Hippocampal melatonin receptors modulate seizure threshold.
PURPOSE The pineal hormone melatonin has been shown to enhance hippocampal excitability. We therefore investigated whether inactivation of hippocampal melatonin receptors affects behavioral seizures. METHODS Intrahippocampal infusions were performed in rats to study the effect of different melatonin receptor antagonists on behavioral activity, EEG, and seizure susceptibility. Experiments were...

متن کاملNeuregulin and dopamine modulation of hippocampal gamma oscillations is dependent on dopamine D4 receptors.
The neuregulin/ErbB signaling network is genetically associated with schizophrenia and modulates hippocampal γ oscillations--a type of neuronal network activity important for higher brain processes and altered in psychiatric disorders. Because neuregulin-1 (NRG-1) dramatically increases extracellular dopamine levels in the hippocampus, we investigated the relationship between NRG/ErbB and dopam...
متن کاملRapid seizure-induced reduction of benzodiazepine and Zn2+ sensitivity of hippocampal dentate granule cell GABAA receptors.
Fast synaptic inhibition in the forebrain is mediated primarily by GABA acting on GABAA receptors (GABARs). GABARs are regulated by numerous positive (barbiturates, benzodiazepines, and neurosteroids) and negative (picrotoxin, bicuculline, and Zn2+) allosteric modulators. The sensitivity of GABARs to GABA and to allosteric modulators changes gradually during normal development, during developme...
متن کاملEffect of administration of ascorbic acid and dopamine D2 receptors agonist in the hippocampal CA1 area on spatial learning and memory in adult male rats
Previous studies have shown that ascorbic acid (AA) plays a crucial role in mammalian brain as avitamin and neuronal modulator. There is increasing evidence indicating that dopaminergic system and AAcould affect learning and memory processes. In addition, vitamin C acts as a dopamine antagonist in thebrain. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the intra-hippocampal co-administration of ...
