Effect of harmaline on the cerebello-rubral system. 1977

G Gogolák, and R Jindra, and C Stumpf

Harmaline induces synchronous rhythms in both the cerebellum and the red nucleus of the rabbit. The level of synchronization is lower in the red nucleus than in the cerebellar cortex, probably because the cerebello-rubral pathway and the red nucleus neurons only participate poorly in the harmaline-induced olivo-cerebellar rhythm.

D011817	Rabbits	A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D012012	Red Nucleus	A pinkish-yellow portion of the midbrain situated in the rostral mesencephalic tegmentum. It receives a large projection from the contralateral half of the CEREBELLUM via the superior cerebellar peduncle and a projection from the ipsilateral MOTOR CORTEX.	Nucleus Ruber,Nucleus, Red
D002531	Cerebellum	The part of brain that lies behind the BRAIN STEM in the posterior base of skull (CRANIAL FOSSA, POSTERIOR). It is also known as the "little brain" with convolutions similar to those of CEREBRAL CORTEX, inner white matter, and deep cerebellar nuclei. Its function is to coordinate voluntary movements, maintain balance, and learn motor skills.	Cerebella,Corpus Cerebelli,Parencephalon,Cerebellums,Parencephalons

D006246	Harmaline	A beta-carboline alkaloid isolated from seeds of PEGANUM.	3H-Pyrido(3,4-b)indole, 4,9-dihydro-7-methoxy-1-methyl-,Dihydroharmine,Harmidine
D000470	Alkaloids	Organic nitrogenous bases. Many alkaloids of medical importance occur in the animal and vegetable kingdoms, and some have been synthesized. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)	Alkaloid,Plant Alkaloid,Plant Alkaloids,Alkaloid, Plant,Alkaloids, Plant
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
