Sex Differences in GABAA Signaling in the Periaqueductal Gray Induced by Persistent Inflammation.
UNLABELLED The ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG) is a key structure in the descending pain modulatory circuit. Activation of the circuit occurs via disinhibition of GABAergic inputs onto vlPAG output neurons. In these studies, we tested the hypothesis that GABAergic inhibition is increased during persistent inflammation, dampening activation of the descending circuit from the vlPAG. Our...
متن کاملPERIAQUEDUCTAL GRAY 1 Running head: PERIAQUEDUCTAL GRAY Common representation of pain and negative emotion in the midbrain periaqueductal gray
Human neuroimaging offers a powerful way to connect animal and human research on emotion, with profound implications for psychological science. However, the gulf between animal and human studies remains a formidable obstacle: Human studies typically focus on the cortex and a few subcortical regions such as the amygdala, whereas deeper structures such as the brainstem periaqueductal gray (PAG) p...
متن کاملNeuronal activity within the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray during simulated hemorrhage in conscious rabbits.
The ventrolateral (vl) periaqueductal gray (PAG) has been proposed as a site responsible for the active process triggering the onset of hypotension (i.e., phase 2) during blood loss in conscious animals (Cavun S and Millington WR. Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 281: R747-R752, 2001). We recorded the extracellular activity of PAG neurons in conscious rabbits to test the hypothesis that v...
متن کاملVolume-evoked micturition reflex is mediated by the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray in anesthetized rats.
The central pathway of the micturition reflex in the rat was investigated functionally by acute blockade of synaptic neurotransmission using microinjection of cobalt chloride into the periaqueductal gray or pontine tegmental region. In 27 urethan-anesthetized (1.2 g/kg ip) rats, the bladder pressure response to continuous infusion of the bladder with saline (0.1-0.25 ml/min) was assessed. Elect...
متن کاملRegulation of Extinction-Related Plasticity by Opioid Receptors in the Ventrolateral Periaqueductal Gray Matter
Recent work has led to a better understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying the extinction of Pavlovian fear conditioning. Long-term synaptic changes in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) are critical for extinction learning, but very little is currently known about how the mPFC and other brain areas interact during extinction. The current study examined the effect of drugs that impair t...
