AB  - Dacryocystography is a specific method of radiological examination of the nasolacrimal apparatus based on the use of a positive contrast agent, which allows the assessment of morphology and patency. Pathological conditions of the nasolacrimal apparatus in rabbits are very common in clinical practice, and the disturbance of this apparatus’ patency is usually a consequence of dental diseases or respiratory infections. The aim of this article is to present the most common pathological conditions that can affect
the patency of the nasolacrimal apparatus in rabbits, a detailed anatomical description of the nasolacrimal apparatus in these animals, and the technique for performing dacryocystography.
AB  - Dakriocistografija je specijalna metoda radiološkog pregleda nazolakrimalnog kanala, koja se zasniva na upotrebi pozitivnog kontrastnog sredstva i omogućava procenu njegove morfologije i prohodnosti. Patološka stanja nazolakrimalnog kanala kod kunića su veoma česta u svakodnevnoj kliničkoj praksi, a poremećaj njegove prohodnosti je najčešće posledica dentalnih oboljenja ili respiratornih infekcija. Cilj ovog rada je da se ukaže na najčešća patološka stanja koja mogu narušiti prohodnost nazolakrimalnog
kanala kunića, detaljan anatomski opis nazolakrimalnog aparata ovih životinja, kao i sama tehnika sprovođenja ove radiološke procedure.

AB  - Normal redox status of the cell is maintained by a number of enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase and low molecular weight antioxidants. One of the component that determining the redox status of cells is the tripeptide glutathione. Maintaining high levels of reduced glutathione enhances antioxidant defense. The aim of this study was to examine whether, to what extent and in what way changes in physiological processes occurred in conditions when cellular redox homeostasis is in imbalance. The experiments were performed on isolated ileum of male Wistar rats, electrically stimulated and treated with cumulative doses of reduced or oxidized glutathione. The activity of antioxidant enzymes (catalase, glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, copper–zinc superoxide dismutase and manganese superoxide dismutase) was determined in treated ileum.  Glutathione in both forms decreased amplitude of ileum contractions. Cumulative doses of oxidized glutathione led to higher glutathione reductase activity while the addition of reduced glutathione increased activity of glutathione peroxidase. The results showed that maintenance of cellular redox homeostasis have influence to physiological processes.

AB  - Numerous studies are based on the use of animal models; however, in bipedal and
tetrapedal organisms there are significant differences in the biomechanics of the spinal
column, which can significantly impair the quality and applicability of the results
obtained. The aim of this study is to obtain basic data on the morphometric parameters
of guinea pig lumbar vertebrae, the analysis of which will indicate the location of the
biggest mechanical load. The lumbar vertebra morphometry test was performed by
means of X-ray imageing obtained from 12 guinea pigs, with equal numbers of males
and females. The results of investigations show that guinea pig lumbar vertebrae have
an irregular trapezoid geometry and that the measured body lengths of L4 and L5 are
the largest. The height parameters determined in the medial level showed that L4 had
the most concave body. Moreover, L4 had the greatest depth of the spinal canal at the
same measurement level. Consequently, in guinea pigs, the greatest load is in the L4
region, unlike in humans, where, due to the axial load of the spinal column, the highest
pressure is exerted on the last lumbar vertebrae.

je da se dobiju osnovni podaci o morfometrijskim parametrima lumbalnih pršljenova
zamoraca, čijom analizom će se ukazati na mesto najvećeg mehaničkog opterećenja.
Morfometrijsko ispitivanje lumbalnih pršljenova zamoraca je sprovedeno na rendgenskim
snimcima 12 jedinki, sa jednakim brojem mužjaka i ženki. Rezultati ispitivanja
pokazuju da lumbalni pršljenovi zamoraca imaju nepravilnu trapezoidnu geometriju i
da su izmerene dužine L4 i L5 najveće. Parametri visine određivani su u medijalnom
nivou i pokazali su da L4 ima najkonkavnije telo. Štaviše, L4 je imao najveću dubinu
kičmenog kanala na istom nivou merenja. Shodno tome, kod zamoraca je najveće opterećenje
u L4 regiji za razliku od ljudi, gde se usled aksijalnog opterećenja kičmenog
stuba najveći pritisak ostvaruje na poslednjim lumbalnim pršljenovima.

