Area-specific analysis of the distribution of hypothalamic neurons projecting to the rat ventral tegmental area, with special reference to the GABAergic and glutamatergic efferents.

Frontiers in neuroanatomy

Kalló I, Molnár CS, Szöke S, Fekete C, Hrabovszky E, Liposits Z.
PMID: 26388742
Front Neuroanat. 2015 Sep 04;9:112. doi: 10.3389/fnana.2015.00112. eCollection 2015.

The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is a main regulator of reward and integrates a wide scale of hormonal and neuronal information. Feeding-, energy expenditure-, stress, adaptation- and reproduction-related hypothalamic signals are processed in the VTA and influence the reward...

Clinical psychopharmacology and neuroscience : the official scientific journal of the Korean College of Neuropsychopharmacology

Agrawal R, Kalmady SV, Venkatasubramanian G.
PMID: 28449558
Clin Psychopharmacol Neurosci. 2017 May 31;15(2):115-125. doi: 10.9758/cpn.2017.15.2.115.

OBJECTIVE: Deficient brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is one of the important mechanisms underlying the neuroplasticity abnormalities in schizophrenia. Aberration in BDNF signaling pathways directly or circuitously influences neurotransmitters like glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). For the first time, this...

Intestinal pseudo-obstruction following oral baclofen: An unusual complication.

Journal of pharmacology & pharmacotherapeutics

Karthikeyan VS, Senthilkumaran K, Easwaran B, Rajbhaskar R.
PMID: 26312004
J Pharmacol Pharmacother. 2015 Jul-Sep;6(3):169-71. doi: 10.4103/0976-500X.162010.

Baclofen is a gamma- aminobutyric acid B (GABA B) agonist used for the management of spasticity associated with spinal cord injury. Oral baclofen might cause constipation, but intestinal pseudo-obstruction is very rare. We report a 50-year-old male with spasticity...

Why It Is Not Always Anxiety: A Tough Diagnosis of Stiff Person Syndrome.

Case reports in neurological medicine

Cervantes CE, Lee Lau H, Binazir TA, O'Brien KO, Cross JS.

Case Rep Neurol Med. 2017;2017:7431092. doi: 10.1155/2017/7431092. Epub 2017 Aug 14.

Anxiety disorder is a commonly used diagnosis that may mask underlying conditions. Stiff person syndrome (SPS) is a rare neuroimmunological disorder characterized by progressive rigidity and painful muscle spasms affecting axial and lower extremity musculature. These episodes can be...

Neuropathological Mechanisms of Seizures in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Frye RE, Casanova MF, Fatemi SH, Folsom TD, Reutiman TJ, Brown GL, Edelson SM, Slattery JC, Adams JB.
PMID: 27242398
Front Neurosci. 2016 May 10;10:192. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2016.00192. eCollection 2016.

This manuscript reviews biological abnormalities shared by autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and epilepsy. Two neuropathological findings are shared by ASD and epilepsy: abnormalities in minicolumn architecture and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmission. The peripheral neuropil, which is the region that...

Calcium-mediated paired pulse depression in juvenile rat dorsal striatum.

Neural regeneration research

Neural Regen Res. 2012 Apr 05;7(10):772-7. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1673-5374.2012.10.008.

As the major division of the basal ganglia, neostriatum forms mutual connections with multiple brain areas and is critically involved in motor control and learning/memory. Long-term synaptic plasticity has been widely studied in different species recently. However, there are...

Effects of a Flavonoid-Rich Fraction on the Acquisition and Extinction of Fear Memory: Pharmacological and Molecular Approaches.

Frontiers in behavioral neuroscience

de Oliveira DR, Zamberlam CR, Rêgo GM, Cavalheiro A, Cerutti JM, Cerutti SM.
PMID: 26778988
Front Behav Neurosci. 2016 Jan 05;9:345. doi: 10.3389/fnbeh.2015.00345. eCollection 2015.

The effects of flavonoids have been correlated with their ability to modulate the glutamatergic, serotoninergic, and GABAergic neurotransmission; the major targets of these substances are N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor (NMDARs), serotonin type1A receptor (5-HT1ARs), and the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A...

Effects of white rice containing enriched gamma-aminobutyric acid on blood pressure.

Journal of traditional and complementary medicine

Nishimura M, Yoshida S, Haramoto M, Mizuno H, Fukuda T, Kagami-Katsuyama H, Tanaka A, Ohkawara T, Sato Y, Nishihira J.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter with beneficial effects including antihypertension and antistress properties. In this study, we examined the effects of GABA-enriched white rice (GABA rice) on blood pressure (BP) in 39 mildly hypertensive adults in a...

Catatonia: Our current understanding of its diagnosis, treatment and pathophysiology.

World journal of psychiatry

Catatonia is a psychomotor syndrome that has been reported to occur in more than 10% of patients with acute psychiatric illnesses. Two subtypes of the syndrome have been identified. Catatonia of the retarded type is characterized by immobility, mutism,...

Effects of valproic acid on sympathetic activity and left ventricularmyocardial remodelling in rats during pressure overload.

Turkish journal of medical sciences

Turk J Med Sci. 2017 Nov 13;47(5):1651-1660. doi: 10.3906/sag-1704-142.

Background/aim: Pressure overload induces cardiac remodelling and results in heart failure. Enhanced sympathetic outflow participates in the development of cardiac remodelling for the duration of pressure overload as an independent factor. Valproic acid has recently been shown to reduce...
