Serotonin neurons are necessary for tonic sodium intake inhibition

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology
This study demonstrates a fundamental role for serotonergic neurons in limiting sodium intake. Mice with genetic deletion of serotonin-producing neurons consume more salt, indicating that serotonergic neurons act like a brake to restrain sodium appetite. These findings advance our understanding of how the brain controls salt-seeking behavior.

Reduction of Trial-to-Trial Perceptual Variability by Intracortical Tonic Inhibition

Neural Computation, 2016
Variability is a prominent characteristic of cognitive brain function. For instance, different trials of presentation of the same stimulus yield higher variability in its perception: subjects sometimes fail in perceiving the same stimulus. Perceptual variability could be attributable to ongoing-spontaneous fluctuation in neuronal activity prior to ...

Direct tonic inhibition of insulin secretion by central nervous system

American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1983
An experimental animal model was developed to investigate the influence of the central nervous system (CNS) on insulin secretion via direct innervation to the pancreas. This model eliminates any indirect CNS effect on the pancreas by hormonal factors.

[Tonic mechanisms of efferent inhibition in the frog labyrinth].

Bollettino della Societa italiana di biologia sperimentale, 1981
Activation of the efferent system of the isolated group labyrinth inhibits the afferent EPSP and spike discharge by releasing ACh, which opens the Cl- channel of the hair cells membrane. Experiments in which increasing amounts of Cl- in the bath are replaced by equivalent amounts of Br-, NO2-, NO3-, CH3 CO2-, SO4(2-), CH3CH2CO2-, CH3(CH2)2CO2-, CH3(CH2)
