A persistent, severe reduction of synaptic transmission has been shown to enhance the responsiveness of postsynaptic tissue to the deficient neurotransmitter—a phenomenon called postjunctional supersensitivity. Regardless of whether supersensitivity is ind ...
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), a potent neurotrophic factor with restorative effects in a variety of rodent and primate models of Parkinson's disease (PD), could be of therapeutic value to PD. In this study, we show that intraventricul ...
The influence of chronic dietary lithium administration was evaluated on dopamine receptor supersensitivity in the rat corpus striatum. Supersensitivity was induced with either unilateral destruction of dopamine-containing fibers in the nigrostriatal pathw ...
To explain investing decisions, financial theorists invoke two opposing metrics: expected reward and risk. Recent advances in the spatial and temporal resolution of brain imaging techniques enable investigators to visualize changes in neural activation bef ...
Several studies in rats support the idea of multiple neural systems competing to select the best action for reaching a goal or food location. Locale navigation strategies, necessary for reaching invisible goals, seem to be mediated by the hippocampus and t ...
The distribution of vasoactive intestinal peptide binding sites in the rat brain was examined by in vitro autoradiography on slide-mounted sections. A fully characterized monoiodinated form of vasoactive intestinal peptide (M-[125I]VIP) previously shown to ...
The distribution of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) binding sites in the brain of several vertebrate species was examined by in vitro autoradiography on slide-mounted sections. This study included fish, frog, snake, pigeon, rat, mouse, guinea pig, cat ...
The distribution of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) binding sites in the pigeon brain was examined by in vitro autoradiography on slide-mounted sections. A fully characterized monoiodinated form of VIP, which maintains the biological activity of the na ...
The recent spate of neuroimaging studies on decision-making under uncertainty has provided converging evidence of a spatio-temporal dissociation of risk and expected reward encoding in the human brain. While this research has demonstrated widespread hemody ...
