Effects of Triazolam Microinjections into the Peri-fornicular Region on Sleep in Rats
نویسنده
چکیده
The hypothalamus plays a major integrative role in the homeostasis of a variety of physiological processes, including sleep and waking. The preoptic area of the anterior hypothalamus (POAH) and the tuberomammillary nuclei (TMN) of the posterior hypothalamus (PH) interact to form part of an intrahypothalamic sleep/wake control system (1-6). For example, Υ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-containing neurons from the POAH project to and provide inhibitory inputs to histaminergic neurons in the TMN (4,7), while the latter sends histaminergic afferents to Effects of Triazolam Microinjections into the Peri-fornicular Region on Sleep in Rats

Effects of Microinjections of Triazolam into Medial Preoptic Area on Sleep and Brain Temperature in Rats
A variety of hypnotic compounds including triazolam (1), pentobarbital (2) and ethanol (3) have been shown to induce sleep when microinjected into the medial preoptic area (MPA) of the anterior hypnothalamus. The mechanism by which they produce this effect, however, is not clear. Lesions of a basal forebrain area including the preoptic area decrease sleep (4), while electrical stimulation of th...
متن کاملSleep and Core Temperature Measures Following Microinjection of Muscimol into the Medial Preoptic Area in Rats
Anumber of compounds, including triazolam (1,2), pentobarbital (3), ethanol (4), and adenosine (5) have been shown to induce sleep when injected into the medial preoptic area of rats. The mechanism by which this occurs remains to be clearly elucidated, though the high affinity for triazolam for the benzodiazepine recognition site on the GABA-A-benzodiazepine receptor complex, and the interactio...
متن کاملAntinociceptive Effect of Morphine Microinjections into the Dorsal Hippocampus in the Formalin-Induced Orofacial Pain in Rats
In the present study, the effects of intra-hippocampal microinjections of morphine (an opioid agonist) and naloxone (an opioid antagonist) were investigated in the formalin-induced orofacial pain in rats. Orofacial pain was induced by subcutaneous injection of formalin (1 %, 50 μl) in the upper lip region and the time spent of face rubbing was measured in 3-min blocks for 45 min. Formalin induc...
متن کاملEffects of Selective iNOS Inhibitor on Spatial Memory in Recovered and Non-recovered Ketamine Induced-anesthesia in Wistar Rats
Nitric oxide (NO) is thought to be involved in spatial learning and memory in several brain areas such as hippocampus. This study examined the effects of post-training intrahippocampal microinjections of 1400W as a selective inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor on spatial memory, in both anesthetized and non-anesthetized situations in rats. In the present work, 4-day training trials...
