Numerous GABAergic afferents to locus ceruleus in the pericerulear dendritic zone: possible interneuronal pool.
Most nuclei in the CNS are composed of principal neurons that project to other areas and interneurons that serve to integrate information among afferents. The noradrenergic brain nucleus locus ceruleus (LC) has appeared to be an exception to this general rule, because the LC is composed almost entirely of noradrenergic principal neurons. Here, we report that numerous small neurons in the peri-L...
متن کاملResponsiveness of locus ceruleus neurons in hypertensive rats to vasopressin.
We studied the actions of vasopressin administered microiontophoretically onto neurons of the locus ceruleus in rats with deoxycorticosterone-acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertension and in control (normotensive) rats. Rats were studied at 3 days (prehypertensive stage) and 4 to 6 weeks after DOCA-salt treatment (chronic hypertensive stage). Experiments were performed in anesthetized rats using convent...
متن کاملGene Wakeup Calls from the Locus Ceruleus
Dopamine and some other neuromodulators are thought to act by volumetric signaling (i.e., gradient diffusion of neurotransmitter to receptors beyond a synaptic release site). In this issue, Paspalas and Goldman-Rakic outline such a signaling pathway involving the D5 dopamine receptor. They used immunogold labeling and electron microscopy in pyramidal neurons of monkey prefrontal cortex. Specifi...
متن کاملDevelopmental reorganization of the output of a GABAergic interneuronal circuit Running Head: Inhibitory interneuronal circuit reorganization
Locally projecting inhibitory interneurons play a crucial role in the patterning and timing of network activity. However, because of their relative inaccessibility, little is known about their development or incorporation into circuits. In this report we demonstrate that the GABAergic Rinterneuron circuit undergoes a reorganization in the chick embryo spinal cord between embryonic day 8 and 15 ...
