[ 1 ] - Effect of Nitric Oxide on Basolateral Amygdala on Persistence of Anxiety and Depression in Stressed Male Rats
Introduction: The current study aimed at investigating the role of Nitric Oxide (NO) in the maintenance of anxiety and depression induced by stress in male Wistar rats using intra-Basolateral Amygdala (BLA) injection of NO precursor, L-arginine, Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) inhibitor, and L-NAME. Methods: Two 23-gauge stainless steel cannulas were placed in the BLA, stereotaxically. Seven days...
[ 2 ] - NMDA glutamate receptor inhibition in the dorsal hippocampus reduced the maintenance of electric foot shock stress -induced anxiety and depression like behaviors in mice
Introduction: In the present study, the effect of inhibition of glutamate NMDA receptors located in the dorsal hippocampus on the maintenance of anxiety and depression like behaviors induced by electric foot shock stress was investigated. Materials and Methods: NMARI male mice were divided into two categories. The first category received electro foot shock for 30 minutes after injection of mema...
