Hypothyroidism in the Adult Rat Causes Incremental Changes in Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor, Neuronal and Astrocyte Apoptosis, Gliosis, and Deterioration of Postsynaptic Density
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2012)
Background: Adult hypothyroidism is a highly prevalent condition that impairs processes, such as learning and memory. Even though tetra-iodothyronine (T-4) treatment can overcome the hypothyroidism in the majority of cases, ...
Mechanisms of Activation and Subunit Release in Ca 2+ /Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II
(American Chemical Society, 2017-11)
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II is an enzyme involved in many different functions, including the so-called long-term potentiation, a mechanism that strengthens synapses in a persistent mode and is believed ...
The rotational model and microdialysis: Significance for dopamine signalling, clinical studies, and beyond
(ELSEVIER, 2010)
The detailed anatomy of the monoamine pathways of the rat by the students of Nils-A˚ ke Hillarp provided
the basis for a neurocircuitry targeting pharmacology. Further progress was achieved by the introduction
of ...
Prelimbic but not infralimbic cortex is involved in the pressor response to chemoreflex activation in awake rats
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011)
The ventral portion of the medial prefrontal cortex comprises the prelimbic cortex (PL) and the infralimbic cortex (IL). Several studies have indicated that both the PL and the IL play an important role in cardiovascular ...
Cardiovascular responses to noradrenaline microinjection in the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray of unanesthetized rats
(WILEY-LISS, 2008)
The periaqueductal gray area (PAG) is a mesencephalic area involved in cardiovascular modulation. Noradrenaline (NA), a neurotransmitter involved in central blood pressure control, is present in the rat PAG. We report here ...
Chelatable zinc modulates excitability and seizure duration in the amygdala rapid kindling model
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008)
Zinc is present in high concentration in many structures of the limbic circuitry, however the role of zinc as a neuromodulator in such synapses is stilt uncertain. In this work, we verified the effects of zinc chelation ...
Inhibitory network interactions shape the auditory processing of natural communication signals in the songbird auditory forebrain
(AMER PHYSIOLOGICAL SOC, 2008)
The role of GABA in the central processing of complex auditory signals is not fully understood. We have studied the involvement of GABA(A)-mediated inhibition in the processing of birdsong, a learned vocal communication ...
Regulation of Radial Glial Motility by Visual Experience
(SOC NEUROSCIENCE, 2009)
Radial glia in the developing optic tectum express the key guidance molecules responsible for topographic targeting of retinal axons. However, the extent to which the radial glia are themselves influenced by retinal inputs ...
