In this study, we examined the effect of the acute and repeated administration of the selective sigma () 1 receptor agonist 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl)-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine dihydrochloride (SA4503) on the number and firing pattern of spontaneously active dopamine (DA) neurons in substantia ni
The degradation of dopamine by monoamine oxidase (MAO) enzymes plays an important role in the function of dopamine receptors in the central nervous system. Accordingly, it has already been reported that the blockade of MAO by specific inhibitors prolongs the effects of dopamine on its receptors. By
## Abstract The sulphated octapeptide Cβterminal fragment of cholecystokinin (CCKβ8s) is present in high concentration in the mammalian brain, where it acts via two types of receptor denoted CCK~A~, and CCK~B~. In the dorsal hippocampus, CCKβ8S exerts a potent excitatory effect on pyramidal neurons
The central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) receives a dopaminergic (DA) innervation from the midbrain. Among its many efferent projections, the CeA innervates the substantia nigra. The possibility that the CeA influences the activity of nigral DA neurons was evaluated. The effects of electrical stimu
