Thermoregulatory responses to altering hypothalamic temperature in the harbor seal.
The rostral brainstem of the harbor seal Phoca vitulina was cooled and heated 33-41 degrees C while oxygen consumption and rectal, hypothalamic, flipper and dorsal skin temperatures were measured. These experiments were made on restrained seals at ambient temperatures -15 to 30 degrees C. Cooling the preoptic and hypothalamic (POH) tissue increased oxygen consumption in a way that could be appr...
متن کاملThermoregulatory responses to hypothalamic cooling in unanesthetized dogs.
HAMMEL, H. T., J. D. HARDY AND M. M. Fusco. Thermoregulatory responses to hypothalamic cooling in unanesthetised dogs. Am. J. Physiol. rg8(3) : 481-486. 1960.-A method is described for local heating or cooling of regions of the hypothalamus of the intact unanesthetized dog. Needle thermodes carrying warm or cold water are inserted through metal guides fixed permanently in the skull and placed s...
متن کاملSerotonergic and noradrenergic function in depression: clinical correlates
The present study was conducted in order to investigate the relationships between central noradrenergic (NA) and serotonergic (5-HT) function and clinical characteristics of a major depressive episode according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition. We measured growth hormone response (ΔGH) to clonidine (CLO) (an α2 NA agonist), as an index of central NA f...
متن کاملDopaminergic, serotonergic, and noradrenergic deficits in Parkinson disease
OBJECTIVE People with Parkinson disease (PD) frequently develop dementia, which is associated with neocortical deposition of alpha-synuclein (α-syn) in Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. In addition, neuronal loss and deposition of aggregated α-syn also occur in multiple subcortical nuclei that project to neocortical, limbic, and basal ganglia regions. Therefore, we quantified regional deficits in ...
متن کاملEffect of vagus nerve stimulation on serotonergic and noradrenergic transmission.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an antiepileptic treatment, which has recently shown promise as an antidepressant. Yet, its antidepressant mechanisms of action are unknown. Serotonergic [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin)] and noradrenergic [norepinephrine (NE)] systems are involved in the pathophysiology of depression and in the mechanisms of action of antidepressants. The present study an...
