Functional and neurochemical cortical cholinergic impairment following neurotoxic lesions of the nucleus basalis magnocellularis in the rat.
The effect of kainic and quinolinic acid on cortical cholinergic function was examined following injections of these agents into the nucleus basalis magnocellularis (nbm) or into the frontoparietal cortex. The release of cortical 3H-acetylcholine (3H-ACh), high affinity choline uptake (HACU) and acetylcholinesterase was measured 7 days following injections of saline (control), kainic acid (4.7 ...

Objective(s): Melatonin, an important hormone secreted by the epiphysis, is a powerful anti-oxidant with a high potential to neutralize medical toxins. The goal of this study was to demonstrate the beneficial effect of melatonin on epididymal sperm and reproductive parameters in mice treated with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA).Materials and Methods:</stro...
متن کاملCortical muscarinic receptor function following quinolinic acid-induced lesion of the nucleus basalis magnocellularis.
Phosphatidylinositol metabolism, linked to muscarinic receptor activation, was studied in rat cortical slices after a unilateral quinolinic acid lesion to the nucleus basalis magnocellularis (nbM) or the cortex itself. The incorporation of [3H]inositol into inositol phosphate was measured in the presence of LiCl, followed by anion exchange chromatography to separate inositol phosphates. Carbach...
متن کاملBrain glucose hypometabolism after perirhinal lesions in baboons: implications for Alzheimer disease and aging.
The authors previously reported that excitotoxic lesions of both the perirhinal and entorhinal cortices in baboons induce remote neocortical and hippocampal hypometabolism reminiscent of that observed in Alzheimer disease (AD), suggesting that disconnection may play a role in AD. Because the cerebral metabolic rate of glucose (CMR ) was preferentially correlated with perirhinal damage, the area...
متن کاملCortical map reorganization enabled by nucleus basalis activity.
Little is known about the mechanisms that allow the cortex to selectively improve the neural representations of behaviorally important stimuli while ignoring irrelevant stimuli. Diffuse neuromodulatory systems may facilitate cortical plasticity by acting as teachers to mark important stimuli. This study demonstrates that episodic electrical stimulation of the nucleus basalis, paired with an aud...
