THE ROLE OF TRANSIENT RECEPTOR POTENTIAL VANILLOID 1 RECEPTOR IN DESIPRAMINE INDUCED ANALGESIC EFFECT IN DIABETIC MICE
Hyperalgesia is one of the debilitating complications of diabetes. The thermal allodynia and hyperalgesia in diabetic mice may be due to the hyperactivity of C-fiber in the spinal cord. Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) present in spinal cord and activation of C-fibre may involve in hyperalgesia in diabetic mice. Desipramine is one of the tricyclic antidepressants, effective in...

COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN OF SELECTIVE CALCIUM CHANNEL BLOCKERS: USING PHARMACOPHORE – BASED AND DOCKING SIMULATIONS
In the present study, 3-D QSAR analysis was performed on the previously synthesized and evaluated derivatives of novel 2-arylthiazolidinones as selective analgesic N-type calcium channel blockers. Calcium Channel blockers is the molecular target responsible for the treatment of neuropathic and inflammatory pain. The 3D-QSAR study based on the principle of the alignment of pharmacophoric features b...

EFFECTS OF GLYCOSMIS PENTAPHYLLA LEAF POWDER AGAINST CHRONIC ARSENICOSIS IN RATS
The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of Glycosmis pentaphylla (GP) leaf powder against sodium arsenite (NaAsO2) induced toxicosis in adult albino rats. Forty eight albino rats having body weight 150-200 gm of either sex were randomly divided (equally) into four groups viz., I0, I1, I2, I3. Sodium arsenite was administered at 4mg/kg body weight daily in drinking water for 90 day...

REVERSAL OF ROSIGLITAZONE HEPATOTOXICITY BY SILYMARIN ON RATS
The present study was undertaken to investigate the hepatotoxic potential of rosiglitazone- an oral hypoglycemic thiazolidenedione class of drug. The hepatotoxic potential of rosiglitazone was assessed in-vitro on isolated rat hepatocytes before subjecting to in-vivo studies. The in-vitro activity was measured by trypan blue exclusion assay and determination of liver marker enzymes. The hepatotoxi...

IN-VITRO CYTOTOXIC EFFECTS OF METHANOLIC EXTRACTS OF CAESALPINIA PULCHERIMA
The aim of this research was to investigate cytotoxic effects of crude extracts of Caesalpinia pulcherrima (Family: Fabaceae). The flower of Caesalpinia pulcherrima was extracted with methanol and methanolic extract was fractionated into three fractions like n-Hexane, ethyl acetate and chloroform. The methanolic crude extracts were screened for cytotoxic properties using brine shrimp lethality bio...
