Pentylene tetrazol induced monoamine changes in rat brain.
The convulsant activity of pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) , is mainly due to' its ability to selectively antagonize GABA mediated post synaptic inhibition in the mammalian brain though a direct excitatory effect on neuronal membranes cannot be ruled out as a contributory factor (1). Furthermore there are reports which indicate that 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) playa modulatory ro...
متن کاملEffect of MCI-186 on ischemia-induced changes in monoamine metabolism in rat brain.
We examined the effects of MCI-186 (3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one), a novel free radical scavenger and an inhibitor of ischemia-induced brain edema, on monoamine metabolism in the brains of both normal and ischemic rats. In normal rats, 3 mg/kg i.v. MCI-186, a dose that prevents ischemic brain edema, had no significant effect on brain concentrations of dopamine, norepinephrine, 5-hydroxyt...
متن کاملInfluence of isolation stress on monoamine levels in discrete regions of the rat brain correlated with behaviour.
Various forms of stressful stimuli have been shown to affect brain catecholamine (CA) and indoleamine (IA) levels, although the literature contains some conflicting views. Changes in monoamine levels were also found to accompany the behavioural changes in animals. In the present study an attempt was made to correlate the behavioural changes with the monoamine level in discrete regions of rat br...
متن کاملPhosalone-Induced Changes in Regional Cholinesterase Activities in Rat Brain during Behavioral Tolerance
Organophosphate pesticides exert their toxic effects by cholinesterase inhibition and the consequent prolongation of the undesirable effects of accumulation of acetylcholine. The signs of toxicity include tremors, convulsions, lachrymation, defecation etc. However, sustained cholinesterase inhibition through sustained administration of organophosphates would lead to the gradual disappearance of...
متن کاملChronic scream sound exposure alters memory and monoamine levels in female rat brain.
Chronic scream sound alters the cognitive performance of male rats and their brain monoamine levels, these stress-induced alterations are sexually dimorphic. To determine the effects of sound stress on female rats, we examined their serum corticosterone levels and their adrenal, splenic, and thymic weights, their cognitive performance and the levels of monoamine neurotransmitters and their meta...
