Role of NMDA receptors and voltage-dependent calcium channels in augmenting long-term potentiation of the CA1 area in morphine-dependent rats
The involvement of NMDA receptors and voltage-dependent calcium channels in augmentation of long-term potentiation (LTP) was investigated at the Schaffer collateral CA1 pyramidal cell synapses in hippocampal slices of morphine dependent rats, using primed-burst tetanic simulation. The amplitude of the population spike and its delay were measured as indices of increase in postsynaptic excitabi...
متن کاملInvolvement of voltage-dependent calcium channels in synaptic plasticity of the rat visual cortex
In this study, involvement ofvoltage-dependent calcium channels in LTP of responses of rat visual cortex slices was analyzed. Field potentials including EPSP1 and EPSP2 from layers II/III were recorded through stimulation of layer IV. Whereas nifedipine, a L-type calcium channel blocker (L-VDCC), did not considerably affect the LTP of responses, but Ni2+, a relatively selective blocker of T-typ...

متن کاملThe Involvement of L-Type Voltage-Operated Calcium Channels in the Vascular Effect of Quercetin in Male Rats
In this study, the possible involvement of L-type voltage-operated calcium channels in the vasorelaxant effect of the flavonoid quercetin was investigated, using the isolated aortic rings from normal male rats. Addition of quercetin (0.1 µM-1 mM) caused a significant dose-dependent relaxation of noradrenaline (NA)- and KCl-preconstricted rings and nifedipine attenuated this response, especially...
