Effect of isolation rearing on pre- and post-synaptic serotonergic function in the rat dorsal hippocampus.
Several behavioural, neurochemical, and structural alterations found in isolation-reared rats are similar to those in human schizophrenia. This study investigated changes in cholinergic and serotonergic function in the hippocampus following isolation rearing. Rats were reared in social isolation from weaning for 6 weeks before study and compared to group-reared rats. An in vitro electrophysiolo...
متن کاملKappa Opioid Modulation of Serotonergic Neurotransmission in the Hypothalamus, Hippocampus and Striatum in the Male Rat
Objectives: We have investigated the modulatory effects of κ-opioid receptors on the central serotonergic system in the hypothalamus, hippocampus and striatum. Materials and Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=32) used in the experiments were divided into four groups. Anaesthetized animals were mounted on a stereotaxic apparatus and intracerebroventricularly infused with U-50488H (κ-agonist, 5...
متن کاملCoexistence of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and somatostatin in nonpyramidal neurons of the rat dorsal hippocampus.
This study describes the colocalization of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) and the neuropeptide somatostatin (SOM) in nonpyramidal neurons of the rat dorsal hippocampus. SOM and mAChRs were identified by immunocytochemistry employing antibody S309 and M35, respectively. Half of the SOMergic cell population is found to be immunoreactive for muscarinic receptor protein as obtained by ...
متن کاملModification of adenosine modulation of acetylcholine release in the hippocampus of aged rats.
Adenosine is a neuromodulator acting through inhibitory A(1) receptors (A(1)Rs) and facilitatory A(2A)Rs. Since A(2A)R antagonists attenuate memory deficits in aged animals and memory deficits might involve a decreased cholinergic function, we investigated how aging affects the density and function of adenosine receptors in rat hippocampal cholinergic terminals. In young adult (2 months) rats, ...
متن کاملCholine enhances scopolamine-induced acetylcholine release in dorsal hippocampus of conscious, freely-moving rats.
We examined the effects of exogenous choline (30, 60, 120 mg/kg, i.p.) on basal and scopolamine-evoked acetylcholine (ACh) release in awake animals, using in vivo microdialysis. After collection of 3-4 baseline dialysate samples (15 min each), rats received either saline or choline chloride and 4 additional samples were collected. All animals then received scopolamine hydrochloride (0.5 mg/kg, ...
