Rearing rats in single cages from weaning until adulthood (social isolation) produces a number of behavioral and neurochemical alterations similar to those observed in psychoses such as schizophrenia. Also, a dysregulation of the endocannabinoid syst

Athletes attempt to improve performance with drugs that act on the β-adrenergic system directly or indirectly. Of three β-adrenoceptor (AR) subtypes, the β2-AR is the main target in sport; they have bronchodilator and anabolic actions and enhance

Accumulation of the amyloid protein (Abeta) in the brain is an important step in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. However, the mechanism by which Abeta exerts its neurotoxic effect is largely unknown. It has been suggested that the peptide ca

N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors regulating the release of [ 3 H]noradrenaline ([ 3 H]NA) and D-[ 3 H]aspartate (D-[ 3 H]Asp) were investigated in superfused slices of rat hippocampus in the presence and absence of nitrergic drugs to examine a p

The present study examined the effect of a range of doses of chronic nicotine (0.75, 1.5, 3.0 and 30.0 mg kg(-1) day(-1), s.c., 14 days) upon striatal dopaminergic nerve terminal survival following 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA; 10 microg intrastriatal u

Recent evidence suggests that alpha7 subunit-containing nicotinic receptors (nAChRs) within the ventral tegmental area (VTA) are involved in the processes underlying nicotine tolerance and withdrawal. The current study used in situ hybridization hist

Central administration of the N-type Ca2+ channel blocker omega-conotoxin GVIA in conscious rabbits has previously been shown to result in a slowly developing hypotensive and sympatholytic effect, with peak changes observed after 48 h. The aim of the

The displacement of [3H](−)-nicotine from its binding site in rat cerebral cortex by a number of antagonists was investigated. [3H](−)-Nicotine appeared to bind to a single site with a dissociation constant (KD) of 5.5 nM; pancuronium, gallamine
