Influence of astemizole, an H1 receptor antagonist, on the locomotors activity of carbamazepine and valproate in mice

Current Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, 2012
In the present study, we examined the influence of the second generation H1 receptor antagonist, astemizole, co-administered with carbamazepine and valproate on the exploratory and spontaneous activities in mice.

Neuroprotective Effect of Lercanidipine- A Novel Calcium Channel Blocker in Albino Mice [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2015
Background: The available conventional antiepileptics do not afford cure or prophylactic treatment and henceforth there is always a quest to explore new targets for management of convulsions.

Central Effects of the Designer Drug Mephedrone in Mice—Basic Studies

Brain Sciences, 2022
Mephedrone belongs to the “party drugs” thanks to its psychostimulant effects, similar to the ones observed after amphetamines. Though mephedrone is used worldwide by humans and in laboratory animals, not all properties of this drug have been discovered ...

Spontaneous locomotor activity and L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia are not linked in 6-OHDA parkinsonian rats

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Bradykinesia (slowness of movement) and other characteristic motor manifestations of Parkinson’s disease (PD) are alleviated by treatment with L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA).

Contrasting effects of leptin on food anticipatory and total locomotor activity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Obese, leptin deficient obob mice have profoundly decreased activity and increased food seeking behavior. The decreased activity has been attributed to obesity. In mice, we tested the hypothesis that leptin increases total locomotor activity but inhibits

Divergent selection on home pen locomotor activity in a chicken model: Selection program, genetic parameters and direct response on activity and body weight.

PLoS ONE, 2017
General locomotor activity (GLA) in poultry has attracted attention, as it negatively influences production costs (energy expenditure and feed consumption) and welfare parameters (bone strength, litter quality, feather pecking and cannibalism).

Defining a role for the peduncolopontine tegmental nucleus in striatal outflow [PDF]

, 2012
The pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPTg) lies within the pontomesencephalon and contains cholinergic and non-cholinergic neurones. It has extensive afferent and efferent connections throughout the brain.

Elimination of Left-Right Reciprocal Coupling in the Adult Lamprey Spinal Cord Abolishes the Generation of Locomotor Activity

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2017
The contribution of left-right reciprocal coupling between spinal locomotor networks to the generation of locomotor activity was tested in adult lampreys.
