A quantitative autoradiographic technique for measuring the binding of [3H]muscimol to central nervous system GABA receptors is described using tritium-sensitive film. [3H]Muscimol binding was studied in primary and secondary striatal projection areas of rat brain following kainic acid lesions of the striatum. Seven days after the lesion, binding affinities in the striatum and its projection ar...
Arousal is an important defense against hypoxia during sleep. Rat pups exhibit progressive arousal impairment (habituation) with multiple hypoxia exposures. The mechanisms are unknown. The medullary raphe (MR) is involved in autonomic functions including sleep and receives abundant GABAergic inputs. We hypothesized that inhibiting MR neurons with muscimol, a GABAA receptor agonist, or preventin...
The Kölliker-Fuse region (KF) and the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) have been implicated in the maintenance of cardiorespiratory control. Here, we evaluated the involvement of the KF region and the LPBN in cardiorespiratory responses elicited by chemoreceptor activation in unanesthetized rats. Male Wistar rats (280-330 g; n = 5-9/group) with bilateral stainless-steel guide cannulas implan...
Rates of cerebral glucose utilization were measured by means of the autoradiographic 2-deoxy-D-[1-14C] glucose technique in 70 anatomically discrete central nervous structures in conscious awake rats following unilateral intranigral application of the GABAergic agonist muscimol. Intranigral injection of 1.3 microliters 1 microM muscimol (0.15 ng) induced increases in glucose consumption locally...
The role of cortical activity in experience-dependent cortical plasticity was studied in the rat barrel cortex. Plasticity was induced by depriving every other whisker in a chessboard pattern, which is known to cause depression of responses to deprived whisker stimulation and potentiation of responses to spared whisker stimulation. Postsynaptic activity was blocked by muscimol released from elv...
Rates of cerebral glucose utilization were measured by means of the autoradiographic P-deoxy-D-[ 1 -“Cl glucose technique in 70 anatomically discrete central nervous structures in conscious awake rats following unilateral intranigral application of the GABAergic agonist muscimol. lntranigral injection of 1.3 PI 1 PM muscimol(O.15 ng) induced increases in glucose consumption locally in the subst...
The 2-deoxy-D[1-14C]glucose method of Sokoloff was used to measure local cerebral glucose utilization (LCGU) in rats after injections of the GABA receptor agonist, muscimol (1.6 mg/kg and 4.0 mg/kg, i.v.); the muscarinic receptor antagonist, scopolamine (0.4 mg/kg and 2.0 mg/kg, i.v.); or combinations of both drugs. The aim was to identify brain regions where functional effects of GABAergic-cho...
To evaluate smooth-pursuit (SP) function in the primate frontal eye field (FEF), microinjections of muscimol, a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) agonist, were used to reversibly deactivate physiologically characterized sites in FEF. SP was severely impaired by deactivation at sites in the FEF's smooth eye movement region (FEFsem) located in the fundus and posterior bank of the macaque monkey's ar...
The nucleus accumbens shell (AcbSh) and lateral hypothalamus (LH) are linked in the control of food intake. Pharmacological inhibition of the LH may block AcbSh-elicited feeding, but the behavioral phenotype associated with this feeding suppression is unknown. To examine this phenotype, adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted with three cannulas - one unilaterally in the AcbSh and two bil...
Our previous observations led to the hypothesis that cells in the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) tonically inhibit saccade-related cells in the intermediate layers of the superior colliculus (SC). Before saccades to visual or remembered targets, cells in SNr briefly reduce that inhibition, allowing a burst of spikes of SC cells that, in turn, leads to the initiation of a saccadic eye mo...
