Hippocampal noradrenaline release in awake, freely moving rats is regulated by alpha-2 adrenoceptors but not by adenosine receptors.
In this study, the ability of the nonselective adenosine receptor antagonist caffeine to influence the concentration of noradrenaline in the central nervous system was investigated, and its effects compared with those of alpha-2 adrenoceptor modulation. The technique of microdialysis in association with microbore high-performance liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection was used to m...
متن کاملUncontrollable, but not controllable, stress desensitizes 5-HT1A receptors in the dorsal raphe nucleus.
Uncontrollable stressors produce behavioral changes that do not occur if the organism can exercise behavioral control over the stressor. Previous studies suggest that the behavioral consequences of uncontrollable stress depend on hypersensitivity of serotonergic neurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN), but the mechanisms involved have not been determined. We used ex vivo single-unit recording...
متن کاملPostjunctional α2-adrenoceptors are not present in proximal arterioles of rat intestine.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate two potential stimuli for nitric oxide (NO) release in rat intestinal arterioles during sympathetic nerve activation. To determine whether these vessels contain endothelial α2-adrenoceptors linked to thel-arginine-NO pathway, intravital microscopy was used to study the response of first-order arterioles (1As, 20-40 μm ID) to direct application of 1) the...
متن کاملThe ventral hippocampus, but not the dorsal hippocampus is critical for learned approach-avoidance decision making.
The resolution of an approach-avoidance conflict induced by ambivalent information involves the appraisal of the incentive value of the outcomes and associated stimuli to orchestrate an appropriate behavioral response. Much research has been directed at delineating the neural circuitry underlying approach motivation and avoidance motivation separately. Very little research, however, has examine...
متن کاملFlicker adaptation desensitizes the magnocellular but not the parvocellular pathway.
PURPOSE Anatomical and physiological studies show that in primates, visual information is conveyed through two parallel pathways, including the magnocellular (MC-) and parvocellular (PC-) pathways. However, the functional separation between the two pathways remains controversial and challenging. To resolve this, we show a psychophysical approach to desensitize the inferred MC-pathway of human o...
