Deficits in manipulative behaviors induced by local injections of muscimol in the first somatosensory cortex of the conscious monkey.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Injection of muscimol (GABA agonist) in the finger region of area 2 of the alert monkey led to the striking yet reversible loss of finger coordination, thus disabling the monkey from picking up a small piece of food from a small hole or a funnel. Symptoms varied depending on sites of injection within the finger region. Neither weakness of hand or finger movements nor deficit in hand reach was observed.

Objective(s): The present study investigated the effects of microinjection of histamine and histamine H1, H2, and H3 receptor antagonists, chlorpheniramine, ranitidine and thioperamide, respectively into the primary somatosensory cortex (PSC) on inflammatory pain. Material and Methods: Two stainless steel guide canulas were bilaterally implanted into the PSC of anaesthetized rats. Inf...
متن کاملCharacterization of Nociceptive Behaviors Induced by Formalin in the Glabrous and Hairy Skin of Rats
Introduction: Glabrous skin and hairy skin are innervated by different types of noxious fibers. However, the different nociceptive behaviors induced by formalin, a commonly used model of acute inflammatory pain, have not yet been systematically examined in the glabrous and hairy skin. Methods: In this study, we compared nociceptive behaviors induced by formalin injections (2%, 4%, and 8%) into...
متن کاملPossible mechanism of tolerance to ketamine-induced blockade of cortical spreading depression
Ketamine (KET) induced blockade of cortical spreading depression (CSD) declines with repeated KET applications in a way suggesting the development of tolerance. Possible mechanism of this process was studied in 31 rats anestheized with pentobarbital. CSD was elicited by injection of 1µl of 5% KCl into cortex at 15 min intervals and monitored by recording the accompanying slow potential waves....
متن کاملGABAA receptors in the dorsal hippocampus are involved in sate-dependent learning induced by lithium in mice
These experiments examined the effects of pre-test intra dorsal hippocampus (intra-CA1) administration of GABAA receptor agonist and antagonist, muscimol and bicuculline respectively, on state-dependent learning induced by lithium. Male NMRI mice were trained in a one-trial step-down inhibitory avoidance task, and immediately after training they received IP injections of either saline (10 mL/kg...
