RESEARCH AREAS
Main topics of research and the methods used in our lab are listed below. Effects of various drugs or chemicals in normal tissues or in experimentally induced pathologic conditions are being investigated by using biochemical methods, and/or in vivo or invivo experimental methods. In our labarotory many models of psychopharmacological tests in animals are carried out. Many projects on pharmacology are being realized in our laboratory.
Experimental Models
I. In vitro organ bath
a) Isolated tissue studies:
√ Aorta
√ Ileum
√ Bladder
√ Corpus cavernosum
b) Isolated organ perfusion studies:
√ Ileum
2. In vivo studies:
a) Behavioural research
√ Spinal ve supraspinal analgesia
√ Thermal ve mechanical hyperalgesia, allodynia
√ Inflammation
√ Motor coordşnation and neurological examination
√ Convulsion
√ Abstinence sydrome (morphine, nicotine etc)
√ Depression and anxiety
√ Learning and memory
b) Recording systems
√ Blood pressure
√ Heart rate
√ Intracavernosal pressure
c) Experimental disease models
√ Burn
√ Sepsis
√ Decubitus ulcer
√ Gastric Ulcer
√ Colitis
√ Diabetes
√ Hypotiroidism
√ Arthritis
√ Acute and Chronic renal failure
√ Hepatic failure
√ Cirrhosis
√ Ischemia/ reperfusion injury (liver, kidney, abdominal aorta, brain)
√ Cystitis, Pyelonephritis
√ Lung fibrosis
√ Ionizing Irradiation
√ Closed head trauma
√ Epilepsia (chemically and electrically induced)
√ Morphine dependence (in vivo and in vitro)
√ Mononeuropathy
√ Stress models (in vivo)
√ Alzheimer
√ Inflamation (paw, pleurisy, air-pouch, arthritis)
√ Drug toxicity
