Glutamatergic enteric neurons.
We tested the hypothesis that glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the CNS, is also an excitatory neurotransmitter in the enteric nervous system (ENS). Glutamate immunoreactivity was found in cholinergic enteric neurons, many of which were identified as sensory by their co-storage of substance P and/or calbindin. Glutamate immunoreactivity was concentrated in terminal varicositie...
متن کاملPersistent Histamine Excitation of Glutamatergic Preoptic Neurons
Thermoregulatory neurons of the median preoptic nucleus (MnPO) represent a target at which histamine modulates body temperature. The mechanism by which histamine excites a population of MnPO neurons is not known. In this study it was found that histamine activated a cationic inward current and increased the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration, actions that had a transient component as well as a ...
متن کاملDopamine neurons make glutamatergic synapses in vitro.
Interactions between dopamine and glutamate play prominent roles in memory, addiction, and schizophrenia. Several lines of evidence have suggested that the ventral midbrain dopamine neurons that give rise to the major CNS dopaminergic projections may also be glutamatergic. To examine this possibility, we double immunostained ventral midbrain sections from rat and monkey for the dopamine-synthet...
متن کاملDopamine selects glutamatergic inputs to neostriatal neurons.
Glutamatergic synaptic potentials induced by micromolar concentrations of the potassium conductance blocker 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) were recorded intracellularly from rat neostriatal neurons in the presence of 10 microM bicuculline (BIC). These synaptic potentials originate from neostriatal cortical and thalamic afferents and were completely blocked by 10 microM 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-di...
متن کاملTonic glutamatergic drive of RVLM vasomotor neurons?
THE ROSTRAL VENTROLATERAL MEDULLA (RVLM) plays a critical role in the maintenance of baseline arterial pressure (AP) in all species in which it has been examined, and it appears to be the primary site responsible for the tonic supraspinal drive of sympathetic vasomotor outflow and AP, at least in anesthetized animals. For example, inhibition of the RVLM in anesthetized rats, cats, and rabbits r...
