Pharmacological Approaches to Fat Loss: Targeting
... The assertion that beta-agonists such as clenbuterol and ephedrine have no anabolic effects in humans is premature. There is a large difference in the dosages normally given to animals (4 mg/kg) as compared to humans (up to 40 µg/day). Slow release Salbutamol has been shown to increase voluntary mus ...

Serotonergic Modulation of Rat Pineal Gland Activity: In Vivo
... Experiment 2. The aim of this experiment was to assess the effects of 5-HT receptor activation by m-CPP on the pineal melatonin production during the night, when the gland is physiologically activated by NE. To this purpose, 54 rats (weighing 200 –250 g) were used in this experiment. At 9:00 PM, in ...

When administered to mice by the intravenous (iv) route, 1 exhibited a high plasma clearance of 115 (mL/min)/kg (Table 3), above mouse liver blood flow (approximately 90 (mL/min)/kg), and consequently 1 had a relatively short plasma half-life (<1 h). We postulated that this was predominantly due to ...

Nicotinic agonist
A nicotinic agonist is a drug that mimics the action of acetylcholine (ACh) at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). The nAChR is named for its affinity for nicotine.Examples include nicotine (by definition), acetylcholine (the endogenous agonist of nAChRs), choline, epibatidine, lobeline, varenicline and cytisine.