AB  - Женке пацова имају хормонски контролисан еструсни циклус који изазива регуларне цикличне ткивне и ћелијске промене. Стога, експерименти који се изводе на женкама треба да укључују проверу фазе циклуса и рад на јединкама које су у истој фази. Уобичајено је да се узимају женке у еструсу, али како еструсна фаза траје 15-24 h, женке третиране у еструсу после 6 h ће бити и даље у еструсу у већини случајева, али већ после 24 h су у метаеструсу. Наши претходни резултати показују да ефекти на женкама пацова зависе од фазе циклуса када је апликација фармаколошки активним агенсом урађена. Како је изоловани утерус један од фармаколошких ex vivo модела избора испитивања деловања фармаколошки активних супстанци, укључујући и редокс активне, промене у утерусу директно подложне цикличности могу утицати на ефективност учинка, те и давати варијабилне резултате активности. Стога смо у овом раду мерили активност антиоксидативних ензима (SOD, CAT, GSH-Px и GR) у утерусу у различитим фазама еструсног циклуса. Утеруси у еструсу имају нижу SOD2 и вишу GSH-Px активност у поређењу са другим фазама. Активност GR у еструсу и проеструсу су биле више у поређењу са метаеструсом и диеструсом. Ове промене су у вези и са хормоналним и са редокс статусом утеруса током циклуса. Наши резултати показују да физиолошки, а посебно редокс одговор на екстерне стимулусе може бити другачији у зависности од фазе еструсног циклуса.

AB  - Sexual dysfunction, as a noticeable adverse effect of atypical antipsychotic drugs (APDs) for the treatment of schizophrenia, has not been investigated in detail. A study was undertaken to investigate whether 28-day long treatment with clozapine, ziprasidone or sertindole (using a recommended daily dose for atypical antipsychotic therapy), induced histopathological changes both in rat testicles and prostate, changed the activity of the antioxidant defence system and altered blood testosterone and prolactin. Clozapine, ziprasidone and sertindole induced histopathological changes in rat testicular tissue, which could be attributed to a disturbed testicular antioxidant defence system in addition to an altered prolactin to testosterone ratio. None of the APD treatments induced histopathological changes in prostate. Our results demonstrate that APDs have the capacity to change both redox and endocrinological balance. One or both outcomes could underline testicular degeneration and disturbed spermatogenesis.

AB  - Introduction: Cerebral hypoperfusion (CH), a reduced cerebral blood flow, characteristic for aging and neurodegenerative disorders, might be associated with a pro-oxidative state in the brain due to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause neuronal damage. These overgenerated pro-oxidants might be reduced, disabled and neutralized by the endogenous antioxidant enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT). A sex steroid hormone, progesterone, in several experimental models of neuronal injury exerts anti-oxidative properties upregulating anti-oxidative molecules and thus promoting neuroprotection. However, its efficacy in the state of CH is still unknown and it is necessary to better understand the mechanism underlying this hormone’s neuroprotective effects.
Aim: We investigated whether progesterone is able to modulate CH-induced pro-oxidative/anti-oxidative imbalance, as well as SOD and CAT activities, in the prefrontal cortex of three-month-old male Wistar rats subjected to permanent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (2VO).
Methods: The appropriate actions were undertaken to reduce the distress of the animals in agreement with the European Community Council Directive of 86/609/EEC and 010/63/EU for animal experiments. All experimental procedures were allowed by the Ethical Committee for the Use of Laboratory Animals of VINČA Institute of Nuclear Sciences - National Institute of thе Republic of Serbia, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Republic of Serbia (protocol authorization numbers 02/11 and 323-07-04253/2016-05). Following chloral hydrate anaesthesia, 8 rats randomly assigned in 2VO groups were double occluded with 5–0 silk suture, while 4 animals from sham operated group were subjected to the same surgical procedure but without actual ligation of carotid arteries. Four hours following the surgical procedure animals from sham operated group, used as controls, were subcutaneously treated with vehicle (commercial flax oil, 1 mg/kg/day, S + V), while animals in 2VO groups were subjected to either progesterone (1.7 mg/kg/day, 2VO + P) or vehicle (commercial flax oil, 1 mg/kg/day, 2VO + V). Following 7 days lasting treatments, pro-oxidative/anti-oxidative balance was assessed according to the method of Alamdari et al. [1]; while activities of anti-oxidative enzymes were determined as described in the study by Tatalović et al. [2]. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test followed by Tukey’s post hoc test was employed to analyse data. The values of p < 0.05 or less were considered statistically significant.
Results: Obtained results demonstrate that compared to controls, 2VO and vehicle treatment induced a significant increase of pro-oxidants levels (p < 0.01) as well as the activities of both investigated anti-oxidative enzymes, although only the CAT activity was significantly increased (p < 0.05). Following progesterone treatment, pro-oxidants levels were lowered to the control level which caused the difference between the 2VO groups (p < 0.05). In parallel, no statistically significant change in SOD activity was observed, while CAT was upregulated (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: Presented results suggest that in the prefrontal cortex in the state of CH, progesterone, by modulating the CAT activity, downregulates overgenerated reactive species, reduces CH-induced oxidative stress and exerts anti-oxidative outcomes.

