Nitrergic neurons of the dorsal raphe nucleus encode information about stress duration
Nitrergic neurons of the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) may play a role in physiological stress responses. The caudal lateral wings (CLW) are unique compared to other rostral-caudal DRN sub-regions because they contain distinct nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS) populations that are independent of tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH). NOS neurons in the CLW are also highly activated during acute restraint st...
متن کاملSerotonin neurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus encode reward signals.
The dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) is involved in organizing reward-related behaviours; however, it remains unclear how genetically defined neurons in the DRN of a freely behaving animal respond to various natural rewards. Here we addressed this question using fibre photometry and single-unit recording from serotonin (5-HT) neurons and GABA neurons in the DRN of behaving mice. Rewards including suc...
متن کاملEffects of aging on stress-related responses of serotonergic neurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus of male rats
Responses to various stressors in the brain change with age. However, little is known about the neural mechanisms underlying age-dependent changes in stress responses. It is known that serotonin, a stress-related transmitter, is closely related with the regulation of stress responses in the brain and that serotonergic function is modulated by various factors, including estrogen, in both sexes. ...
متن کاملBiophysical properties and computational modeling of calcium spikes in serotonergic neurons of the dorsal raphe nucleus
Serotonergic neurons of the dorsal raphe nuclei, with their extensive innervation of nearly the whole brain have important modulatory effects on many cognitive and physiological processes. They play important roles in clinical depression and other psychiatric disorders. In order to quantify the effects of serotonergic transmission on target cells it is desirable to construct computational model...
متن کاملAllopregnanolone and ganaxolone increase the firing activity of dorsal raphe nucleus serotonergic neurons in female rats.
Accumulating evidence suggest a reciprocal interaction between neurosteroids, especially 5alpha-pregnan-3alpha-ol,20-one (3alpha,5alpha-THP, allopregnanolone), and the serotonergic (5-HT) system. Both 5-HT and neurosteroids seem to play an important role in the pathophysiology of major depression. We have previously shown that a 7-d treatment with 3alpha,5alpha-THP drastically increases the spo...
