Increase in cortical endocannabinoid signaling in a rat model of basal forebrain cholinergic dysfunction

Llorente-ovejero A, Manuel I, Giralt MT, Rodríguez-puertas R (2017) Increase in cortical endocannabinoid signaling in a rat model of basal forebrain cholinergic dysfunction. Neuroscience 362:206-218.. doi: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2017.08.008

Objective: To evaluate the eCB signaling in relation to the memory impairment induced in adult rats following a specific cholinergic lesion of the basal forebrain.

Summary: CB1 receptors present in presynaptic GABAergic terminals in the hippocampus are down regulated, but not those in cortical glutamatergic synapses.

Usage: 192-IgG-SAP was dissolved in aCSF under aseptic conditions to a final concentration of 130 ng/ml. aCSF or 192-IgG-SAP was bilaterally injected (1 ml/hemisphere) at a constant rate of 0.2 ml/min.
