced by 2 weeks of daily Trp administration. The increases in hepatic thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and triglycerides and the decreases in hepatic tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase activity and serum triglyceride concentrations observed 2 weeks after CCl(4) withdrawal were almost completely attenuated by Trp administration. In vitro hepatic protein synthesis in CCl(4)-treated and untreated rats was increased by 2 weeks of daily Trp administration. These results indicate that Trp administration promotes the reversion of pre-established chronic liver injury in rats treated with CCl(4,) and suggest that Trp exerts this effect by enhancing the improvement of several parameters of liver dysfunction associated with chronic liver injury and by stimulating hepatic protein synthesis.  相似文献

Chronic phenobarbitone administration inhibits the apo-(tryptophan pyrrolase) activity in homogenates of rat liver and subsequent withdrawal enhances the enzyme activity by 2.5-fold. Similar effects have been previously produced by chronic ethanol administration and withdrawal, but, whereas NADH may cause the ethanol inhibition, that by phenobarbitone may be mediated by NADPH.  相似文献

An optimal therapeutics to manage opioid withdrawal syndrome is desired for opioid addiction treatment. Down-regulation of endogenous endomorphin-2 (EM2) level in the central nervous system after continuous morphine exposure was observed, which suggested that increase of EM2 could be an alternative novel method for opioid dependence. As a short peptide, the short half-life of EM2 limits its clinical usage through conventional administration. In the present study, we engineered an EM2 gene using a signal peptide of mouse growth factor for an out-secretory expression of EM2 and an adenovirus as a vector, which ultimately sustained the release of EM-2. After administration of the adenovirus in central nervous system, a sustained increase of EM2 level in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) was observed along with a reduction of morphine withdrawal syndrome. These findings suggest that the engineered EM2 gene delivered to the central nervous system could be a novel therapeutics for withdrawal syndrome in opioid dependent subjects.  相似文献

The influence of dibunol, phenazepam used alone and combined on rat conflict behavior and rat blood and brain malonic dialdehyde content was studied. It was shown that dibunol exerts an unmarked anticonflict action that can be removed by bicuculline. Combined administration of dibunol and phenazepam potentiates appreciably the anticonflict effect. This permits reducing the doses of the drugs. The anxiolytic effect of dibunol alone and combined with phenazepam is attended by a decrease in the content of malonic dialdehyde in rat blood and brain, evidence of the reduction of the lipid peroxidation intensity.  相似文献

In comparison with the literature data the pharmacological effects of muscimol (MS) on mice organism were studied under the condition of administration of the exogenic ligands of GABA-receptor complex GABA antagonist bicuculline (BC), chloride ionophor blocking agent pentylenetetrazole (PZ), phenazepam (BD), sodium barbital (BB) and GABA synthesis antagonist--thiosemicarbazide (TS). Antagonism of MS to the anticonvulsant effect of BB and BD at the administration of BC to the animal was observed, while no effect was observed at the administration of PZ. However at the administration of TS to the experimental animals MS exhibits anticonvulsant effect. The observed properties (partial agonism/partial reverse agonism) of MS at its effect to the whole system are probably determined by the level of endogenic GABA and its changes due to the administration of TS and functional state of GABA--receptor system modified with the exogenic ligand BC.  相似文献

Experiments on 330 rats were made to study the influence of benzodiazepines (diazepam, dormicum and phenazepam) on 5'-nucleotidase activity in brain homogenates. It was discovered that diazepam and dormicum in doses of 3 and 4 mg, phenazepam in doses of 3.75 and 5 mg per 200 g bw provoked a 16-20% reduction in 5'-nucleotidase activity. The maximal effect of diazepam (3 and 4 mg doses) was attained 1 h after intraperitoneal injection, that of dormicum (3 mg) 30 min and of phenazepam (5 mg) 1 h after intraperitoneal injection. It is assumed that benzodiazepines are involved in AMP metabolism.  相似文献

The influence of acute and chronic ethanol treatment and withdrawal on regulation of dopamine synthesis in striatal and mesolimbic areas of mouse brain was evaluated. Tyrosine hydroxylase activity was estimated by measuring in vivo DOPA accumulation after inhibition of aromatic amino acid decarboxylase. Eight hours after a single (3 g/kg) dose of ethanol, DOPA synthesis was increased and pimozide, a dopamine receptor antagonist, stimulated DOPA synthesis to the same degree in ethanol-treated and control animals. On the other hand, 8 h after withdrawal of animals from chronic ethanol treatment, endogenous dopamine synthesis was the same in ethanol-withdrawn and control animals, but the stimulation of dopamine synthesis produced by low doses of pimozide or haloperidol was significantly less in the animals that had consumed ethanol. This effect was even more apparent at 24h after withdrawal; by 3 days after withdrawal the decreased response of ethanol-withdrawn animals to the administration of dopamine receptor blockers was no longer statistically significant. At all time points tested, high doses of pimozide or haloperidol stimulated DOPA synthesis equally in control and ethanol-withdrawn animals. Chronic ethanol treatment and withdrawal may alter the coupling between dopamine receptors which regulate dopamine synthesis and tyrosine hydroxylase.  相似文献

