Rat brain cortex slices were used to study (1) the release of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) induced by activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) or non-NMDA receptors and (2) the alpha 2-adrenoceptor-mediated modulation of NMDA-evoked 5-HT release. Cortical slices were preincubated with [3H]5-HT in the
As a prerequisite to pharmacological analysis of the excitatory effects of serotonin (5-HT) on piriform pyramidal cells and interneurons, this study first examined the physiological characteristics of these two cell types. Intracellular recordings confirmed that the subpopulation of 5-HT-activated c
The role of serotonin in CNS function and in many neuropsychiatric diseases (e.g., schizophrenia, affective disorders, degenerative dementias) support the development of a reliable measure of serotonin receptor binding in vivo in human subjects. To this end, the regional distribution and intrasubjec
## Abstract The cannabinoids (CB) modulate the extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (ERK), leading to various forms of plasticity in the brain. Little is known, however, on the in vivo short‐ and long‐term activation and regulation of the components of mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK)/ERK s
