The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), which functions as a biological clock, contains several neuropeptides such as vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), peptide histidine isoleucine (PHI), and gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP). Studies from several laboratories have provided evidence for the coexistence

A double immunocytochemical method combining the preembedding avidin biotin peroxidase complex technique and the postembedding immunogold technique was used to examine synaptic interactions between GABAergic and nitric oxide synthase containing neurons in the same tissue sections of the dorsal raphe
## Abstract An imbalance of excitatory and inhibitory functions has been shown to contribute to numerous pathological disorders. Accumulating evidence supports the idea that a change in hypothalamic γ‐aminobutyic acid (GABA)‐ergic inhibitory and glutamatergic excitatory synaptic functions contribut