AB  - Atypical antipsychotic drugs (APDs) are being used to treat
acute psychotic episodes in schizophrenia and schizophrenia-related
diseases as well as a variety of nonpsychotic disorders.
Despite their effectiveness, we showed that APDs clozapine
(CLO), ziprasidone (ZIP) and sertindole (SER) increased oxidative
stress and reduced antioxidative defence capacity in rat kidneys
and heart. Given the scarcity of data about CLO, ZIP and
SER actions on the brain redox homeostasis, the goal of current
study was to investigate their impact on antioxidant enzymes:
total superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione
peroxidase (GPx) and glutathione reductase (GR) in brain of 3 month old male Wistar rats treated daily via intubation with
water (control group), CLO (45 mg/kg/day), ZIP (20 mg/kg/day)
or SER (2.5 mg/kg/day) for 6 weeks. There were no significant
changes in investigated parameters in CLO and ZIP groups.
However, in SER group the total SOD activity was decreased
while CAT and GPx activities were increased compared to control
group (One-way ANOVA with Tukey’s HSD test, P < 0.05).
Since both CAT and GPx catalyze decomposition of H2O2, their
increased activity in SER group suggests an elevated peroxide
pressure. This conclusion can be strengthened since the activity
of SOD can be decreased by elevated concentration of H2O2.
Our results suggest that SER could cause a redox imbalance in
brain with possible negative effects on mitochondrial respiration
and neural tissue metabolism. *The authors marked with an

AB  - Chronic use of atypical antipsychotics may produce hepatic damage. Atypical antipsychotics, including clozapine, sertindole, and ziprasidone, are extensively metabolized by the liver and this process generates toxic-free radical metabolic intermediates which may contribute to liver damage. The aim of this study was to investigate whether clozapine, sertindole, or ziprasidone affected hepatic antioxidant defense enzymes which consequently led to disturbed redox homeostasis. The expression and activity of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GR), catalase (CAT), and glutathione-S-transferases (GST) were measured in rat livers at doses corresponding to human antipsychotic therapy. Clozapine increased activity of SOD types 1 and 2, GR and GST, but reduced CAT activity. Sertindole elevated activities of both SODs. In ziprasidone-treated rats only decreased CAT activity was found. All three antipsychotics produced mild-to-moderate hepatic histopathological changes categorized as regenerative alterations. No apparent signs of immune cell infiltration, microvesicular or macrovesicular fatty change, or hepatocytes in mitosis were observed. In conclusion, a 4-week long daily treatment with clozapine, sertindole, or ziprasidone altered hepatic antioxidant enzyme activities and induced histopathological changes in liver. The most severe alterations were noted in clozapine-treated rats. Data indicate that redox disturbances may contribute to liver dysfunction after long-term atypical antipsychotic drug treatment.

abstract = "Chronic use of atypical antipsychotics may produce hepatic damage. Atypical antipsychotics, including clozapine, sertindole, and ziprasidone, are extensively metabolized by the liver and this process generates toxic-free radical metabolic intermediates which may contribute to liver damage. The aim of this study was to investigate whether clozapine, sertindole, or ziprasidone affected hepatic antioxidant defense enzymes which consequently led to disturbed redox homeostasis. The expression and activity of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GR), catalase (CAT), and glutathione-S-transferases (GST) were measured in rat livers at doses corresponding to human antipsychotic therapy. Clozapine increased activity of SOD types 1 and 2, GR and GST, but reduced CAT activity. Sertindole elevated activities of both SODs. In ziprasidone-treated rats only decreased CAT activity was found. All three antipsychotics produced mild-to-moderate hepatic histopathological changes categorized as regenerative alterations. No apparent signs of immune cell infiltration, microvesicular or macrovesicular fatty change, or hepatocytes in mitosis were observed. In conclusion, a 4-week long daily treatment with clozapine, sertindole, or ziprasidone altered hepatic antioxidant enzyme activities and induced histopathological changes in liver. The most severe alterations were noted in clozapine-treated rats. Data indicate that redox disturbances may contribute to liver dysfunction after long-term atypical antipsychotic drug treatment.",

AB  - The Eurasian griffon population in Serbia declined throughout the 20th century from widespread to a rare species, counting a total of 14 detected pairs in two colonies in western Serbia in the 1990s. Although the conservation measures have been implemented since the 1970s, they have had little effect on the further population decline until the supplementary feeding program started in 1989. In this paper, we present the results related to the population trends and reproduction parameters, following the establishment of a supplementary feeding program of the Eurasian griffon in Serbia based on a 34-year survey (1985–2018). By 2018, a total of 2458 tons of supplementary food was provided at three feeding stations. The population increased from 14 detected pairs in two colonies in 1992 to 262 detected pairs in four colonies in 2018. A total of 1807 juveniles were fledged, with breeding success – fledged chicks/laying pairs (i.e., breeding pairs) (0.81 ± 0.07; mean ± SD) and productivity – fledged chicks/detected pairs (0.57 ± 0.10). The amount of supplementary food was in a significant positive correlation with the number of detected and breeding pairs and the number of fledged juveniles. Furthermore, breeding parameters remained high despite the substantial increase in population size, implying that the population is far from saturation level. Our study emphasizes the importance of applied protection measures, especially supplementary feeding. The implementation of appropriate networks of feeding stations and the promotion of free-range livestock farming, as well as returning to the traditional way of disposing of dead cattle, would be a recommendation for future main conservation activities for the Eurasian griffon population in Serbia.

