Morphine responsiveness and seizure proneness.
Previous research demonstrated that following amygdala kindling, animals showed a heightened sensitivity to morphine's convulsive effects and an exaggerated Straub tail response. These effects were evident to 3 months after their last convulsion and could be blocked by naloxone pretreatment. The present paper extends these findings by demonstrating that animals given metrazol or electroshock (E...
متن کاملDevelopment of neurotransmitter uptake in regions of the chick brain.
The uptake of postulated neurotransmitters of their precursors into regions of the developing chick brain and retina has been examined. The transport of low concentrations (around 10(-8) M) of GABA, glutamic acid, choline, dopamine and serotonin into homogenates was sodium and energy dependent and inhibited by a variety of pharmacological agents that are thought to act presynaptically. After mo...
متن کاملNeurotransmitter abnormalities as determinants of seizure susceptibility and intensity in the genetic models of epilepsy.
Normal subjects are not considered to be epileptic merely because they exhibit a seizure in response to an appropriate stimulus of sufficient intensity. In epileptics, a relatively weak stimulus will elicit an explosive neuronal response, whereas in a normal individual it will cause only trivial responses. Fortunately, only a few subjects in any given animal or human population are epileptic; h...
متن کاملThe Effects of Kainic Acid-Induced Seizure on Gene Expression of Brain Neurotransmitter Receptors in Mice Using RT2 PCR Array
Introduction: Kainic acid (KA) induces neuropathological changes in specific regions of the mouse hippocampus comparable to changes seen in patients with chronic temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). According to different studies, the expression of a number of genes are altered in the adult rat hippocampus after status epilepticus (SE) induced by KA. This study aimed to quantitatively evaluate changes...
متن کاملGuilt Proneness and Moral Character
Guilt proneness is a personality trait indicative of a predisposition to experience negative feelings about personal wrongdoing, even when the wrongdoing is private. It is characterized by the anticipation of feeling bad about committing transgressions rather than by guilty feelings in a particular moment or generalized guilty feelings that occur without an eliciting event. Our research has rev...
