1. Behavioral effects of Bj-PRO-7a, a proline-rich oligopeptide from Bothrops jararaca venom
The heptapeptide Bj-PRO-7a, isolated and identified from Bothrops jararaca (Bj) venom, produces antihypertensive and other cardiovascular effects that are independent on angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition, possibly relying on cholinergic muscarinic receptors subtype 1 (M1R). However, whether Bj-PRO-7a acts upon the central nervous system and modifies b

2. Dipyrone in association with atropine inhibits the effect on gastric emptying induced by hypoglycemia in rats
Atropine (AT) and dipyrone (Dp) induce a delay of gastric emptying (GE) of liquids in rats by inhibiting muscarinic receptors and activating β2-adrenergic receptors, respectively. The objective of the present study was to determine the effects of pretreatment with AT and Dp, given alone or in combination, on the effect of hypoglycemia in the liquid GE in ra

3. Possible mechanisms involved in the vasorelaxant effect produced by clobenzorex in aortic segments of rats
Clobenzorex is a metabolic precursor of amphetamine indicated for the treatment of obesity. Amphetamines have been involved with cardiovascular side effects such as hypertension and pulmonary arterial hypertension. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the direct application of 10–9–10–5 M clobenzorex on isolated phenylephrine-precont

4. Pharmacological study of the mechanisms involved in the vasodilator effect produced by the acute application of triiodothyronine to rat aortic rings
A relationship between thyroid hormones and the cardiovascular system has been well established in the literature. The present in vitro study aimed to investigate the mechanisms involved in the vasodilator effect produced by the acute application of 10-8–10-4 M triiodothyronine (T3) to isolated rat aortic rings. Thoracic aortic rings from 80 adult male Wis

5. Modulatory effects of taurine on jejunal contractility
Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) is widely distributed in animal tissues and has diverse pharmacological effects. However, the role of taurine in modulating smooth muscle contractility is still controversial. We propose that taurine (5-80 mM) can exert bidirectional modulation on the contractility of isolated rat jejunal segments. Different low and high

6. Cardiovascular effects of the intracerebroventricular injection of adrenomedullin: roles of the peripheral vasopressin and central cholinergic systems
Our objective was to investigate in conscious Sprague-Dawley (6-8 weeks, 250-300 g) female rats (N = 7 in each group) the effects of intracerebroventricularly (icv) injected adrenomedullin (ADM) on blood pressure and heart rate (HR), and to determine if ADM and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptors, peripheral V1 receptors or the central cholinerg

7. Antispasmodic effect of Jatropha gossypiifolia is mediated through dual blockade of muscarinic receptors and Ca2+ channels
The antispasmodic activity of Jatropha gossypiifolia L., Euphorbiaceae, aerial parts was investigated in rodents using the mouse intestinal transit model and acetylcholine (ACh, 10-9 to 10-4 M) and calcium (CaCl2, 10-4 to 10-1 M)-induced contractions of isolated rat jejunum. Similar to atropine (1 mg/kg), oral doses of ethanolic extract (EE) of J. gossypiifo

8. Análise anatomopatológica do sistema nervoso autônomo cardíaco intrínseco na fibrilação atrial permanente / Pathologic analysis of the intrinsic cardiac autonomic nervous system in permanent atrial fibrillation
Eventuais alterações no substrato anatômico miocárdico, no sistema nervoso autônomo (SNA) cardíaco intrínseco, envolvendo os plexos ganglionares (PG) comumente presentes em organizações de gordura epicárdicas denominadas fatpads (FP) ou a expressão dos receptores muscarínicos, poderiam ser responsáveis pela gênese e manutenção da fibrilação

9. A diversidade estrutural de peptídeos potenciadores da bradicinina da Bothrops jararaca (Bj-BPPs) proporciona ações sinérgicas no sistema cardiovascular. / The structural diversity of the proline-rich oligopeptides from Bothrops jararaca (Bj-BPPs) provides synergistic cardiovascular actions.
Nosso laboratório mostrou que um único gene codifica um precursor protêico, cujo processamento gera o peptídeo natriurético tipo C (CNP) e uma variedade de peptídeos ricos em prolina, conhecidos como peptideos potenciadores da bradicinina ou BPPs. Com pequenas diferenças, esse precursor é expresso na glândula do veneno e na região neuro-endócrina

10. Avaliação dos mecanismos determinantes dos efeitos cardiovasculares promovidos pelo IM-7 em ratos com hipertensão induzida pelo L-NAME : abordagens in vivo e in vitro / Evaluation of determinant mechanisms involved in cardiovascular effects induced by IM-7 in L-NAME hypertensive rats: In vivo and in vitro approaches
Derivados imidazolidínicos apresentam uma ampla variedade de atividades biológicas, dentre elas a antiarrítmica e anti-hipertensiva. O efeito vasorerrelaxante de seis derivados hidantoínicos foi avaliado neste estudo. Dentre estas substâncias, os efeitos cardiovasculares induzidos por IM-7 foram avaliados empregando-se abordagens in vivo e in vitro. Em

11. Modulation of intracellular signaling pathways in insulin-producing cells lines by INGAP-PP / Analise das vias de sinalização intracelulares em linhagens de celulas produtoras de insulina expostas ao INGAP-PP
The pentadecapeptide comprising the 104-118 aminoacid sequence of the ilotropin-derived Reg3- related islet neogenesis associated protein (INGA-PP) has been implicated in pancreatic beta-cell neogenesis and enhancement of the insulin secretion in pancreatic islets. There is little information regarding the mechanism of action of the polypeptide. The aim of t

12. Melatonin effect on the endothelial nitric oxide production in vitro and in vivo / Efeito da melatonina sobre a produção endotelial de óxido nítrico in vitro e in vivo
Melatonin, the darkness hormone, produced at night by the pineal gland, is also synthesized in a non-rhythmic manner by other cells. Pineal and extra-pineal melatonin reaches endothelial layer, and the understanding of its mechanism of action will improve the possibilities of using this indolamine and derivates as pharmacological tools. Here we showed that m
