Inhibition of Food Intake by PACAP in the Hypothalamic Ventromedial Nuclei is Mediated by NMDA Receptors [PDF]
Central injections of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) into the ventromedial nuclei (VMN) of the hypothalamus produce hypophagia that is dependent upon the PAC1 receptor; however, the signaling downstream of this receptor in the

The Effects of Topiramate Applied to the Nucleus Accumbens Region on Morphine Withdrawal Syndrome
Aim:Nucleus accumbens, one of the nuclei of the basal ganglia, and dopamine, the neurotransmitter play a critical role in opioid dependence and withdrawal. In opioid withdrawal, the importance of neurotransmitters such as glutamate and gamma aminobutyric

elPBN neurons regulate rVLM activity through elPBN-rVLM projections during activation of cardiac sympathetic afferent nerves. [PDF]
The external lateral parabrachial nucleus (elPBN) within the pons and rostral ventrolateral medulla (rVLM) contributes to central processing of excitatory cardiovascular reflexes during stimulation of cardiac sympathetic afferent nerves (CSAN).

The effect of Leptomastix dactylopii parasitism and venom injection on host Planococcus citri [PDF]
One of the major alterations observed in mealybug Planococcus citri parasitized by Leptomastix dactylopii is a strong reduction of laid eggs, which is evident soon after parasitization.

Effect of barodenervation on cardiovascular responses elicited from the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus of the rat. [PDF]
We have previously reported that chemical stimulation of the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARCN) in the rat elicited increases as well as decreases in blood pressure (BP) and sympathetic nerve activity (SNA).

Human neural stem cell transplantation in ALS: initial results from a phase I trial [PDF]
We report the initial results from a phase I clinical trial for ALS. We transplanted GMP-grade, fetal human neural stem cells from natural in utero death (hNSCs) into the anterior horns of the spinal cord to test for the safety of both cells and ...

GABA\u3csub\u3eA\u3c/sub\u3e and excitatory amino acid receptors in dorsomedial hypothalamus and heart rate in rats [PDF]
We have previously shown that microinjection of drugs that interfere with the function of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) into the hypothalamus produces cardiorespiratory and behavioral changes resembling those seen in ...
