Selenium (Se) nanoparticles have been proposed as food supplements. However, the particle formulation may exert unexpected toxicity. The aim was therefore to compare toxicity of low doses of Se nanoparticles and the dissolved, ionized Se species selenite. Female rats were

Cimicifuga racemosa (L.) Nutt. (syn. Actaea racemosa L., black cohosh) is used to relieve menopausal hot flashes, although clinical studies have provided conflicting data, and the active constituent(s) and mechanism(s) of action remain unknown. Because serotonergic receptors and transporters are

Serotonin is frequently analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with electrochemical detection. However, the accuracy of these methods may be affected by the presence of certain drugs. We describe for the first time the interference of paracetamol in therapeutic dosages

To evaluate the changes in plasma and platelet serotonin (5-HT) as markers of the serotoninergic system in equines, 5-HT content was measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in deproteinized plasma obtained from peripheral blood samples of 12 clinically healthy
Pharmacological effects of 5-hydroxykynuramine (5-HK) were investigated in chicken whole blood. It was shown that 5-HK had a time-depending inhibiting activity on platelet aggregation induced by 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). Experiments were carried out in order to determine whether the inhibitory effect
