Striatal dopamine levels and changes in mitochondrial function following chronic 3-nitropropionic acid treatment in rats
An irreversible inhibitor of complex II in the mitochondria, 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP), induces bilateral striatal lesions with many neuropathological features of Huntington’s disease (HD) in rats. It is widely used as a model of HD. Chronic systemic treatment of 3-NP for 4 days in rats (10, 15 and 20 mg/kg) caused a significant dose-dependent reduction in succinate dehydrogenase activity, w...

متن کاملDopamine enhances spatiotemporal spread of activity in rat prefrontal cortex.
Dopaminergic modulation of prefrontal cortex (PFC) is important for neuronal integration in this brain region known to be involved in cognition and working memory. Because of the complexity and heterogeneity of the effect of dopamine on synaptic transmission across layers of the neocortex, dopamine's net effect on local circuits in PFC is difficult to predict. We have combined whole cell patch-...
متن کاملCFTR activity and mitochondrial function☆
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a frequent and lethal autosomal recessive disease, caused by mutations in the gene encoding the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR). Before the discovery of the CFTR gene, several hypotheses attempted to explain the etiology of this disease, including the possible role of a chloride channel, diverse alterations in mitochondrial functions, the overe...
متن کاملResponses of Muscle Mitochondrial Function to Physical Activity: A Literature Review
Skeletal muscles play an active role in regulating the metabolic homeostasis through their ability for relating to adipose tissue and endocrine hormones. Contraction of the skeletal muscle leads to increased release of several myokines, such as irisin, which is able to interact with the adipose tissue. Physical activity promotes the irisin mechanism by augmenting the peroxisomes (PGC1-α) in the...
