Rats were given repeated injections of 10 mg/kg of morphine and were then left undisturbed for 24-25 days before their brains were processed for Golgi-Cox staining. Prior exposure to morphine decreased the complexity of dendritic branching and the number of dendritic spines on medium spiny neurons i

The neural connections from the nucleus accumbens to the mediodorsal nucleus of the thalamus were investigated in urethane-anesthetized rats. Extracellular recordings were made from 84 spontaneously firing neurons in the mediodorsal nucleus of the thalamus while the nucleus accumbens was electricall
With the object of investigating the so-called "feed-back" mechanism whereby hormones from the various endocrine glands presumably influence the hypothalamus in its regulation of the hypophyseal tropic hormones, the effect of hypophysectomy, ovariectomy, thyroidectomy, adrenalectomy and adrenal medu
Quantitative methods were used to compare the changes taking place in the volume of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) and corresponding neurons of young, adult and old rats. The study was carried out on male albino rats aged 3, 18, 24 and 28 months. In order to estimate the volume of the
We used FOS-like immunohistochemistry to detect neuronal activity in the pontine parabrachial nucleus after injection of formalin into the lower lip of the awake rat and compared the labeling pattern with that seen after formalin injection into the hindpaw. One hour after a formalin injection into t
