Alcohol preference in mice lacking the Avpr1a vasopressin receptor.
[Arg(8)]-vasopressin (Avp), a nonapeptide hormone, is known to regulate blood pressure, water balance, and a variety of behaviors such as anxiety, aggression, and bonding. Although some evidence that Avp modifies ethanol consumption and some of the effects of ethanol on behavior have been reported, the role of Avp in alcohol consumption and preference is poorly understood. The Avp1a receptor (A...
متن کاملThe effects of topiramate on the acquisition and expression of morphine-induced place conditioning and behavioral sensitization in mice
Introduction: Topiramate is a newly anti-convulsant drug, which acts as NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist as well as the GABAB receptor agonist. It is used for physical dependence to opioids as well as cocaine, nicotine, alcohol and ecstasy dependence. In the present study attempts were made to further identification of the effects of topiramate on the acquisition and expression of morphine...
متن کاملHyponatremia treatment guidelines 2007: expert panel recommendations.
Although hyponatremia is a common, usually mild, and relatively asymptomatic disorder of electrolytes, acute severe hyponatremia can cause substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly in patients with concomitant disease. In addition, overly rapid correction of chronic hyponatremia can cause severe neurologic deficits and death, and optimal treatment strategies for such cases are not estab...
متن کاملEffect of linalool on the acquisition and reinstatement of morphine-induced conditioned place preference in mice
Objective: The effect of linalool, a terpene alcohol found in many plants, which inhibits NMDA receptors, on the acquisition and reinstatement of morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) was evaluated in mice.Material and Methods: The effects of different doses of linalool (12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg, i.p.), memantine (20 mg/kg, an NMDA receptor antagonist) and saline, in CPP induced by 4...
متن کاملVasopressin stimulates insulin release from islet cells through V1b receptors: a combined pharmacological/knockout approach.
Vasopressin receptor subtype(s) responsible for stimulation of insulin release from pancreatic beta cells were investigated by using subtype-selective antagonists and mice that were genetically lacking either V1a or V1b receptors. Arginine vasopressin (AVP) increased insulin release from isolated mouse islet cells in a concentration-dependent manner, with a submaximal response at 100 nM. Revers...