AB  - Pumpkin seed oil (PSO) possesses a protective potential against liver injury due to the presence of biologically active ingredients. Adult male albino rats were administrated PSO (per os, 2 mL/kg b.w./day) and a 12% ethanol solution in water, ad libitum, with an average intake of 8.14 g of ethanol/kg bw/day for 6 weeks. Congestion, hepatic central vein dila-tion, portal vein branch dilation, Kupffer cell hyperplasia, fatty liver changes, hepatocyte focal necrosis were observed after daily alcohol intake. All observed changes were reduced when PSO was ingested with ethanol. PSO intake itself induced discrete cellular edema, congestion and slight dilatation of the central and portal vain branches. Chronic ethanol intake elevated catalase (CAT) activity and glutathione reductase (GR) protein expression; concomitant PSO intake had no effect on CAT activity or GR protein expression. PSO intake decreased the activities of GR, glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and xanthine oxidase (XOD) in the liver, probably due to the ingestion of antioxidants. Intake of PSO and ethanol significantly decreased cytosolic superoxide dismutase (SOD1) and increased NF-κB protein expression compared to ethanol intake, suggesting that the protective effects of PSO were mediated by the NF-κB signaling pathway. Our results reveal a therapeutic potential of PSO in alcoholic liver disease.

AB  - Ibogaine effects are mediated by cellular receptors, ATP depletion followed by ROS
production and antioxidant enzyme activity elevation in a dose and time dependent manner. Since
the role of KATP channels and β -adrenoceptors in ROS cellular circuit was established here we
explored their role in ibogaine pro-antioxidant effectiveness. Single dose of ibogaine (10 mg/L i.e.,
28.8 µmol/L) was applied to isolated rat uterus (spontaneous and Ca2+-stimulated) and contractility
and antioxidant enzymes activity were monitored during 4 h. Ibogaine increased amplitude and
frequency of spontaneous active uteri immediately after addition that was prevented by propranolol
( 1 and  2 adrenoceptors selective antagonists) and glibenclamide (KATP sensitive channels inhibitor;
only frequency) pre-treatment. In Ca2+-stimulated uteri, ibogaine decreased both amplitude and
frequency after 4 h. Pre-treatment with propranolol abolished ibogaine induced amplitude lowering,
while glibenclamide had no effect. In both types of active uterus, ibogaine induced a decrease in
SOD1 and an increase in CAT activity after 2 h. In Ca2+-stimulated uterus, there was also a decrease
of SOD2 activity after 2 h. After 4 h, SOD1 activity returned to the baseline level, but GSH-Px activity
increased. Pre-treatment with both propranolol and glibenclamide abolished observed changes of
antioxidant enzymes activity suggesting that ibogaine pro-antioxidative effectiveness is β -adrenergic
receptors and KATP channels mediated.

AB  - Ibogaine induces rapid changes in cellular energetics followed by the elevation of antioxidant activities. As shown earlier in male rats, ibogaine treatment with both 1 and 20 mg/kg b.w. per os led to significant glycogenolytic activity in the liver. In this work, female rats treated with the same doses of ibogaine per os displayed lower liver glycogenolytic activity relative to males, dilatation of the central vein and branches of the portal vein, and increased concentration of thiols 6 h after treatment. These changes were followed by increased catalase activity and lipid peroxidation, and decreased xanthine oxidase activity after 24 h. In kidneys, mild histopathological changes were found in all treated animals, accompanied by a decrease of glutathione reductase (after 6 and 24 h at both doses) and an increase of catalase (6 h) and xanthine oxidase activity (6 and 24 h). Ibogaine did not affect antioxidant enzymes activity in erythrocytes. Bioavailability of ibogaine was two to three times higher in females than males, with similar kinetic profiles. Compared to previous results in males, ibogaine showed sex specific effect at the level of antioxidant cellular system. Effects of ibogaine in rats are sex- and tissue-specific, and also dose- and time-dependent.

AB  - Numerous natural compounds, like progesterone (P4), a sex steroid hormone, are highlighted as promising agents for treatment of different disorders including prolonged disturbance of blood flow. However, its action on several oxidative stress markers (pro/antioxidant balance, products of lipid peroxidation and phosphatidylcholine to lysophosphatidylcholine intensity ratio) and one of the major components of antioxidant system, superoxide dismutase in rat prefrontal cortex (PFC) following permanent bilateral occlusion of common carotid arteries (2VO) is not completely investigated. According to the obtained results, levels of investigated oxidative stress markers and SOD activity were altered in 2VO animals treated with vehicle, while P4 treatment returned them to control values.

