The cholinergic stimulation of the hippocampus induced the activation of the sympathetic nervous system.
OBJECTIVES We previously demonstrated that the direct microinjection of cholinesterase inhibitor (neostigmine) into the hippocampus in rats activated the hypothalamo-pituitary -adrenal axis and increased the level of norepinephrine in the plasma. In the current study we tried to measure the effects of neostigmine injection into the hippocampus using the non-invasive measure of heart rate variab...
متن کاملlocus coeruleus lesions and pcos: role of the central and peripheral sympathetic nervous system in the ovarian function of rat
abstract background: “polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) is a complex endocrine and metabolic disorder associated with ovulatory dysfunction”. “autonomic and central nervous systems play important roles in the regulation of ovarian physiology”. the noradrenergic nucleus locus coeruleus (lc) plays a central role in the regulation of the sympathetic nervous system and synaptically connected to the ...
متن کاملSympathetic nervous system neuroplasticity.
In human and experimental models of heart failure there is widespread change in the sympathetic nervous system. This involves preferential activation of the sympathetic nervous outflow to the heart, impairment of norepinephrine reuptake by sympathetic nerves, and reduction of the content of norepinephrine in the failing myocardium, attributable in part to sympathetic neuronal rarefaction.1–4 Mi...
متن کاملThe Role of Mammalian Target of Rapamycine Signaling Pathway in Central Nervous System Cancers: A Review
Mammalian mechanistic target of rapamycine (mTOR) is a conserved serine/threonine kinase in the cellular PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. This pathway is modified by cellular alterations such as level of energy, growth factors, stresses, as well as the increased environmental level of cancerous cytokines. In general, increase of this kinase protein function is seen in various types of cancers, ...
متن کاملCiliary neurotrophic factor induces cholinergic differentiation of rat sympathetic neurons in culture
Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) influences the levels of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in cultures of dissociated sympathetic neurons from newborn rats. In the presence of CNTF both the total and specific activity of ChAT was increased 7 d after culture by 15- and 18-fold, respectively, as compared to cultures kept in the absence of CNTF. Between 3 and 21 d i...
