Effects of ACTH(1-24) on single unit activity in the brainstem of the rat.

Abstract:

:Central administration of corticotropin-like peptides generally blocks the analgesic action of opiate ligands, yet it is unclear whether this is due to an independent hyperalgesic action of corticotropin or to some other mechanism. Single cells in the ventromedial medulla of the anaesthetized rat were characterized as either excited by noxious stimuli or inhibited. Injections of ACTH(1-24) excited cells that were excited by noxious stimuli and inhibited cells that were inhibited by noxious stimuli. The results support an independent role for corticotropin-like peptides in pain-modulating mechanisms.

  • GABAergic modulation of 5-HT7 receptor-mediated effects on 5-HT efflux in the guinea-pig dorsal raphe nucleus.

    abstract::5-HT(7) receptor mRNA and protein are localised in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) on non-serotonergic neurones. The effect of 5-HT(7) receptor antagonism on 5-HT efflux was measured from guinea-pig DRN slices, using the technique of fast cyclic voltammetry. The 5-HT(7) receptor antagonist, SB-269970-A, significantly i...