However, its action on several oxidative stress markers (pro/antioxidant balance, products of lipid peroxidation and phosphatidylcholine to lysophosphatidylcholine intensity ratio) and one of the major components of antioxidant system, superoxide dismutase in rat prefrontal cortex (PFC) following permanent bilateral occlusion of common carotid arteries (2VO) is not completely investigated.

AB  - Different studies reported that patients with schizophrenia had lower cholesterol levels in blood compared to healthy controls. However, it is unclear whether changed cholesterol concentration and lipid status are a consequence of changed neurotransmitter metabolism intrinsic to origin of the disease or affect central nervous system neurotransmission and influence the development of psychiatric disorders. Anyway, schizophrenia treatment with atypical antipsychotic drugs (APD) additionally influences lipid status in blood and all families of APD agents can cause severe side effects including dyslipidemia. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate effects of 28-day treatment with recommended human daily dose of APD: ziprasidone, clozapine, sertindole on 3 months old healthy male rats’ levels of cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglyceride in the blood serum. Our results showed a decrease of both triglycerides and cholesterol in clozapine treated rats. In ziprasidone treated rats triglycerides and HDL were lower comparing to untreated controls. Treatment with sertindole had no effects on lipid blood serum levels. However, there were no changes of index of atherosclerosis in APD treated rats. Our results showed that treatment with clozapine and ziprasidone influence blood serum levels of lipids indicating altered lipid metabolism.

AB  - Our previous results showed that a single oral dose (1 or 20 mg/kg body weight) of the anti-addiction agent ibogaine induced in rats 6 and 24 h after administration glycogenolytic activity in hepatocytes, followed by a mild oxidative stress. In this work, we examined the in vivo effect of the same doses of ibogaine on rat kidney morphology, antioxidant enzyme (superoxide dismutases (SOD1 and 2), catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione- S-transferase) activities, and oxidative stress (TBARS) and redox (-SH groups) parameters. The dose of 1 mg/kg ibogaine induced an elevation in SOD1 activity and decreased GR activity after 6 and 24 h. GR activity was decreased at 6 and 24 h after 20 mg/kg ibogaine administration, suggesting changed redox homeostasis. After 24 h, we observed an increase in moderate morphological changes, without changes in urinalyses, indicating that kidney function was not measurably affected. Nevertheless, kidney-function monitoring during and following ibogaine use in human subjects is advisable.

AB  - In 2012, alcohol liver disease resulted in 3.3 million-5.9% of global deaths. This study introduced whey protection capacity against chronic alcohol-induced liver injury. Rats were orally administered to 12% ethanol solution in water (ad libitum, average 8.14 g of ethanol/kg body weight (b.w.)/day) alone or combined with whey ( per os, 2 g/kg b.w./day). After 6-week treatment, chronic ethanol consumption induced significant histopathological liver changes: congestion, central vein dilation, hepatic portal vein branch dilation, Kupffer cells hyperplasia, fatty liver changes, and hepatocytes focal necrosis. Ethanol significantly increased liver catalase activity and glutathione reductase protein expression without significant effects on antioxidative enzymes: glutathione peroxidase (GPx), copper-zinc-containing superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) and manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). Co-treatment with whey significantly attenuated pathohistological changes induced by ethanol ingestion and increased GSH-Px and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) protein expression. Our results showed positive effects of whey on liver chronically exposed to ethanol, which seem to be associated with NF-κB-GPx signaling.

