PARTIAL SPINAL NERVE LIGATION ALTERS ANATOMICAL COMPONENTS OF OXYTOCIN SIGNALING AND THE LEVEL OF TONIC OXYTOCIN-MEDIATED INHIBITION OF NOCICEPTION
… that oxytocin may contribute to endogenous inhibitory tone in chronic pain. We investigated mechanisms of oxytocin signaling that may be altered by partial spinal nerve ligation (pSNL) injury and contribute to the apparent recovery of pain after pSNL injury in rats.

Cellular and Circuit Consequences of a Genetic Locus for Attention
… in GABAergic receptors corresponded to strong inhibitory tone in PFC. This enhanced inhibitory influence, together with dynamic neuromodulatory coupling, led to strikingly low PFC activity at baseline periods of an attention task but targeted elevations at cue onset, predicting short-latency …

Experience-dependent dendrite remodeling of GABAergic interneurons in the adult visual cortex
… It was previously shown that dendritic arbors of inhibitory interneurons in superficial layer 2/3 can remodel in the adult cortex. Here, we investigated the role of these structural rearrangements during experience-dependent adult plasticity. Using in vivo two photon imaging, we monitored …

Anomalies of GABAergic system associated with HIV-1 infection
… HIV-infected patients suggest іmpаired GABAergic inhibitory neurotransmission аnalоgous to neurological and psychiatric disorders such as Parkinson’s disеаse and schizophrenia. In this study I performed investigations into the neurochemical characteristics and neuropathological, neurocognitive and …

Neurotransmitter Modulation of Alcohol-Induced GABAergic Signaling in the Central Amygdala
… how OXT, CRF, and 5-HT modulate GABAergic inhibitory transmission in the CeA under alcohol-naïve and chronic alcohol–dependent conditions in male and female Wistar rats. Using whole-cell patch-clamp electrophysiology in acute brain slices, inhibitory postsynaptic currents (IPSCs) were …

Neurosteroids: endogenous analgesics?
… suggesting an imbalance between excitatory and inhibitory signals converging within this structure. GABAergic neurones within the spinal cord and thalamus are crucial for the transmission of painful stimuli to higher centres of the brain that are involved in pain perception. GABAA receptors …
