Endocannabinoids and striatal function: implications for addiction-related behaviours
Since the identification and cloning of the major cannabinoid receptor expressed in the brain almost 25 years ago research has highlighted the potential of drugs that target the endocannabinoid system for treating addiction. The endocannabinoids, anandamide and 2-arachidonoyl glycerol, are lipid-derived metabolites found in abundance in the basal ganglia and other brain areas innervated by the ...
متن کاملEndocannabinoids mediate bidirectional striatal spike-timing-dependent plasticity.
KEY POINTS Although learning can arise from few or even a single trial, synaptic plasticity is commonly assessed under prolonged activation. Here, we explored the existence of rapid responsiveness of synaptic plasticity at corticostriatal synapses in a major synaptic learning rule, spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP). We found that spike-timing-dependent depression (tLTD) progressively dis...
متن کاملPerspectives in Pharmacology Endocannabinoids and Vascular Function
Marijuana is used by humans for its psychoactive and medicinal effects. The active constituents of marijuana, the cannabinoids, exert effects via a G protein-coupled receptor, CB1. Two arachidonic acid analogs, N-arachidonylethanolamine and 2-arachidonylglycerol are hypothesized to function as endogenous ligands of the CB1 receptor. The cannabinoids exert significant vascular effects in humans ...
متن کاملcompactifications and function spaces on weighted semigruops
chapter one is devoted to a moderate discussion on preliminaries, according to our requirements. chapter two which is based on our work in (24) is devoted introducting weighted semigroups (s, w), and studying some famous function spaces on them, especially the relations between go (s, w) and other function speces are invesigated. in fact this chapter is a complement to (32). one of the main fea...
15 صفحه اولStriatal 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...