AB  - Ibogaine is the main alkaloid in the root bark of Tabernanthe iboga plant which groves in Western-Central Africa. It has been used by natives to overcome fatigue, hunger and thirst, and in higher doses to provoke hallucinations. In the “ibogaine medical subculture” in Europe and America it is used to facilitate abstinence from variety of addictive substances (cocaine, heroin, methadone, alcohol…). It was hypothesized that adaptive changes in ATP-related cell energy homeostasis are important contributing factor, to ibogaine’s anti-addictive activity. Examinations on different experimental models showed that ibogaine caused rapid depletion of ATP accompanied by increased production of reactive oxygen species and the activation of antioxidative enzymes, as well as upregulation of energy related enzymes. Our goal was to investigate the effects of ibogaine oral application on redox balance in rat brain and energy metabolism in liver. The later was estimated by accessing amount of glycogen reserves. The null hypothesis was that ibogaine had no effect on the activity of antioxidative enzymes, concentration of lipid peroxides and free sulfhydryl groups in rat brain, or on the amount of glycogen in liver. In this study 3-month-old female Wistar rats were treated with a single dose 20 mg/kg body weight of ibogaine via gavage. Rats were sacrificed 6 or 24 h after treatment; brain and perfunded liver samples were homogenised and sonicated. Liver sample was also prepared for histological analysis. We measured the activities of antioxidative enzymes, namely total superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), glutathione reductase (GR) and the activity of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) a xenobiotic detoxification enzyme family member. Concentrations of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and protein and nonprotein free sulfhydryl groups (–SH) were measured in brain sonicates. Amount of glycogen in liver was determined based on PAS staining. Results were analysed by One-way ANOVA with Tukey's HSD post hoc test, p<0.05. There were no significant changes of measured antioxidative enzymes activity in brain neither 6 nor 24 h after treatment with ibogaine. Also, total activity of GSTs remained unaltered. On the other hand, concentration of TBARS was significantly increased 6 h after treatment while after 24 h TBARS concentration was the same as in controls. Treatment with ibogaine caused an increase of protein free –SH groups concentration which was more pronounced after 24 h. However, the concentration of nonprotein free –SH groups was decreased in brain of treated rats but also more prominently after 24 h. Histological analysis of liver showed that amount of glycogen was decreased in treated rats. Glycogen depletion in the liver of treated rats was greater in 6 h group compared to 24 h group. Increased concentrations of TBARS suggest increased lipid in brain of treated rats. Decreased concentration of nonprotein free –SH groups suggests decreased concentration of reduced glutathione, the main source of nonprotein –SH groups in cells. These findings coincide with ibogaine-induced transient burst in cellular respiration followed by intensive production of reactive oxygen species, described in literature. Despite these indicators of oxidative stress there is no change in the activity of any antioxidative enzyme, not even after 6 h. Unaltered activity of GSTs suggest that applied dose of ibogaine doesn’t have an acute toxic effect on brain. Finally, alterations in glycogen amount in hepatocytes suggest a transient depletion of energy reserves, which are on their way to recovery already 24 h after treatment. All of the aforementioned suggest that after oral administration of ibogaine there is rapid transient changes in redox and energetic homeostasis in brain similar to those described on other experimental models. It seems that antioxidative defense system is capable to preserve redox homeostasis within first 6 h, but some consequences in the form of oxidative damage are still present. Since these are all energy-intensive processes, required energy may have been obtained at the expense of liver glycogen. Having in mind a proposed role of energetic and redox related changes in anti-addictive effects of ibogaine, it is essential to investigate redox balance and energy metabolism in brain within the first hours after ibogaine application.

Finally, alterations in glycogen amount in hepatocytes suggest a transient depletion of energy reserves, which are on their way to recovery already 24 h after treatment. All of the aforementioned suggest that after oral administration of ibogaine there is rapid transient changes in redox and energetic homeostasis in brain similar to those described on other experimental models. It seems that antioxidative defense system is capable to preserve redox homeostasis within first 6 h, but some consequences in the form of oxidative damage are still present. Since these are all energy-intensive processes, required energy may have been obtained at the expense of liver glycogen. Having in mind a proposed role of energetic and redox related changes in anti-addictive effects of ibogaine, it is essential to investigate redox balance and energy metabolism in brain within the first hours after ibogaine application.",

AB  - MgSO4 is used as a tocolytic agent. It is considered to be a calcium channel antagonist, but a different mechanism of its action might be involved. The aim of this study was to examine the contribution of calcium concentrations and potassium channels in the mechanism of MgSO4-mediated uterine relaxation. Isolated uteri from female Wister rats were treated with increasing MgSO4 concentrations (0.1-30 mM). MgSO4 induced dose-dependent inhibition of spontaneous activity. Addition of Ca2+ (6 mM and 12 mM) stimulated uterine contractile activity and attenuated the inhibitory activity of MgSO4. In order to analyze the role of different subtypes of potassium channels, Ca2+-stimulated uteri were pretreated with glibenclamide (Glib), a selective ATP-sensitive potassium channel inhibitor (KATP), tetraethylammonium (TEA), a non-specific inhibitor of large conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (BKCa), and 4-aminopyridine (4-AP), a voltage-sensitive potassium channel inhibitor (Kv), at concentrations that had no effect per se. Pretreatment with 4-AP had no effect on MgSO4-mediated relaxation of Ca2+-stimulated uteri. The relaxing effect of MgSO4 was potentiated by pretreatment with glibenclamide. Pretreatment with TEA attenuated the MgSO4-mediated decrease in frequency. Our results suggest that MgSO4 acts as a general calcium antagonist that influences Ca2+-mediated potassium channels. Furthermore, it seems that MgSO4 uterine relaxation activity is partially mediated by selective ATP-sensitive potassium channels, suggesting an ATP-dependent role.

