epilepsy and dopaminergic system

چکیده
epilepsy is accompanied with a strong change in neuronal activity not only in excitatory (glutamatergic) and inhibitory (gabaergic) neurotransmission, but also in neuromodulatory agents. dopaminergic system, as an important neuromodulatory system of the brain, has significant effect on neuronal excitability. in addition, this system undergoes many changes in epileptic brain. understanding the effects of dopaminergic system in neuronal activities in epileptic brain and knowing the seizure-induced changes in dopaminergic system can shed light into finding the mechanisms involved in epileptogenesis and can help us in finding new treatments for epilepsy. in this review we briefly introduce dopaminergic system and its changes in brain areas which have role in epilepsy. then, we will focus on the evidences showing the relationship between epilepsy and dopaminergic system.

متن کاملThe dopaminergic system in hypertension.
Dopamine plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension by regulating epithelial sodium transport, vascular smooth muscle contractility and production of reactive oxygen species and by interacting with the renin-angiotensin and sympathetic nervous systems. Dopamine receptors are classified into D(1)-like (D(1) and D(5)) and D(2)-like (D(2), D(3) and D(4)) subtypes based on their st...
متن کاملSalience and dysregulation of the dopaminergic system.
Psychosis is a subjective and experiential phenomenon of the mind, influenced by cognitive and socio-cultural patterns of the individual. The neurobiological correlate of this phenomenon is the dysfunction of brain dopaminergic pathways. This article reviews the scientific evidence on the theoretical approaches of the dopaminergic hypothesis of psychosis and its relationship with the reward and...
متن کاملManganese interactions with dopaminergic system.
Manganese is a trace element with important involvement in the central nervous system functioning. The effects of manganese excess on central dopaminergic system in case of both basal nuclei and reward system are linked to important pathologic states such as Parkinsonism and cognitive impairment. Our data show that Mn2+ reduces the intensity of experimental morphine addiction in rats (manganese...
متن کاملrole of cholinergic system on the construction of memory and its interaction with dopaminergic system
the central cholinergic system has been associated with cognitive function and memory and acetylcholine plays an important role during the early stages of memory consolidation. in this study, after training mice were tested with one way active avoidance procedure and retention were tested at 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours of training and compared with non-shocked mice, in which it took 24 hours, a s...
