Calretinin in Dorsal Raphe Nucleus of the Chinchilla
نویسنده
چکیده
The localisation of carletinin in the midbrains of 10 sexually mature chinchilla males was examined by carrying out the peroxidase-antiperoxidase immunocytochemical reaction using specific monoclonal antibody against calretinin. Intensive immunostaining for the protein was observed in the majority of fusiform, pyramidal, and stellate neurons of dorsal raphe nucleus. A similar calretinin distribution in neurons of this region to those observed in primates and rodents was demonstrated

Parvalbumin and Calbindin D28k in the Dorsal Raphe Nucleus of the Chinchilla
The aim of this study was to track the immunoreactivity of parvalbumin and calbindin D28k buffering proteins in neurons of the dorsal raphe nucleus DRN of the adult male chinchilla. The reaction of peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) using specific antibodies against these proteins was performed. In most neurons, with the exception of small oval and medium-sized, stellate neurons, weak immunostaini...
متن کاملThe effect of desmopressin infusion into dorsal raphe nucleus on pain modulation and morphine analgesia in rats tail flick reflex
Recent neuroanatomical and behavioral evidence has indicated that vasopressin (VA) increases pain threshold. The dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) is an important nucleus in pain modulation. Anatomical studies have shown that DRN receives vasopressinergic fibers originating in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus. The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of intra-DRN injection of de...

Introduction: The role of serotonergic fibers in avoidance learning is controversial. Involvement of the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN), the main source of hippocampal projecting serotonergic fibers in acquisition, consolidation and retrieval of passive avoidance (PA) learning, was investigated by functional suppression of this area. Materials and Methods: DRN functional inactivation was done by li...
