Zheng F, Khanna S (2001) Selective destruction of medial septal cholinergic neurons attenuates pyramidal cell suppression, but not excitation in dorsal hippocampus field CA1 induced by subcutaneous injection of formalin. Neuroscience 103(4):985-998. doi: 10.1016/s0306-4522(01)00006-9 Summary: Previously, the authors have shown that an injection of formalin in the hindpaw of rats will excite a select population […]

Deuchars J, Deuchars S (2001) It’s enough to raise your blood pressure!. Trends Neurosci 24(4):200. doi: 10.1016/s0166-2236(00)01800-2 Summary: The authors review studies completed by Schreihofer and Guyenet using anti-DBH-SAP (Cat. #IT-03) to eliminate C1 adrenergic neurons. The results show that, although C1 neurons play a role in some sympathoexcitatory responses, they are probably not responsible

Ritter S, Bugarith K, Dinh TT (2001) Immunotoxic destruction of distinct catecholamine subgroups produces selective impairment of glucoregulatory responses and neuronal activation. J Comp Neurol 432(2):197-216. doi: 10.1002/cne.1097 Summary: Control of regulatory responses to low glucose levels in the brain have been linked to catecholaminergic neurons. Studies of these neurons have been hindered by the

Ferencz I, Leanza G, Nonobashvili A, Kokaia Z, Kokaia M, Lindvall O (2001) Septal cholinergic neurons suppress seizure development in hippocampal kindling in rats: comparison with noradrenergic neurons. Neuroscience 102(4):819-832. doi: 10.1016/s0306-4522(00)00499-1 Summary: Kindling can be caused in rats by lesioning forebrain cholinergic or noradrenergic projections. Ferencz et al. utilize 192-Saporin (2.5 µg; Cat. #IT-01)

Paqueron X, Li X, Eisenach JC (2001) p75-expressing elements are necessary for anti-allodynic effects of spinal clonidine and neostigmine. Neuroscience 102(3):681-686. doi: 10.1016/s0306-4522(00)00528-5 Summary: It has been suggested that alpha2-adrenergic agonists produce analgesia by activating spinal cholinergic neurons. The authors reason that since spinal cholinergic neurons in the ventral horn express p75 following peripheral nerve

Hunt SP, Mantyh PW (2001) The molecular dynamics of pain control. Nature Rev Neurosci 2:83-91. doi: 10.1038/35053509 Summary: Over the last twenty years a great deal of progress has been made in the understanding of how pain is processed and transmitted by the CNS. The authors of this review highlight advances in systems neurobiology, behavioral
