Hypothalamic modulation of the midbrain dopaminergic system
Ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopaminergic (DAergic) and GABAergic neurons are critically involved in mechanisms of reward, reinforcement and emotional arousal. The hypothalamus regulates the homeostatic drive to eat and sends a massive output to the VTA, including projections from neurons containing orexins, the novel neuropeptides, which potently modulate arousal and feeding. Single-unit extra...
متن کاملFunctional imaging of the human dopaminergic midbrain.
Invasive recording of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area (SN/VTA) of behaving animals suggests a role for these neurons in reward learning and novelty processing. In humans, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is currently the only non-invasive event-related method to measure SN/VTA activity, but it is debated to what extent fMRI enables inference about...
متن کاملCholinergic modulation of midbrain dopaminergic systems.
Dopamine neurons in the midbrain respond to behavioral events and environmental stimuli. Their different patterns of activation in turn modulate the activity of forebrain regions and modulate the expression of selective behavioral responses. However, their activity is closely dependent on the cholinergic systems in the brainstem. Ascending cholinergic projections from the pedunculopontine and l...
متن کاملEpilepsy and dopaminergic system
Epilepsy is accompanied with a strong change in neuronal activity not only in excitatory (glutamatergic) and inhibitory (GABAergic) neurotransmission, but also in neuromodulatory agents. Dopaminergic system, as an important neuromodulatory system of the brain, has significant effect on neuronal excitability. In addition, this system undergoes many changes in epileptic brain. Understanding the e...
متن کاملAntioxidant Role of Oleuropein on Midbrain and Dopaminergic Neurons of Substantia Nigra in Aged Rats
Background: Oleuropein is a phenolic compound which is present in the olive leaf extract. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the neuroprotective effect of oleuropein as an antioxidant agent on the substantia nigra in aged rats. Methods: Twenty 18-month-old Wistar rats (450-550 g) were randomly divided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group received a daily...
