Cerebellar cortex contributions to the expression and timing of conditioned eyelid responses.
We used micro-infusions during eyelid conditioning in rabbits to investigate the relative contributions of cerebellar cortex and the underlying deep nuclei (DCN) to the expression of cerebellar learning. These tests were conducted using two forms of cerebellum-dependent eyelid conditioning for which the relative roles of cerebellar cortex and DCN are controversial: delay conditioning, which is ...
متن کاملLocally evoked potentials in slices of the rat nucleus accumbens: NMDA and non-NMDA receptor mediated components and modulation by GABA.
In a slice preparation of the rat nucleus accumbens (Acb), local electrical stimulation elicited a field potential composed of two negative peaks, followed by a positive wave. The early negative peak was identified as a non-synaptic compound action potential, the late negative peak as a monosynaptic population spike (PS) and the positive wave as a mixture of an excitatory and an inhibitory post...

Contradictory results have been reported regarding the effects of cerebellar cortex lesions on the expression of conditioned eyelid responses—either no effect, partial to complete abolition of responses, or disruption of response timing. This uncertainty is increased by debates regarding the region(s) of cerebellar cortex that are involved, by the likelihood that cortex lesions can inadvertentl...
متن کاملInteractive effect of aqueous-alcoholic extract of ginger as well as GABAA receptor agonist and antagonist on pain sensitivity in male rats
Introduction: Ginger has shown anti-nociceptive effects. Here we investigated the possible involvement of GABAA receptors in anti-nociceptive effect of ginger using muscimol (GABAA agonist) and picrotoxin (GABAA antagonist) in rats that received ginger. The pain sensitivity was evaluated by formalin test. Methods: Thirty-five male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 7 groups (n=5): s...
متن کاملTonically active GABAA receptors in hippocampal pyramidal neurons exhibit constitutive GABA-independent gating.
Phasic and tonic inhibitory currents of hippocampal pyramidal neurons exhibit distinct pharmacological properties. Picrotoxin and bicuculline methiodide inhibited both components, consistent with a role for GABAA receptors; however, gabazine, at a concentration that abolished miniature GABAergic inhibitory postsynaptic currents and responses to exogenous GABA, had no effect on tonic currents. B...
