A GABAergic projection from the central nucleus of the amygdala to the parabrachial nucleus: an ultrastructural study of anterograde tracing in combination with post-embedding immunocytochemistry in the rat.

abstract：:The effects of glutamate, glutamate receptor agonists and substances that affect glutamate responses were studied, using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique, on neurons isolated from adult rat dorsal root ganglia. In current-clamp, glutamate (100 microM) or the excitatory amino acid receptor agonist N-methyl-D-aspart...
