Presynaptic I1-imidazoline receptors reduce GABAergic synaptic transmission in striatal medium spiny neurons.
Imidazoline receptors are expressed widely in the CNS. In the present study, whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were made from medium spiny neurons in dorsal striatum slices from the rat brain, and the roles of I1-imidazoline receptors in the modulation of synaptic transmission were studied. Moxonidine, an I1-imidazoline receptor agonist, decreased the GABAA receptor-mediated IPSCs in a concentr...
متن کاملA new pyrroline compound selective for I1-imidazoline receptors improves metabolic syndrome in rats.
Symptoms of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), such as insulin resistance, obesity, and hypertension, have been associated with sympathetic hyperactivity. In addition, the adiponectin pathway has interesting therapeutic potentials in MetS. Our purpose was to investigate how targeting both the sympathetic nervous system and the adipose tissue (adiponectin secretion) with a drug selective for nonadre...
متن کاملLNP 906, the first high-affinity photoaffinity ligand selective for I1 imidazoline receptors.
1 The hypotensive effect of imidazoline-like drugs, such as clonidine, was attributed both to alpha2-adrenergic receptors and nonadrenergic imidazoline receptors, which are divided into I1, I2 and I3 subtypes. 2 We have recently synthesized a derivative of (2-(2-chloro-4-iodo-phenylamino)-5-methyl-pyrroline (LNP 911), the first high-affinity and selective ligand for I1 receptors (I1R), with a p...
متن کاملImidazoline receptors in relaxation of acetylcholine-constricted isolated rat jejunum.
Since 20 years the concept of specific imidazoline receptors has remained controversial. The problem with imidazoline receptors is mostly due to their functional similarity to alpha-adrenoceptors. In this work, a pharmacodynamic model of isolated rat jejunum longitudinal muscle strips constricted with acetylcholine (Ach) was applied to separate functional properties of the two types of receptor...
متن کاملTizanidine may discriminate between imidazoline-receptors and alpha 2-adrenoceptors.
The selectivity of tizanidine to the imidazoline-receptor and alpha 2-adrenoceptor recognized by 3H-p-aminoclonidine was examined in rat kidney membranes and was compared with those of other imidazoline compounds. Tizanidine bound to the imidazoline-receptors with approximately 20 times higher affinity than the alpha 2-adrenoceptors. The order of relative selectivity to imidazoline receptor was...
