Tegmental afferents of the amygdaloid body in the rat.

چکیده
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was injected to various parts of the amygdala in 50 rats. Retrograde axonal transport revealed that tegmental areas containing biogenic amines: dorsal and median raphe nuclei, locus coeruleus and ventral tegmental area, project diffusely to various amygdaloid areas. Moreover, HRP labeled cells were found in the parabrachial nucleus (following injection of the lateral amygdaloid nucleus) and in tegmental dorsolateral nucleus (after injection of the central nucleus of amygdala).

Reduction of cell size in amygdaloid complex of the Wistar rat embryos after oral morphine consumption
Introduction: In the present study, the effects of oral morphine consumption in pregnant female rats on the amygdaloid complex development in the embryos were investigated. Methods: Female Wistar rats weighing 250-300 g (n=15) were divided into control (n = 8) and experimental groups (n = 7). The experimental group received morphine (0.05 mg/ml) in their tap water. On the 19th day of pregnan...
متن کاملExtent of branching and conduction velocities of ascending and descending primary afferents in isolated spinal cord of the rat and hamster
Wall and Shortland (1991) have shown that afferent fibers entering the cord in thoracic and lumbar roots of adult rats have branches that may penetrate up to 11 segments caudally from the root entry zone. We have investigated the extent of branching and conduction velocities of ascending and descending branches of lumbar and thoracic primary afferents in isolated spinal cords of adult hamsters ...
متن کاملDifferent effects of tegmental GABAergic receptors on the expression of morphine-induced place preference in rat
In the present study, the effects of excitation and inhibition of GABAA and GABAB receptor subtypes on the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) were investigated. For this purpose, male Wistar rats (250-300 g) were used in the experiments. Five days after surgical cannulation in the ventral tegmental area (VTA), different doses of morphine were injected into the ani...
متن کاملThe effect of pinna reflex and dynamic stretch on spike discharge of single ?-axons and spindle afferents in caudal muscle spindles in rat
The ?-axons supplying muscle spindle (MS) induce a particular pattern of activity in spindle Ia and II afferents on contraction. From a dynamic viewpoint, the Ia shows increasing spike rates, but II-afferents do not show any activity. For evaluation of nerve fiber activity, spike amplitude (SA) is suggested to measure it as well as its benefit of diagnosing clinical symptoms. This paper aims to...

Objective(s): Cholinergic neurons are important neurons in the Pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPT). In this study, nicotinic receptor of the PPT in central cardiovascular regulation in the anesthetized rat was evaluated. Materials and Methods: Saline, acetylcholine (Ach; doses: 90 and 150 nmol), hexamethonium (Hexa; doses: 100 and 300 nmol) and higher doses of Hexa (300 nmol) + Ach (150 nm...