AB  - Ibogaine, administered as a single oral dose (1-25 mg/kg body weight), has been used as an addiction-interrupting agent. Its effects persist for up to 72 h. Ex vivo results showed that ibogaine induced cellular energy consumption and restitution, followed by increased reactive oxygen species production and antioxidant activity. Therefore, the aim of this work was to explore the effect of a single oral dose of ibogaine (1 or 20 mg/kg body weight) on antioxidative defenses in rat liver and erythrocytes. Six and 24 h after ibogaine administration, histological examination showed glycogenolytic activity in hepatocytes, which was highest after 24 h in animals that received 20 mg/kg ibogaine. There were no changes in the activities of superoxide dismutases, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase and glutathione-S-transferase in the liver and erythrocytes after ibogaine treatment, regardless of the dose. Hepatic xanthine oxidase activity was elevated in rats that received 20 mg/kg compared to the controls (p<0.01), suggesting faster adenosine turnover. TBARS concentration was elevated in the group treated with 1 mg/kg after 24 h compared to the controls (p<0.01), suggesting mild oxidative stress. Our results show that ibogaine treatment influenced hepatic redox homeostasis, but not sufficiently to remodel antioxidant enzyme activities at 6 and 24 h post-ibogaine application.

AB  - Ibogaine is an indole alkaloid originally extracted from the root bark of the African rainforest shrub Tabernanthe iboga. It has been explored as a treatment for substance abuse because it interrupts drug addiction and relieves withdrawal symptoms. However, it has been shown that ibogaine treatment leads to a sharp and transient fall in cellular ATP level followed by an increase of cellular respiration and ROS production. Since contractile tissues are sensitive to changes in the levels of ATP and ROS, here we investigated an ibogaine-mediated link between altered redox homeostasis and uterine contractile activity. We found that low concentrations of ibogaine stimulated contractile activity in spontaneously active uteri, but incremental increase of doses inhibited it. Inhibitory concentrations of ibogaine led to decreased SOD1 and elevated GSH-Px activity, but doses that completely inhibited contractions increased CAT activity. Western blot analyses showed that changes in enzyme activities were not due to elevated enzyme protein concentrations but posttranslational modifications. Changes in antioxidant enzyme activities point to a vast concentration-dependent increase in H2O2 level. Knowing that extracellular ATP stimulates isolated uterus contractility, while H2O2 has an inhibitory effect, this concentration-dependent stimulation/inhibition could be linked to ibogaine-related alterations in ATP level and redox homeostasis.

AB  - We studied the effects of whey and pumpkin seed oil supplementation on the biochemical parameters in blood serum of male rats after chronic ad libitum alcohol consumption. The levels of AST, ALT, total bilirubin, ALP, LDH, triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, VLDL, triglyceride/HDL ratio, total cholesterol/HDL ratio (cholesterol ratio) and LDL/HDL ratio (index of atherosclerosis) were determined in rats after six weeks of treatment with: (i) ethanol (12% ethanol, ad libitum), (ii) whey (2 g/kg per day), (iii) pumpkin seed oil (2 mL/kg per day), (iv) both ethanol and whey, and (v) both ethanol and pumpkin seed oil. The results showed no changes in the levels of AST, ALT, total bilirubin, ALP, total cholesterol, HDL and VLDL in alcoholic rats when compared to the controls (fed with a standard laboratory diet ad libitum) and rats supplemented with whey and pumpkin seed oil. Our results suggest that alcohol consumption in small doses for 6 weeks changes lipid metabolism and significantly elevates the LDL/HDL ratio (index of atherosclerosis) but does not induce extensive liver damage. Ethanol consumption in our experimental conditions lowered the triglyceride level as well as the triglyceride/HDL ratio, suggesting lipid redistribution and the induction of some cardio-protective effect. However, ethanol induced a higher index of atherosclerosis. Pumpkin seed oil showed some protective potential in alcoholic rats by lowering the total cholesterol/HDL ratio, but it elevated the LDH. Whey consumption prevented elevation of the atherosclerosis index, pointing to its protective role, probably through the redistribution of lipids. However, whey in combination with ethanol elevated LDH.

AB  - Potent neurosteroid progesterone (P4) strongly influences functional recovery in
various models of neurological diseases. However, its protective antioxidative
potential is not well established in stance of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH)
that induces ischemic milieu in the brain. CCH results in a cascade of events
leading to uncontrolled generation of 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), a hallmark of
oxidative stress that can be abolished by mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme
manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). Post-ischemic brain regeneration
requires preservation of cerebral blood flow that could be achieved by production of
vasodilatator nitric oxide (NO), synthesized by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS)
whose actions are regulated by phosphorylation at various sites. Decreased
phosphorylation of eNOS at Thr495 during antioxidative response, promotes its
activity and NO production, contributing to neuroprotection. Given the scarcity of
data about P4 antioxidative actions in prefrontal cortex during CCH, current study
assessed the level of HNE and NO, as well as MnSOD activity and the extent of
eNOS phosphorylation at Thr495 in rats subjected to sham operation and injected
with vehicle (commercial flax oil) or animals with permanent occlusion of common
carotid arteries and treated either with vehicle or P4 (1.7 mg/kg/day) for 7 days.
Results indicate that P4 decreases CCH-induced HNE generation and MnSOD
activity, diminishes inactivation of eNOS and increases production of protective NO.

