Effects of VPAC2 receptor activation on membrane excitability and GABAergic transmission in subparaventricular zone neurons targeted by suprachiasmatic nucleus.
The hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) harbors the master circadian pacemaker. SCN neurons produce the amino acid gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and several peptide molecules for coordination and communication of their circadian rhythms. A subpopulation of SCN cells synthesizes vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) and provides a dense innervation of the subparaventricular zone (SPZ),...
متن کاملCircadian rhythm in inhibitory synaptic transmission in the mouse suprachiasmatic nucleus.
It is widely accepted that most suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) neurons express the neurotransmitter GABA and are likely to use this neurotransmitter to regulate excitability within the SCN. To evaluate the possibility that inhibitory synaptic transmission varies with a circadian rhythm within the mouse SCN, we used whole cell patch-clamp recording in an acute brain slice preparation to record GA...

متن کاملSodium Salicylate Suppresses GABAergic Inhibitory Activity in Neurons of Rodent Dorsal Raphe Nucleus
Sodium salicylate (NaSal), a tinnitus inducing agent, can activate serotonergic (5-HTergic) neurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) and can increase serotonin (5-HT) level in the inferior colliculus and the auditory cortex in rodents. To explore the underlying neural mechanisms, we first examined effects of NaSal on neuronal intrinsic properties and the inhibitory synaptic transmissions in DR...
متن کاملLeptin activates distinct projections from the dorsomedial and ventromedial hypothalamic nuclei.
Leptin has profound effects on feeding, metabolism, and neuroendocrine status. Evidence indicates that the hypothalamus coordinates these responses, though the specific brain pathways engaged by leptin remain obscure. The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVH) regulates pituitary gland function and feeding, and innervates autonomic preganglionic neurons, making it a candidate to regu...
