- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Objective(s): Celecoxib (CLX), a selective cyclooxygenase-II (COX-2) inhibitor, has been used for management of several inflammatory disorders. The present study aimed to explore the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) in CLX induced anti-inflammatory response in rats.
Materials and Methods: Carrageenan-induced paw edema was used as an acute inflammation model. Rats were treated with various intra-peritoneal (IP) doses of CLX (0.3–30 mg/kg) and pioglitazone (PGL; PPARγ agonist, 1–20 mg/kg) alone or in combination. Amounts of PPARγ, COX-2, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in paw tissue, and extents of TNF-α and IL-10 in serum were measured. Moreover, levels of oxidative stress parameters as malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity in the cortex, hippocampus, and paw tissues were also determined.
Results: CLX and PGL dose-dependent administration (IP), alone or in combination reduced carrageenan-induced paw edema. Further, both agents, alone or in combination, reduced either the amounts of COX-2, PGE2, and MDA in the inflamed paw, and the levels of TNF-α in serum which were elevated by carrageenan. Both drugs also increased both levels of PPARγ, GSH, GPx activity in paws, and serum levels of IL-10 that were decreased by carrageenan. Intraplantar injection of GW-9662 (IPL), a selective PPARγ antagonist, inhibited all biochemical modifications caused by both single and combined drug treatments.
Conclusion: CLX produced its anti-inflammatory effects probably through PPARγ receptor activation. Besides, increased anti-inflammatory effects of CLX with PGL suggest that their combination might be applied for the clinical management of inflammation especially in patients suffering from diabetes.- انتشار مقاله: 02-08-1398

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Objective: The present study was hypothesized to investigate the beneficial effects of fresh, aged, and cooked garlic extracts on blood glucose and memory of diabetic rats induced by streptozocine (STZ).
Material and Methods: Diabetes was induced by an intraperitoneal injection of STZ (60 mg/kg body weight). An oral dose of 1000 mg/kg of each garlic extract was given daily for 4 weeks after diabetes induction. Five days after STZ injection, five groups were formed: Control (intact) rats (Cont) + Vehicle of garlic extract (normal saline) (Veh), STZ + Veh, STZ + Fresh (row) garlic (FG), STZ + Aged garlic (AG), and STZ + cooked (boiled) garlic (CG). In order to assess the passive avoidance memory, rats were gently placed on the wooden platform, and latency to step-down (SDL) was recorded as initial phase, after then a light electrical shock [0.3 mA, 3 sec, Alternative current (AC)] was delivered to their foot paw. The retrieval tests were done for short- and long-term memories, respectively. Blood glucose was assayed by glucometer before and after treatment with STZ and garlic extracts.
Results: Hyperglycemia induced by STZ decreased short-term memory in both diabetic males and females rats significantly compared with the controls (pConclusions: STZ causes elevation of the blood glucose and resulted in memory deficits, possibly viafree radicals production in brain tissue. Garlic has some bioactive chemicals including allicin and sulfur compound (OSC) which could lower the blood glucose during chronic hyperglycemia, inhibit free radicals production in brain, and improve short-term (but not long-term) memory.
