Decreased dopamine D2 receptor availability is associated with reduced frontal metabolism in cocaine abusers
Tập 14 Số 2 - Trang 169-177 - 1993
N D Volkow, Joanna S. Fowler, G. J. Wang, Robert Hitzemann, Jean Logan, David Schlyer, S L Dewey, Alfred P. Wolf
AbstractDecreased dopaminergic function has been postulated to underlie cocaine addiction. To examine the possibility that dysfunction of brain regions subserved by the dopamine system could promote cocaine self‐administration, positron emission tomography and a dual‐tracer approach was used to examine dopamine D2 receptor availability and regi...... hiện toàn bộ
Systemic nicotine‐induced dopamine release in the rat nucleus accumbens is regulated by nicotinic receptors in the ventral tegmental area
Tập 16 Số 1 - Trang 36-44 - 1994
Margret Nisell, George G. Nomikos, Torgny H. Svensson
AbstractStimulation of the mesolimbic dopamine (DA) system is considered of major importance for the rewarding and dependence producing properties of nicotine (NIC). To identify the site of this stimulatory action, simultaneous microdialysis was performed in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and the ipsilateral nucleus accumbens (NAC) of awake rats. Extracellular co...... hiện toàn bộ
Intracellular studies in the facial nucleus illustrating a simple new method for obtaining viable motoneurons in adult rat brain slices
Tập 3 Số 4 - Trang 331-338 - 1989
George K. Aghajanian, Kurt Rasmussen
AbstractIn general, it has been difficult to preserve electrophysiologically viable motoneurons in brain slices from adult mammals. The present study describes a new method for obtaining viable motoneurons in the facial nucleus of adult rat brain slices. The essence of the method was to use a modified artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) in which NaCl was replaced...... hiện toàn bộ
“Nonhedonic” food motivation in humans involves dopamine in the dorsal striatum and methylphenidate amplifies this effect
Tập 44 Số 3 - Trang 175-180 - 2002
Nora D. Volkow, G. J. Wang, Joanna S. Fowler, Jean Logan, Millard Jayne, Dinko Franceschi, Cristopher Wong, S. John Gatley, Andrew N. Gifford, Yu‐Shin Ding, Naomi Pappas
AbstractThe drive for food is one of the most powerful of human and animal behaviors. Dopamine, a neurotransmitter involved with motivation and reward, its believed to regulate food intake in laboratory animals by modulating its rewarding effects through the nucleus accumbens (NA). Here we assess the involvement of dopamine in “nonhedonic” food motivation in humans...... hiện toàn bộ
The serotoninergic innervation of cerebral cortex: Different classes of axon terminals arise from dorsal and median raphe nuclei
Tập 1 Số 2 - Trang 153-168 - 1987
Barry E. Kosofsky, Mark E. Molliver
AbstractThe objective of the present study was to characterize the morphology of serotoninergic axons in cerebral cortex of the rat and to determine whether dissimilar axon terminals arise from the dorsal vs. the median raphe nuclei. The anterograde tracer PHA‐L was administered by iontophoresis into the dorsal (DR) and median (MR) raphe nuclei, and the morphologic...... hiện toàn bộ
Psychosis pathways converge via D2High dopamine receptors
Tập 60 Số 4 - Trang 319-346 - 2006
Philip Seeman, Johannes Schwarz, Jiang‐Fan Chen, Henry Szechtman, Melissa L. Perreault, G. Stanley McKnight, John Roder, Rémi Quirion, Patricia Boksa, Lalit K. Srivastava, Kazuhiko Yanai, David Weinshenker, Tomiki Sumiyoshi
Molecular alterations in the neostriatum of human cocaine addicts
Tập 13 Số 4 - Trang 357-369 - 1993
Yasmin L. Hurd, Miles Herkenham
AbstractMolecular changes in the neostriatum of human subjects who died with a history of cocaine abuse were revealed in discrete cell populations by means of the techniques of in situ hybridization histochemistry and in vitro receptor binding and autoradiography. Cocaine subjects had a history of repeated cocaine use and had cocaine and/or cocaine metabolites on b...... hiện toàn bộ
Relationship between blockade of dopamine transporters by oral methylphenidate and the increases in extracellular dopamine: Therapeutic implications
Tập 43 Số 3 - Trang 181-187 - 2002
Nora D. Volkow, Gene‐Jack Wang, Joanna S. Fowler, Jean Logan, Dinko Franceschi, Laurence Maynard, Yu‐Shin Ding, S. John Gatley, Andrew J. Gifford, Wei Zhu, James M. Swanson
AbstractMethylphenidate (Ritalin) is an effective drug in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. However, the doses required therapeutically vary significantly between subjects and it is not understood what determines these differences. Since methylphenidate's therapeutic effects are in part due to increases in extracellular DA secondary to bloc...... hiện toàn bộ
Brain imaging of 18F‐fallypride in normal volunteers: Blood analysis, distribution, test‐retest studies, and preliminary assessment of sensitivity to aging effects on dopamine D‐2/D‐3 receptors
Tập 46 Số 3 - Trang 170-188 - 2002
Jogeshwar Mukherjee, Bradley T. Christian, Kelly Dunigan, Bingzhi Shi, Tanjore K. Narayanan, Martin Satter, Joseph Mantil
AbstractHuman studies of dopamine D2/D3 receptors using 18F‐fallypride‐PET in normal volunteers were performed to evaluate brain distribution in striatal and extrastriatal regions, evaluate metabolites in blood plasma, establish PET imaging protocol for this new radiotracer, evaluate graphical methods of analysis to quantitate D2/D3 receptors, ...... hiện toàn bộ
Cocaine: An in vivo microdialysis evaluation of its acute action on dopamine transmission in rat striatum
Tập 3 Số 1 - Trang 48-54 - 1989
Yasmin L. Hurd, Urban Ungerstedt
AbstractThe effects of cocaine on dopamine (DA) neurotransmission were evaluated by in vivo microdialysis in the striatum of halothane‐anesthetized rats. Intravenous cocaine produced a dose‐dependent, transient increase of the extracellular concentration of DA, with a peak response within 10 min and a return to control level by 30 min. The sharp DA response pattern...... hiện toàn bộ
