A patient had recurrent pyrexia since 17 days of age followed by convulsions. At 20 days of age, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis showed mild pleocytosis, whereas bacterial culture of blood and CSF was negative and computed tomography was unremarka

We have developed dissociated primary cultures of the dorsal raphe nucleus from postnatal 9–12-day-old rats. The nucleus was dissected out from brain slices, dissociated, and cultured over a glial feeder layer. Serotonin immunocytochemistry reveale

Activation of substance P receptors, which are coupled to Galpha(q), inhibits the Kir3.1/3.2 channels, resulting in neuronal excitation. We have shown previously that this channel inactivation is not caused by reduction of the phosphatidylinositol 4,

Certain transmitters inhibit Kir3 (GIRK) channels, resulting in neuronal excitation. We analysed signalling mechanisms for substance P (SP)-induced Kir3 inhibition in relation to the role of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). SP rapidly

G protein-coupled inward rectifier potassium channels (GIRK, Kir3) play a crucial role in determining neuronal excitability. Currently, four mammalian GIRK members (GIRK1-4) have been genetically identified. We have been investigating physiological p

The tuberomammillary nucleus (TMN) in the hypothalamus is the sole source of histamine in the brain. This nucleus, by innervating various brain regions, plays an important role for vital functions such as arousal and appetite. We have developed disso

Orexins (hypocretins) are recently discovered excitatory transmitters implicated in arousal and sleep. Yet, their ionic and signal transduction mechanisms have not been fully clarified. Here we show that orexins suppress G-protein–coupled inward re

G protein-coupled inward rectifier K(+) channels (GIRK channels) are activated directly by the G protein betagamma subunit. The crystal structure of the G protein betagamma subunits reveals that the beta subunit consists of an N-terminal alpha helix

We investigated the efficiency of transfecting primary cultured rat postnatal brain neurons (substantia nigra pars compacta neurons and locus coeruleus neurons) with cDNA encoding GFP (jellyfish green fluorescent protein) using a calcium phosphate me

1. Types of G proteins (G protein alpha-subunit subtypes) which mediate the activation of inward rectifier K+ currents by somatostatin (somatotrophin release-inhibiting factor, SRIF) were determined in cultured locus coeruleus neurones from newborn r