Withdrawal syndrome in rats was induced after ethanol administration in a dose of 4-5 g/kg b. w. twice daily for 5 consecutive days. Creatine phosphokinase and lactate dehydrogenase release from the isolated heart and catecholamine distribution in the heart have been investigated in rats suffering from alcohol withdrawal syndrome. Maximum rate of enzyme release was observed on the third day of withdrawal. The density of catecholamine neurons in intact hearts and the hearts of rats sacrificed 2-6 hours, 1, 3, and 7 days after the last ethanol administration was 86, 64, 28, 7 and 38%, respectively. The area of extraneuronal catecholamine distribution accounted for 2, 19, 46, 82 and 4%. Synchronous changes observed in catecholamine distribution and the rate of enzyme release suggest that catecholamines act as a trigger of heart damage in rats with alcohol withdrawal syndrome.  相似文献

The role of the cannabinoid system in morphine withdrawal was examined through long-term CB1 receptor antagonist administration in morphine pellet implanted rats. SR141716A chronic treatment (5mg/kg i.p. twice a day for four days) did not influence the development of tolerance to the morphine analgesic effect but significantly reduced the intensity of naloxone-induced opiate withdrawal in tolerant rats: Specifically there was a significant reduction in the number of digging, teeth chattering and penile licking and the incidence of diarrhoea while other signs such as writhing, head dog shakes and rearing were unaffected. These results suggest that the pharmacological treatment with SR141716A could be of some interest in ameliorating opiate withdrawal syndrome.  相似文献

This study describes the effects of short- and long-term ethanol treatment and withdrawal on the biosynthesis of the phospholipids phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in hepatocytes isolated from rats, using isotopically labelled choline and ethanolamine as exogenous precursors. Our results demonstrate that short-term ethanol consumption increases the incorporation of exogenous polar bases into PC and PE, whereas long-term ethanol administration provokes a differential effect in both PC and PE biosynthesis via cytidine diphosphate derivatives (CDP-derivatives), decreasing PC synthesis and increasing the biosynthesis of PE. We suggest that the increased biosynthesis of PE after ethanol treatment results from changes in lipogenic substrates produced as a consequence of ethanol metabolism, whilst the specific inhibition of PC biosynthesis seems to be a consequence of alterations of enzymes involved in the CDP-choline pathway. With regard to the influence of ethanol on PE methylation to give PC, our results demonstrate that ethanol activates this pathway in short-term, as well as chronic ethanol treatment. Ethanol withdrawal returns the activity of the PC and PE pathways to control levels. The alterations in the biosynthesis of the main phospholipids, PC and PE, demonstrated in this study could be of a great physiological interest in determining the pathology of alcoholism.  相似文献

Abstract: GABA, which is present at high levels within the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus, has been implicated in neuroendocrine regulation. Here we use a transgenic mouse model expressing a human proenkephalin-β-galactosidase fusion gene, in which both up-regulation and down-regulation of gene expression can be measured easily, to study the effects of GABA on basal and stress-induced gene expression within the PVN. This model has been shown previously to be appropriately physiologically regulated by stress within the PVN. Acute systemic administration of GABA, of aminooxyacetic acid, and of the selective GABAB receptor agonist, baclofen, induces transgene expression in the PVN. Chronic administration of aminooxyacetic acid inhibits both basal and stress-induced transgene expression. Acute or chronic administration of the selective GABAA agonist, muscimol, inhibits both basal and stress-induced expression of the transgene. Muscimol also inhibits transgene expression in hypothalamic slice cultures in which extrahypothalamic afferents are removed. It is surprising that, following chronic aminooxyacetic acid administration, the opiate antagonist naltrexone induces transgene expression in a manner similar to that observed with naloxone-precipitated opioid withdrawal and that expression is accompanied by a behavioral syndrome that partially mimicks opioid withdrawal. Taken together with our previous work, and using gene expression as our read-out, we conclude that transgene-expressing PVN neurons receive tonic inhibitory inputs mediated via GABAA receptors. Moreover, these inhibitory inputs can themselves be inhibited via GABAB and μ-opioid receptors.  相似文献

1. The analgesic effect of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is partly due to the fact that they act upon the periaqueductal gray matter (PAG) and the rostral ventromedial medulla of the brain stem and thus activate the descending pain-control system, which inhibits nociceptive transmission at the spinal dorsal horn.2. The analgesic action of dipyrone (metamizol) and of lysine-acetylsalicylate (LASA), two well-known NSAIDs, whether microinjected into the PAG or given systemically, can be reverted by naloxone. Repeated administration of dipyrone or LASA induces tolerance to their antinociceptive effect, with cross-tolerance to morphine, and a withdrawal syndrome upon naloxone administration. Dipyrone tolerance can be reverted by proglumide, a cholecystokinin antagonist.3. These findings reveal a close association between the central action of NSAIDs and endogenous opioids.  相似文献
