Background: It is known that regular physical activity reduces anxiety.Low anxiety levels affect mood, emotions, and empathy.Oxytocin a powerful hormone regulates social interaction, sexual reproduction, maternal-infant bonding, milk release, empathy, anxiety.Empathy an important behavior in the living community; also for sportsmen during sportive competition daily life, because are role model of people. Aims:To investigate effects voluntary on oxytocin, anxiety, empathy as well relationship...

<title>Abstract</title> Magnesium (Mg) is crucial in numerous physiological functions, including neuromuscular activity, energy metabolism, and cognitive processes. Despite its significance, the bioavailability functional impact of different Mg formulations remain underexplored. This study investigates long-term effects chronic organic supplementation (citrate, glycinate, malate) on tissue-specific distribution outcomes rats. Thirty-eight adult Sprague Dawley rats were allocated into control...

Physical exercise improves learning and memory abilities by increasing the levels of several growth factors in hippocampus. One factor, vascular endothelial factor (VEGF), is primarily produced muscles not only increases periphery during but can also cross blood-brain barrier. The aim this study to investigate effects regular aerobic chronic on different types muscle fibers relationships between learning/memory induced-VEGF. Following a one-week adaptation period, male rats underwent...

AIM:To investigate the effects of different magnesium forms on tissue damage, cognitive and emotional behavioural impairment after mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). MATERIAL METHODS:Rats were divided into 5 groups (control, trauma, sulphate, citrate, acetyl taurate) following head empathy-like behaviour, anxiety-like behaviour (elevated plus maze open field tests), depression (forced swim test) measured.The rats then sacrificed 12 days later.Oxytocin, vasopressin receptors levels in...

Peripheral nerve traumas are common injuries in young adult population. The myriad of techniques and medications have been defined to obtain better recovery but none them was proved superior effect. This study aims determine the anti-fibrotic effect decorin on sciatic injury order enhance functional outcome.24 12-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats (350-400 gr) were divided into four groups. dissected exposed; a full-thickness laceration created 1.5 cm proximal bifurcation point distal where...

Hypoxia occurs in the splanchnic region during exercise associated with sympathetic activity.In elderly, vascular insufficiency and low endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression are observed.Compared to young people, signals of older individuals blunted more resistant blood flow alterations exercise.VEGF induces vasodilation responses hence may retain bed.We hypothesized that regular mild-intensity triggers weak VEGF digestive tract elderly.The effects on levels VEGF, superoxide dismutase...

Objective: In the elderly, erectile dysfunction and hypogonadism have become more important due to extension of human life. The most morphological changes aged testis are associated with vascular deterioration, chronic hypoxia, fibrosis hormonal changes. Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) directly related these along sperm motility viability. contribution VEGF MMP-2 structural functional disturbances in is unknown. aim this study was determine levels...

Empathy is defined as the ability to recognize, process, and respond another's emotional state. In society, a lack of empathy has been linked violence aggresive behaviors. Paracetamol (acetaminophen) one most widely used nonprescription (over-the-counter) analgesics globally, it already attributed decrease in empathic behavior humans. This study investigates effects paracetamol's metabolite AM404 CB1 receptor antagonist rimonabant on empathy-like Sprague Dawley rats' endocannabinoid system...
