The 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...
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 کاملIdentification of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta as a target of manganese accumulation.
Manganese serves as a cofactor to a variety of proteins necessary for proper bodily development and function. However, an overabundance of Mn in the brain can result in manganism, a neurological condition resembling Parkinson's disease (PD). Bulk sample measurement techniques have identified the globus pallidus and thalamus as targets of Mn accumulation in the brain, however smaller structures/...
متن کاملTemperature sensitivity of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta: involvement of TRP channels
Changes in temperature of up to several degrees have been reported in different brain regions during various behaviors or in response to environmental stimuli. We investigated temperature sensitivity of dopaminergic neurons of the rat substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc), an area important for motor and emotional control, using a combination of electrophysiological techniques, microfluorometry ...
متن کاملPhysiological properties of zebra finch ventral tegmental area and substantia nigra pars compacta neurons.
The neurotransmitter dopamine plays important roles in motor control, learning, and motivation in mammals and probably other animals as well. The strong dopaminergic projection to striatal regions and more moderate dopaminergic projections to other regions of the telencephalon predominantly arise from midbrain dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) and ventral tegmenta...
