Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors in Hypothalamic Paraventricular and Supraoptic Nuclei Mediate Vasopressin and Oxytocin Release in Unanesthetized Rats
(Endocrine Soc, 2012-05-01)
We report changes in plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OT) concentrations evoked by the microinjection of L-glutamate (L-glu) into the hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus (SON) and paraventricular nucleus(PVN) ...

Effect of ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate agonists and D-aspartate on prolactin release from anterior pituitary cells
(Johann Ambrosius Barth Verlag Medizinverlage Heidelberg Gmbh, 2002-03)
Although the presence of ionotropic (iGluRs) and metabotropic (mGluRs) glutamate receptors has been demonstrated in the anterior pituitary, recent reports on the direct effect of glutamate on prolactin (PRL) secretion by ...
An intrinsic GABAergic system in human lymphocytes
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011-03)
γ-Amino butyric acid (GABA) is an ubiquitous neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and it is also present in non-neuronal cells. In this study we investigated the presence of neuronal components of the GABAergic ...
Tyrosine phosphorylation differentially fine-tunes ionotropic and metabotropic responses of human α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor
(Springer Nature Switzerland, 2021-05-24)
The α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is involved in neurological, neurodegenerative, and inflammatory disorders. It operates both as a ligand-gated cationic channel and as a metabotropic receptor in neuronal and ...
Control of breathing and blood pressure by parafacial neurons in conscious rats
(2013-01-01)
New Findings: • What is the central question of this study? The main purpose of the present manuscript was to investigate the cardiorespiratory responses to hypoxia or hypercapnia in conscious rats submitted to neuronal ...

An Improved Method for P2X7R Antagonist Screening
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
Papel dos receptores glutamatérgicos ionotrópicos do hipotálamo dorsomedial na regulação das respostas cardiovasculares e comportamental do quimiorreflexo
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2012-07-10)
Studies from our laboratory (Queiroz et al., 2011) showed that bilateral microinjection of lidocaine into the DMH reduces the pressor response to chemoreflex. These studies also showed that the bilateral blockade of glutamate ...
