Parvalbumin as an anatomical marker for discrete subregions of the ambiguus complex in the rat.

Abstract:

:The topography of parvalbumin-immunoreactive neurons within the ventrolateral medulla of rats was investigated. Parvalbumin is a member of the 'EF-hand' family of Ca-binding proteins and is present in certain cell types within the central nervous system (fast-firing neurons with high metabolic rates). Parvalbumin-immunoreactive neurons were located in discrete rostrocaudal divisions of the ambiguus complex corresponding to regions containing respiratory-related neurons. Based on the location of physiologically characterized respiratory-related neurons reported in the literature, parvalbumin immunoreactivity does not appear to distinguish inspiratory- from expiratory-related neurons.

  • Absence seizures are reduced by the enhancement of GABA-ergic inhibition in the hippocampus in WAG/Rij rats.

    abstract::Classical theories on absence epilepsy suggest that spike-wave discharge (SWDs) represent thalamo-cortical oscillations, where an abnormally excitable cortex interacts with thalamus and brain stem reticular formation. The limbic system is generally not included in any theory about the pathogenesis of absence seizures....
