    Blind mole rats (BMRs) are solitary rodents which are tolerant to severe hypoxia. The aim of this study is to reveal the changes in nitric oxide (NO) and nitric oxide enzymes (NOS), which are involved in many physiological and pathological processes related with hypoxia, in BMRs under severe hypoxia. For this purpose, 12 subadult (11-15 moths) male Nannospalax nehringi were captured in Kars location. Captured BMRs were divided into two groups as Normoxic (NG) and Hypoxic (HG) randomly (n=6). NG were kept in completely dark, normoxic conditions for 52 h. HG were kept inside completely dark glovebox chamber with 7% oxygen flow for 52 h. After experimental protocol, NG were sacrificed under normoxic conditions and HG were sacrificed inside glovebox chamber with 7% oxygen. NO, iNOS, eNOS, nNOS and MDA levels of plasm and homogenized tissue samples were detected spectrophotometrically. All parameters of each sample were found to be high in HG compared to NG. But especially, NO was high in the lung tissues of HG. Additionally eNOS level of the kidney, liver and lung, iNOS levels of the liver and eNOS, and nNOS levels of the brain were found to be markedly high. Consequently, our data on NO and NOS enzyme production in Nannospalax nehringi tissues under hypoxia are compatible with the data obtained from other animals, but it contains differences in some points. We believe that these differences are different evolutionary adaptations of BMRs to hypoxia..

    Premedication for intrathecal anesthesia in dogs: Xylazine versus propofol
    (Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, 2020) Yayla, Sadık; Kılıç, Engin; Öǧün, Metin; Çatalkaya, Emine; Ermutlu, Celal; Aydın, Uğur; Özaydın, İsa
    This study aimed to compare the effects of xylazine or propofol before intrathecal (IT) bupivacaine administration in dogs. The study was conducted in two groups of 10 dogs each. In group I (XG), intrathecal injection of 20 mg bupivacaine was administered into the subarachnoid space in the lumbosacral area after treatment with 1 mg/kg intravenous (iv) xylazine. In group II (PG), 4 mg/kg iv propofol was administered before IT bupivacaine administration. The onset, duration, and magnitude of sensory block (scale 0-3) were determined using the pin-prick test throughout the anesthesia. Duration of surgery (XG: 47.20 ± 5.01 min, PG: 50.85 ± 6.97 min) and duration of anesthesia (XG: 92.20 ± 7.02 min, PG: 94.50 ± 7.26 min) were not significantly different between the groups. This study concludes that propofol administration before IT anesthesia with bupivacaine maintains safe levels of IT anesthesia and can therefore be used as an alternative to xylazine treatment. © 2021 The author(s).
