The role of the cytoskeleton in the activity of GABA(A) receptors was investigated in cultured hippocampal neurons. Receptor currents were measured with the whole-cell patch-clamp technique during repetitive stimulation with 1 microm muscimol. After destruction of the microtubular system with nocodazol, muscimol-induced currents showed a rundown by 78%. A similar rundown was observed when actin...
The purpose of this study was to clarify further the site of action in the amygdala as well as functional characteristics of feeding in response to two GABA receptor agonists. Guide cannulae for microinjection were implanted stereotaxically in the rat just above the central nucleus of the amygdala (CNA). Microinjections of 0.05, 0.25, 0.5 or 1.0 nmol muscimol, a GABAA-selective receptor agonist...
The role of GABAA and GABAB receptors in modulation of excitatory synaptic transmission between motoneurons and terminals from dorsolateral funiculus (DLF) was studied in in vitro spinal cord slices of adult turtles. Muscimol--a GABAA receptor agonist--depressed the monosynaptic excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) induced by stimulation of the DLF and shortened its duration. The input resi...
In the present study, we have investigated whether the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) contributed to the reflex reduction in renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) normally elicited by volume expansion in the conscious rabbit. RSNA was monitored after volume expansion (Dextran 70, 2 ml/min for 30 min) in animals microinjected into, and outside, the PVN with muscimol (10 nmol), to a...
The underlying neuronal substrates and behavioral properties that might mediate extinction of the classically conditioned eye-blink response (CR) were examined. Four groups of rabbits were trained to perform the CR. Two of the groups then received either three or six sessions of tone-alone extinction training while the motor nuclei that mediate expression of the CR (facial nucleus and accessory...
Retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN) chemoreceptors are regulated by inputs from the carotid bodies (CB) and from pulmonary mechanoreceptors. Here we tested whether RTN neurons are influenced by 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor-expressing C-fiber vagal afferents. In urethan-anesthetized rats, selective activation of vagal C-fiber afferents by phenylbiguanide (PBG) eliminated the phrenic nerve discha...
The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is an important integrative center in the brain. In the present study, we investigated whether the PVN is a key region in the mesenteric vasoconstriction that normally accompanies an increase in core body temperature. Anesthetized rats were monitored for blood pressure, heart rate, mesenteric blood flow, and vascular conductance. In control rats, e...
Intraperitoneal injection of ethanol (1-2 g/kg) and chlordiazepoxide (2-16 mg/kg) suppressed susceptibility to audiogenically induced, clonic-tonic seizures and antagonized forelimb tremor in rats undergoing ethanol withdrawal, 30 min after treatment. However, a smaller dose of ethanol (0.5 g/kg) actually increased clonic seizure frequency, suggesting that ethanol exerts a biphasic proconvulsan...
There is evidence that GABA plays a major role in sleep regulation. GABA(A) receptor agonists and different compounds interacting with the GABA(A) receptor complex, such as barbiturates and benzodiazepines, can interfere with the sleep/wake cycle. On the other hand, there is very little information about the possible role of GABA(B) receptors in sleep modulation. The nucleus basalis of Meynert ...
