Muscimol acts in dorsomedial but not paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus to suppress cardiovascular effects of stress.
Both the dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus (DMH) and the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVN) have been implicated in the neural control of the cardiovascular response to stress. We used the GABAA agonist muscimol to inhibit neuronal activation and attempted to identify hypothalamic nuclei required for the cardiovascular response to air stress. Chronically instrumented rats received bilate...
متن کاملInjection of muscimol in dorsomedial hypothalamus and stress-induced Fos expression in paraventricular nucleus.
Prior microinjection of the GABA(A)-receptor agonist muscimol into the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) in conscious rats attenuates the increases in heart rate, blood pressure, and circulating adrenocorticotrophic hormone seen in air stress. Here, we examined the effect of similar treatment on air stress- or hemorrhage-induced Fos expression in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN). Muscimol (80 pmo...
متن کاملPRL-releasing peptide inhibits food intake in male rats via the dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus and not the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus.
PRL-releasing peptide inhibits food intake after intracerebroventricular injection. PRL-releasing peptide immunoreactivity is found in several hypothalamic nuclei involved in feeding, with highest levels in the paraventricular and dorsomedial hypothalamic nuclei. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of PRL-releasing peptide on food intake after administration into these nuclei. Parav...
متن کاملLesion of central part of the dorsomedial nucleus alters vasopressin but not corticotropin releasing hormone mRNA levels in rat hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus.
Functional significance of neural projections from the hypothalamic dorsomedial nucleus (DMN) to the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) was investigated using surgical lesion of the central part of the DMN. Under basal conditions, DMN lesion resulted in a decrease in magnocellular vasopressin (AVP) mRNA levels in the PVN, rise in pituitary proopiomelancortin (POMC) mRNA concentrations and elevated p...
متن کاملDescending pathways mediating cardiovascular response from dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus.
Physiological and anatomic methods were used to determine whether neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), or hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) mediate the cardiovascular response evoked from the dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus (DMH), which is believed to play a key role in mediating responses to stress. In urethane-anesthetized rats, acti...
