Characterization of M-current in ventral tegmental area dopamine neurons.
M-current (I(M)) is a voltage-gated potassium current (KCNQ type) that affects neuronal excitability and is modulated by some drugs of abuse. Ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine (DA) neurons are important for the reinforcing effects of drugs of abuse. Therefore we studied I(M) in acutely dissociated rat DA VTA neurons with nystatin-perforated patch recording. The standard deactivation protoco...
متن کاملHypocretin /orexin preferentially activates caudomedial ventral tegmental area dopamine neurons.
The hypocretin/orexin (HCRT) neuropeptide system modulates behavioral state and state-dependent processes via actions on multiple neuromodulatory transmitter systems. Recent studies indicate that HCRT selectively increases dopamine (DA) neurotransmission within the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the shell subregion of the nucleus accumbens (NAs), but not the core subregion of the nucleus accumbens...
متن کاملEthanol Potentiation of GABA Release onto Ventral Tegmental Area Dopamine Neurons
Activation of ventral tegmental area (VTA)-dopaminergic (DA) neurons by ethanol has been implicated in the rewarding and reinforcing actions of ethanol. GABAergic transmission is thought to play an important role in regulating the activity of DA neurons. We have reported previously that ethanol enhances GABA release onto VTA-DA neurons in a brain slice preparation. Because intraterminal Ca leve...
متن کاملNeurotensin inhibits both dopamine- and GABA-mediated inhibition of ventral tegmental area dopamine neurons.
Dopamine is an essential neurotransmitter that plays an important role in a number of different physiological processes and disorders. There is substantial evidence that the neuropeptide neurotensin interacts with the mesolimbic dopamine system and can regulate dopamine neuron activity. In these studies we have used whole cell patch-clamp electrophysiology in brain slices from mice to examine h...

26 Dopamine is an essential neurotransmitter that plays an important role in a number of 27 different physiological processes and disorders. There is substantial evidence that the 28 neuropeptide neurotensin interacts with the mesolimbic dopamine system and can regulate 29 dopamine neuron activity. In these studies we have used whole-cell patch clamp 30 electrophysiology in brain slices from mi...
