Psychopharmacology of wakefulness: pathways and neurotransmitters.
aMonoaminergic projections from brainstem to cortex via the ascending reticular activating system are illustrated here. Perhaps one form of arousal is a stimulated type of external vigilance, with tense hyperarousal, putting the individual on the lookout for threats from the environment. This type of arousal may be mediated by the monoamines dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and acetylcholin...
متن کاملNeurotransmitters
The nervous system processes sensory information and controls behavior by performing an enormous number of computations. These computations occur both within cells and between cells, but it is intercellular information processing, involving complex neural networks, that provides the nervous system with its remarkable functional capacity. The principal cells involved in information processing ar...
متن کاملCold pressor test in the rat: medullary and spinal pathways and neurotransmitters.
This study was designed to delineate the medullary and spinal pathways mediating the cardiovascular responses to cold pressor test (CPT) and to identify neurotransmitters in these pathways. Experiments were done in barodenervated, urethane-anesthetized, male Wistar rats. The CPT was performed by immersing the limbs and ventral half of the body of the rat in ice-cold water (0.5 degrees C) for 2 ...
متن کاملCommon Neurotransmitters: Criteria for Neurotransmitters, Key Locations, Classifications and Functions
The criteria, key locations, classifications and functions of common neuro transmitters is reviewed and discussed. Neurotransmitters are the brain chemicals that communicate information throughout our brain and body. They relay signals between neurons. To be neurotransmitter the molecule must be present in the brain and distributed unevenly and enzymes that help to create the neurotransmitter m...
متن کاملThalamic ventrobasal stimulation for pain relief. Probable mechanisms, pathways and neurotransmitters.
Thalamic ventrobasal (VB) stimulation, first performed by Mazars, in 1961, is a valuable means for treating central and deafferentation pain. The way it acts to achieve pain relief, however, is still a matter of controversy. In this paper, the author examines previously proposed hypotheses and suggests that VB stimulation induces pain relief by activation of a multisynaptic inhibitory pathway t...
