Blockage of glucocorticoid, but not mineralocorticoid receptors prevents the persistent increase in circulating basal corticosterone concentrations following stress in the rat.

abstract：:A restricted recovery of visual excitation occurs in the partially deafferented dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the cat after retinal lesions. In the absence of axonal growth an increase of retinogeniculate synapses at the peripheral dendrites of deafferented cells could be a possible underlying mechanism....

abstract：:Respiration can be automatic or controlled behaviorally. Behavioral control in the cat occurs, at least in part, through control of the brainstem respiratory neurons that constitute the automatic system. Thus, when inspiration is inhibited behaviorally, inspiratory neurons in the medulla are inactivated. Reported here...