abstract = "Potent neurosteroid progesterone (P4) strongly influences functional recovery in
various models of neurological diseases. However, its protective antioxidative
potential is not well established in stance of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH)
that induces ischemic milieu in the brain. CCH results in a cascade of events
leading to uncontrolled generation of 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), a hallmark of
oxidative stress that can be abolished by mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme
manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). Post-ischemic brain regeneration
requires preservation of cerebral blood flow that could be achieved by production of
vasodilatator nitric oxide (NO), synthesized by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS)
whose actions are regulated by phosphorylation at various sites. Decreased
phosphorylation of eNOS at Thr495 during antioxidative response, promotes its
activity and NO production, contributing to neuroprotection. Given the scarcity of
data about P4 antioxidative actions in prefrontal cortex during CCH, current study
assessed the level of HNE and NO, as well as MnSOD activity and the extent of
eNOS phosphorylation at Thr495 in rats subjected to sham operation and injected
with vehicle (commercial flax oil) or animals with permanent occlusion of common
carotid arteries and treated either with vehicle or P4 (1.7 mg/kg/day) for 7 days.
Results indicate that P4 decreases CCH-induced HNE generation and MnSOD
activity, diminishes inactivation of eNOS and increases production of protective NO.
In conclusion, P4 might downscale oxidative stress and boost antioxidant defense
capacity in CCH model, pointing investigated parameters as potential targets of P4
neuroprotective actions. Financially supported by MNTPR RS, grants 173044 and

AB  - Atypical antipsychotics produce severe side effects including myocarditis that may be attributed to oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of clozapine, ziprasidone, and sertindole on rat heart morphology and determine whether redox imbalane plays a role in development of histopathological changes. Adult 3-month-old male Wistar rats were treated with recommended daily dose for selected drugs. After 4 week treatment histopathological analysis of the heart was performed and expression and activity of antioxidant enzymes determined. All examined drugs induced histopathological changes that were characterized as toxic myocarditis. Degenerative changes in cardiomyocytes were accompanied by lymphocytic infiltration as well as pericardial histopathological alterations in all treated groups. The least prominent changes were observed in sertindole-treated animals, and most severe with clozapine. Clozapine increased superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) activity while ziprasidone reduced glutathione reductase (GR) activity. Sertindole exerted no marked effect on antioxidant enzyme function in the heart even though myocardial degeneration was noted. In conclusion, treatment with clozapine or ziprasidone induced pathophysiological alterations in rat heart, which appeared to be associated disturbances in antioxidant capacity.

AB  - Skin can acquire cadmium (Cd) by oral route, but there is paucity of data concerning cutaneous effects of this metal. Cd acquired by oral route can affect skin wound healing, but the effect of Cd on other activities involved in skin homeostasis, including skin immunity, are not explored. Using the rat model of 30-day oral administration of Cd (5 ppm and 50 ppm) in drinking water, basic aspects of immune-relevant activity of epidermal cells were examined. Dose-dependent Cd deposition in the the skin was observed (0.035 ± 0.02 µg/g and 0.127 ± 0.04 µg/g at 5 ppm and 50 ppm, respectively, compared to 0.012 ± 0.009 µg/g at 0 ppm of Cd). This resulted in skin inflammation (oxidative stress at both Cd doses and dose-dependent structural changes in the skin and the presence/activation of innate immunity cells). At low Cd dose inflammatory response (nitric oxide and IL-1β) was observed. Other inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF) response occurred at 50 ppm, which was increased further following skin sensitization with contact allergen dinitro-chlorobenzene (DNCB). Epidermal cells exposed to both Cd doses enhanced concanavalin A (ConA)-stimulated lymphocyte production of IL-17. This study showed for the first time the effect of the metal which gained access to the skin via gut on immune reactivity of epidermal cells. Presented data might be relevant for the link between dietary Cd and the risk of skin pathologies.

AB  - In recent years, computed tomography (CT) has become very common in veterinary medicine. It is well known that testicles are organs with high radiosensitivity and their function can be impaired even after exposure to low radiation doses. In this work, we calculated the absorbed radiation doses after CT was performed with different voltage/current levels and correlated it with the activity of antioxidant enzymes in rabbit testicles. Two hours after CT, the activities of catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were increased in the testicles of animals that received an absorbed dose of 29.2 mGy. The same changes, along with elevated glutathione reductase (GR) activity, were observed after 7 days in animals that received the highest absorbed dose (46.3 mGy). It would appear that absorbed doses above 27.8 mGy provoked the antioxidant reaction but the time scale of the reaction was dose-dependent. Examination of the obtained results revealed that the main denominator of CT influence was a higher current. Our results suggest that CT influences the antioxidant status in rabbit testicles. The changes in antioxidant enzyme activities were dose- and time-dependent and influenced by the applied current.
