Effects of estrogen on the excitability of neurons projecting from the noradrenergic A1 region to the preoptic and anterior hypothalamic area. 1983

H Kaba, and H Saito, and K Otsuka, and K Seto, and M Kawakami

Estradiol benzoate administered to ovariectomized female rats significantly elevated the mean spontaneous firing rate and frequency of successful antidromic propagation into the somatodendritic spike and significantly reduced the strength of post-stimulus inhibition in presumed A1 noradrenergic neurons projecting directly to the preoptic and anterior hypothalamic area. The occurrence of both antidromic spikes and post-stimulus inhibition of the majority of these neurons was completely abolished by the injection of 6-hydroxydopamine but not by 5, 7-dihydroxytryptamine directly into the medial forebrain bundle.

D009474 Neurons The basic cellular units of nervous tissue. Each neuron consists of a body, an axon, and dendrites. Their purpose is to receive, conduct, and transmit impulses in the NERVOUS SYSTEM. Nerve Cells,Cell, Nerve,Cells, Nerve,Nerve Cell,Neuron
D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.
