Effect of Atorvastatin on Pentylenetetrazol-Induced Threshold Seizures in Gonadectomized Male Mice

S. Azizi, N. Heydarieh *, F. Jmalu Pages 527-537

Introduction
Epilepsy is a central nervous system disorder that appears as sudden convulsions, and transient, repetitive and unpredictable movement, with sensory-motor and autonomic sources. Statins are a group of blood cholesterol-lowering drugs. According to the results of the anti-inflammatory and vasoprotective effects of statins on cultured brain cells (astrocytes and microglia) and endothelial cells, the purpose of this study was investigating the effect of atorvastatin on pentilentetrazole-induced seizures in gonadectomized male mice.
Methods
36 male NMRI mice, weighting 30-35 g were used in the study. The mice were divided into two groups (Each group consisted of 18 mice : healthy and gonadectomized groups. The surgical removal of the testicles was gonadectomy and injections were given intraperitoneally. In gonadectomized group, an operation to remove the testicles was done. The DMSO group (0/3 cc) and treatment group were received Atorvastatin (10 mg/kg) intraperitoneally and then 30 minutes after that they received PTZ (80 mg/kg) injection. All injections were administered intraperitoneally. After injection of PTZ- duration of seizure onset (threshold) was recorded. The data were analyzed by one way variance analysis and Tukeys test using SPSS (p
Results
In healthy group, receiving Atorvastatin significantly increased the time of seizure onset (threshold) compared to solvent DMSO group and on the other hand gonadectomized mice had a significant reduction in the duration of seizures than normal mice (p
Conclusion

Introduction
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders that affect on many aspects of people's lives. Multiple treatment methods were used for epileptic patients. Recently, treatment effects of medicinal plants on epilepsy have been investigated. In attention to components of Origanum vulgare and the usage of it in traditional medicine as an anti-convulsion herb, this study was carried out to assess the anti-convulsive effects of Origanumvulgare extract on chemical kindling model of epilepsy.
Methods
The present experimental study has been carried out on 40 male mice that they have been chosen randomly and divided into 5 equal experimental groups, including one control group received only Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ), one sham group received distilled water and three experimental groups that 30 minutes before PTZ injection received equeous extract of Origanumvulgare in doses of 400, 600 and 800 mg/kg of body weight via gavage tube. Chemical kindling was performed on all of them for 12 times intraperitoneal injection of 45 mg/kg of body weight of PTZ at every 48 hours. Data analyses were carried out by one way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc test.
Results
Data analysis showed that administration of Origanum vulgare extract has a significant effect on chemical kindling. It decreased the progress of seizure stages significantly (P˂0.05) and increased latency time for onset of seizure considerably (P˂0.05), but it had no significant effect on seizure duration.
Conclusion
The results obtained from the present study showed aqueous extract of Origanum vulgare plant had anti convulsant effect on chemical kindling. Thus, it may be useful for epilepsy treatment.

A Study of the Transfusion of Reserved Blood for Elective Surgeries

Ns Hosseini, Mai Dehqani *, S. Mahmel Za Yazdi, F. Amiri Pages 547-554

Introduction
Nowadays, over-ordering of blood is a common practice in preparation for elective surgical procedures that due to the blood products shortage and and the fact that high amount of blood is not used, this problem can be solved by changing the blood ordering schedule. The aim of this study was the examination of stored blood transfusion rate in elective surgical procedures.
Materials And Methods
This present cross-sectional study was undertaken on 296 patients who were chosen by the use of non-random method underwent elective surgeries C/ S, thyroidectomy, total hysterectomy, laminectomy, open cholecystectomy, Spilenectomy, total hip and total Knee between September 2013to march 2014. Information was extracted by check list researcher and patients records and it was analyzed by the means of descriptive statistics and statistical software 21 SPSS.
Results
A total of 296 patients underwent chosen elective surgery during the study period. A total of 912 blood units were cross-matched of which only 115 units were transfused. This means only 12.6% of units were transfused while 87.4% of blood units were not used. Also, no significant correlation was found between the patient's age, gender and his/her blood utilization.
Conclusion
According to the findings, routine bloods reservation in chosen elective surgeries are not necessary. In order to improve the quality of ordering, the use of "maximum surgical blood ordering schedule" is suggested, by applying this, it could fit the varying demands of bloods of hospital

Decrease of Tie1 and VCAM-1 Genes Expression in Microgravity Condition: New Strategy for Study and Treatment of Atherosclerosis Disease

H. Dadgarnia, Z. Hajebrahimi * Pages 555-564

Introduction
VCAM-1 and Tie1 are endothelial molecule and receptor, respectively that may participate in atherosclerosis disease. Endothelial cells are very sensitive to mechanical forces, including microgravity and the morphological and functional changes in this condition. To examine the effect of gravity on atherosclerosis disease, we analyzed the expression of VCAM-1 and Tie1 genes in microgravity condition in HUVEC cells.
Methods
The research method was experimental. HUVEC cells purchased from Pastor Institute. We used a clinostat to simulate microgravity condition for 2, 24 and 72 hours. Real time PCR technique was used for gene expression analysis after extraction of RNA from cells.
Results
Our results showed that microgravity led to a significant decrease in gene expression of VCAM-1 and Tie1 (p
Conclusion
It seems that weightlessness has a positive impact on reducing the factors causing atherosclerosis and can be used as a new strategy in the treatment of the atherosclerosis disease. Microgravity also can be used to study development and progression of vascular disease.

