CA1 pyramidal cells receive two major excitatory inputs: the perforant path (PP) terminates in the most distal dendrites, whereas the Schaffer collaterals (SC) terminate more proximally. We have examined the mechanism of the afterhyperpolarization (AHP) that follows single subthreshold excitatory

Using intracellular recordings in an isolated (in vitro) rat brain stem preparation, we examined the synaptic responses of developing relay neurons in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). In newborn rats, strong stimulation of the optic tract (OT) evoked excitatory
This study evaluated the capacity of mu-opioid and glutamate receptor agonists to differentially regulate the involvement of the GABAergic projection from the ventral pallidum to the mediodorsal thalamus in working memory and locomotor activity. Microinjection of either the ionotropic glutamate

γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) inhibits insulin secretion through GABA(B) receptors in pancreatic β-cells. We investigated whether GABA(B) receptors participated in the regulation of glucose homeostasis in vivo. BALB/c mice acutely pre-injected with the GABA(B) receptor agonist baclofen (7.5mg/kg, i.p.) presented glucose

Inhaled anesthetics, including the gaseous anesthetics nitrous oxide and xenon, are thought to act by interacting directly with ion-channel receptors. In contrast, little is known about the mechanism of action of inert gases that show only narcotic potency at high
