In recent years a vast array of experimental evidence has indicated the presence of functional receptors for neurotransmitters on nonneuronal cells, in particular astrocytes. The two neurotransmitters vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and noradrenaline ( ...
The stimulation by nicotine of intramural nerves and the role of ATP and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) as inhibitory transmitters were studied in the isolated taenia of the guinea-pig caecum. Nicotine (4-32 microM) caused transient, concentration-dep ...
Glutamate, released at a majority of excitatory synapses in the central nervous system, depolarizes neurons by acting at specific receptors. Its action is terminated by removal from the synaptic cleft mostly via Na(+)-dependent uptake systems located on bo ...
The hippocampus is among the regions in the brain richest in M1 cholinergic receptors. Topical application of acetylcholine (ACh) onto hippocampal slices produces a characteristic complex response consisting of a depolarization, an increase in input resist ...
The effects of noradrenaline (NA) on synaptic responses in layer II of the entorhinal cortex (EC) were studied in normal and spontaneously epileptic mutant mice tottering using intracellular recording in a slice preparation. Neither the membrane properties ...
The climbing behaviour in mice was used for studying possible interaction(s) of d-LSD with dopamine receptors. 2. Doses of d-LSD ranging from 0.25 to 2.5 mg/kg injected intra-peritoneally constantly inhibited the climbing behaviour. 3. In contrast, when ...
The entorhinal cortex is a gateway to the hippocampus; it receives inputs from several cortical associative areas as well as subcortical areas. Since there is evidence showing that noradrenaline reduces the epileptic activity generated in the entorhinal co ...