M. Alirezaei *, N. Khalighian, H. Shokrani, N. Tanideh Pages 565-575

Introduction
Betaine (trimethyl glycine) is known as methyl group donor and antioxidant in previous reports. The aim of this study was to assess the antioxidant effects of betaine in Indomethacin-induced gastric damages.
Methods
Thirty-two adult male SpragueDawley rats in an experimental study were divided into four equal groups as follow: Control, Indomethacin, Betaine-indomethacin and Ascorbic acid-indomethacin. Control and indomethacin groups received normal saline and betaine and ascorbic acid-pretreated rats were administrated betaine (1.5% of the total diet) and ascorbic acid (50 mg/kg body weight) for 15 consecutive days, respectively. After 24 h fasting, all of the groups received indomethacin (48 mg/kg body weight) and control group received distilled water.
Results
Indomethacin administration increased gastric ulcer occurrence (%) in comparison with control group and betaine pretreatment significantly decreased ulcer occurrence (%) when compared to the other groups (P=0.0017). Gastric wall glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity was significantly lower in indomethacin group in comparison with the other groups (P=0.0012) while, betaine and ascorbic acid pretreatment increased GPx activity in comparison with indomethacin group (P=0.0012). Catalase activity was significantly higher in betaine-pretreated rats in comparison with indomethacin and ascorbic acid-indomethacin groups (P=0.0015). Lipid peroxidation significantly decreased in betaine and ascorbic acid pretreated groups (P=0.0013).
Conclusion
These results showed beneficial antioxidant effects of betaine against gastric damages induced by indomethacin in rats.

N. Ghayedi, A. Bahaoddini, Se Khoshnam *, F. Gholampour, Ar Khosravi, Mr Moein Pages 576-586

Introduction
The licorice (Glycyrrhizaglabra) rhizome has been widely used in traditional medicine for treatment of gastrointestinal diseases such as gastric ulcer and relieve intestinal spasms. In the present study, the effect of hydro-alcoholic extract of licoricerhizome on mechanical activity of isolated colon of male rats has been studied.
Methods
Adult male rats were anesthetized by ethyl ether, their abdomen opened, and colon tissues were removed and divided into 1 cm segments. The segments were connected to a force transducer longitudinally and inserted to an organ bathe contained oxygenated Tyrode solution (37 °C, pH=7.4). Their mechanical activity of ileum was recorded by power lab AD instrument in basal condition, and after administration of L-NAME (10-4M), acetylcholine (4×10-5M) and Atropine (10-5M) drugs in the presence and absence of licorice rhizome extract were recorded (0.036mg/ml). Also, the mechanical activity of control group segments were recorded at the same condition with extract solvent (ethanol %70).
Results
A significant decrease in mechanical activity of the isolated colon occurred after administration of hydro-alcoholic extract of licorice rhizome compared to the control group (p≤0.05). Also, a significant decrease was seen in mechanical activity occurredin the co-administration of extract and acetylcholine compared to the control group. The mechanical activity of tissue was not significantly changed in the presence of Atropine and extract between experimental and control groups. The mechanical activity of ileum tissue was not significantly changed in the co-administration of L-NAME and extract between experimental and control groups.
Conclusion
We can conclude that hydro-alcoholic extract of licorice has modifying effect on colon motility, and this activity may be occurred independently in the nitrergic and cholinergic systems.

Introduction
Alzheimers disease is one of the most prevalent brain neurodegenerative diseases and the most common cognitive deficits are memory dysfunction and spatial perception impairment. Progesterone has a neorostroid action in hippocampal neurogenesis, synaptic stability and spatial learning and memory and has antioxidant effect. Since oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, and conflicting results were reported about the effects of progesterone on therefore in Alzheimers, the present study investigated the effect of microinjection of three doses of progesterone on the process of spatial memory and lipid peroxidation and total peroxidation in the hippocampus in the experimental model of AD.
Methods
42 adult male Wistar rats weighting 250±50 g were randomly divided into six main groups (n=7): control group, sham group, Alzheimers model (intracerebroventricular injection of streptozotocin), Alzheimer model progesterone (0.5, 1.5, 2µg/kg). 2 weeks after injection of streptozotocin (3 mg/kg), Alzheimer's was induced then progesterone injected in different doses. After termination of behavioral testing days, the hippocampus was removed to measure the levels of oxidative stress parameter to measure levels of oxidative stress parameters. Statistical analysis was performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Results
Results showed that intraventricular injection of STZ decreased spatial memory in comparison to control group (P
Conclusion
