Capsaicin impairs preoptic serotonin-sensitive structures mediating hypothermia in rats.

abstract：:We previously reported that the amyloid-beta protein (Abeta) reduces the synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) in a mouse septal cell line, SN56, without causing death of the cells. Here, we report that the ACh-reducing effect of either Abeta 1-28 or Abeta 1-42 (100 nM; 48 h) in SN56 cells can be prevented by a co-treatmen...

abstract：:Recent evidence has suggested that down-regulation of somatostatin (SST) expression in the human brain during early stages of aging leads to an elevation in the steady-state levels of Abeta and therefore may be involved in Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression. We hypothesized that alterations in the SST gene might alt...
