Abstract:
Learning and memory being highly specialized process of human brain involves complex interaction between neurotransmitters and cellular events. Over the years, the understandings of these processes have been evolving from psychological, neurophysiological, and pharmacological perspectives. The most widely appraised model of learning and memory involves attention, acquisition, storage and retrieval. Each of these events involve interplay of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, acetylcholine, norepinephrine, N-methyl-d-aspartic acid, gamma-aminobutyric acid, though preponderance of specific neuro

Recent years have seen the discovery of freely diffusing gaseous neurotransmitters, such as nitric oxide (NO), in biological nervous systems. A type of artificial neural network (ANN) inspired by such gaseous signaling, the GasNet, has previously been shown to be more evolvable than traditional ANNs when used as an artificial nervous system in an evolutionary robotics setting, where evolvability means consistent speed to very good solutions—here, appropriate sensorimotor behavior-generating systems.

In mammals a massive release of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate, occurring within a few minutes of anoxia/ischemia, is thought to be a major mediator of anoxic brain damage.

Using intracerebral microdialysis in turtle brain striatum, we have found a large increase in the extracellular level of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid during anoxia, reaching 90 times the normoxic level after 240 min, whereas no substantial release of glutamate occurred.

It is thought that there are two distinct modes of chemical neurotransmission, referred to as fast (synaptic) transmission and slow (volume) transmission. Fast transmission, mediated by ligand-gated ionotropic receptors, operate with millisecond temporal and nanometer spatial precision in excitatory and inhibitory synapses, primarily mediated by glutamate and GABA, respectively. In contrast, slow transmission relies on activation of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and is mediated by several classes of neuromodulators, including dopamine.

In severe hypoxia or ischemia, normal eupneic breathing is replaced by gasping, which can serve as a powerful mechanism for “autoresuscitation.” We have proposed that gasping is generated by medullary neurons having intrinsic pacemaker bursting properties dependent on a persistent sodium current. A number of neuromodulators, including serotonin, influence persistent sodium currents. Thus we hypothesized that endogenous serotonin is essential for gasping to be generated. To assess such a critical role for serotonin, a preparation of the perfused, juvenile in situ rat was used. Activities of the

Hybrid imaging using PET/MRI has emerged as a platform for elucidating novel neurobiology, molecular and functional changes in disease, and responses to physiological or pharmacological interventions. For the central nervous system, PET/MRI has provided insights into biochemical processes, linking selective molecular targets and distributed brain function. This review highlights several examples that leverage the strengths of simultaneous PET/MRI, which includes measuring the perturbation of multi-modal imaging signals on dynamic timescales during pharmacological challenges, physiological inte

Abstract:
Vasomotor reactivity of human pial veins, obtained in conjunction with neurosurgical operations, was studied in vitro. The effect of transmitters in nerves previously recognized in these vessels, as well as that of neuromodulators, was characterized. A comparison of these effects with their effects in the nearby pial arteries of the same patients was made. It was found that the veins were equipped with more sensitive α-adrenergic receptors (lower EC50 values) than the arteries. The reverse was found for 5-hydroxytryptamine.

Abstract:
Background: Homocysteine and taurine are non-proteinogenic sulfur-containing amino acids with numerous important physiological roles. Homocysteine and taurine are considered to be neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, the first showing clear hyperexcitability role, while the second is known by its inhibitory and neuroprotective properties. Objective: In this article we addressed the role of homocysteine and its related metabolite homocysteine thiolactone in the development of seizures, focusing on its experimental models in vivo, potential mechanisms of proepileptogenic activity via interacti

Abstract:
The quantitative distribution of FMRFamide-like peptides in the nervous system and in their putative target sites in the locust Schistocerca gregaria is described using radioimmunoassay techniques. The nature of the immunoreactive material has been characterized by high-pressure liquid chromatography. At least six peaks of FMRFamide-like immunoreactivity can be separated in extracts of locust nervous tissue. The relative proportions of these peaks vary from tissue to tissue, suggesting a differential expression of FMRFamide-like peptides in different parts of the locust nervous system. The bio

Abstract:
A basic survival need is the ability to respond to, and persevere in the midst of, experiential challenges. Mechanisms of neuroplasticity permit this responsivity via functional adaptations (flexibility), as well as more substantial structural modifications following chronic stress or injury. This review focuses on prefrontally based flexibility, expressed throughout large-scale neuronal networks through the actions of excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters and neuromodulators. With substance use disorders and stress-related internalizing disorders as exemplars, we review human behavioral

Abstract:
The peptide content of the glandular secretions of Litoria rubella specimens collected from Derby and Lake Argyle (Kimberley region of Western Australia) and from near Darwin in the Northern Territory are all quite different; this suggests that there are different frog populations in these three areas. These different populations may be indicative of either different species or different sub-species of frog. There are two separate families of peptides in the glandular secretion of 'Litoria rubella': ( i ) those corresponding to the tryptophyllin family (tetra- to hepta -peptides all containing
