Responses of rat substantia nigra dopamine-containing neurones to (-)-HA-966 in vitro.
1. Extracellular single unit recording techniques were used to compare the effects of (-)-3-amino-1-hydroxypyrrolidin-2-one ((-)-HA-966) and (+/-)-baclofen on the activity of dopamine-containing neurones in 300 microns slices of rat substantia nigra. Electrophysiological data were compared with the outcome of in vitro binding experiments designed to assess the affinity of (-)-HA-966 for gamma-a...
متن کاملMg2+ block properties of triheteromeric GluN1–GluN2B–GluN2D NMDA receptors on neonatal rat substantia nigra pars compacta dopaminergic neurones
Native NMDA receptors (NMDARs) are tetrameric channels formed by two GluN1 and two GluN2 subunits. So far, seven NMDARs subunits have been identified and they can form diheteromeric or triheteromeric NMDARs (more than one type of GluN2 subunit). Extracellular Mg(2+) is an important regulator of NMDARs, and particularly the voltage dependence of Mg(2+) block is crucial to the roles of NMDARs in ...
متن کاملDistinct mechanisms of presynaptic inhibition at GABAergic synapses of the rat substantia nigra pars compacta.
We investigated the mechanisms of presynaptic inhibition of GABAergic neurotransmission by group III metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) and GABA(B) receptors, in dopamine (DA) neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc). Both the group III mGluRs agonist L-(+)-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyric acid (AP4, 100 microM) and the GABA(B) receptor agonist baclofen (10 microM) reversibly depres...
متن کاملSubthalamic stimulation-induced synaptic responses in substantia nigra pars compacta dopaminergic neurons in vitro.
The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is one of the principal sources of excitatory glutamatergic input to dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra, yet stimulation of the STN produces both excitatory and inhibitory effects on nigral dopaminergic neurons recorded extracellularly in vivo. The present experiments were designed to determine the sources of the excitatory and inhibitory effects. Synapti...
متن کاملThe substantia nigra pars compacta and temporal processing.
The basal ganglia and cerebellum are considered to play a role in timing, although their differential roles in timing remain unclear. It has been proposed that the timing of short milliseconds-range intervals involves the cerebellum, whereas longer seconds-range intervals engage the basal ganglia (Ivry, 1996). We tested this hypothesis using positron emission tomography to measure regional cere...
