O23: Modulation of Pacemaker Channels and Rhythmic Thalamic Activity by Demyelination and Inflammatory Cytokines
The thalamus is a central element for the generation of rhythmic oscillatory activity under physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Especially slow oscillations in the delta and theta frequency band which normally occur during slow-wave sleep are associated with a number of neuropsychiatric conditions if they occur during wakefulness and may be the basis for the generation of character...
متن کاملO 3:Therapeutic Potential of a Novel NMDA Receptor Subunit 2B Antagonist in a Mouse Model of Autoimmune Neuroinflammation
Glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity and neurodegeneration have been shown as pathophysiological hallmarks of multiple sclerosis (MS) and other autoimmune inflammatory CNS disorders. N‑Methyl‑D‑Aspartate (NMDA) receptors play a pivotal role in the mediation of neuronal glutamate excitotoxicity leading to cellular damage and apoptotic cell death. Current treatment approaches targeting glutamate exc...
متن کاملThe antinociceptive effect of 17β-estradiol in the nucleus paragigantocellularis lateralis of male rats may be mediated by the NMDA receptors
Introduction: The nucleus paragigantocellularis lateralis (LPGi) is involved in the descending pain modulation. The neurostreoid, 17β-estradiol found in the PGi nucleus and modulates nociception by binding to estrogen receptors and also by allosteric interaction with NMDA receptors. In this study, the role of NMDA receptors in the 17β-estradiol-induced pain modulation was investig...
متن کاملPreclinical evaluation of anticonvulsant activity of N-(p-aminobenzoyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline
Anticonvulsant activity of N-(p-aminobenzoyl)-1,2,3,4- tetrahydro-quinoline (NTQ), a newly synthesized ameltolide analog, was investigated with regards to efficacy and toxicity in mice. Additionally, its effect on NMDA receptors was also performed on NR1a/NR2B expressed in Xenopus oocytes. NTQ, given intraperitoneally, was able to protect the animals in both maximal electroshock seizure and pen...
متن کاملGlutamate Receptors in Nucleus Accumbens Can Modulate Canabinoid-Induced Antinociception in Rat’s Basolateral Amygdala
Introduction: It has been shown that administration of WIN55,212-2, a cannabinoid receptor agonist, into the basolateral amygdala (BLA), dose-dependently increases the thermal latency to withdrawal in the tail-.ick test and decreases pain related behaviors in both phases of the formalin test. Recent human and animal imaging data suggest that the nucleus accumbens (NAc) is an important neural su...
