Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Modulates Vomeronasal Neuron Response to Male Salamander Pheromone

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Neuroscience, 2012
Electrophysiological studies have shown that gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) modifies chemosensory neurons responses to odors. We have previously demonstrated that male Plethodon shermani pheromone stimulates vomeronasal neurons in the female ...

Anti-Atherosclerotic Action of Agmatine in ApoE-Knockout Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease in which dysfunction of mitochondria play an important role, and disorders of lipid management intensify this process. Agmatine, an endogenous polyamine formed by decarboxylation of arginine, exerts a protective

Agmatine and age-related cognitive decline

open access: yes, 2012
Declined learning and memory ability is common in aged individuals. Such age-related cognitive decline is associated with the dysfunction of the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus and its adjacent entorhinal, perirhinal and parahippocampal (postrhinal in ...

Immunoneutralization of Agmatine Sensitizes Mice to -Opioid Receptor Tolerance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Systemically or centrally administered agmatine (decarboxy-lated arginine) prevents, moderates, or reverses opioid-induced tolerance and self-administration, inflammatory and neuro-pathic pain, and sequelae associated with ischemia and spinal cord injury

Agmatine disrupts prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle reflex in rats

open access: yes, 2010
Agmatine is a guanidine-amine formed by the enzymatic decarboxylation of arginine. Agmatine has been proposed to be a neuromodulator and its downstream derivatives, the polyamines, have been suggested to be responsible for sensory gating deficits seen in

Inhibition of agmatine transport in liver mitochondria by new charge-deficient agmatine analogues.

open access: yes, 2007
The charge of the agmatine analogues AO-Agm [N-(3-aminooxypropyl)guanidine], GAPA [N-(3-aminopropoxy)guanidine] and NGPG [N-(3-guanidinopropoxy)guanidine] is deficient as compared with that of agmatine and they are thus able to inhibit agmatine transport
