Substance P (SP) levels in the spinal cords of very old rats are less than the levels in younger rats (Bergman et al., 1996). After injury to a peripheral nerve in young rats, immunoreactivity (ir) to the SP receptor, NK-1 (neurokinin-1), increases…

The purpose of this work is to present a perspective of the conditioned place preference (CPP) test by offering an overview of the empirical research from 1957-1991. The intent is not to extensively analyze the controversies inherent to any…

To probe the binding of a peptide agonist to a G-protein coupled receptor in native membranes, the spin-labeled amino acid analogue 4-amino-4-carboxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperidino-1-oxyl (TOAC) was substituted at either position 4 or 9 within the…

1 The neuropeptide substance P (SP) exerts an excitatory effect on sympathetic neurones by inhibiting a time- and voltage-dependent potassium current. During prolonged application of SP, the response desensitizes. The changes in kinetics of the SP…

The positive chronotropic and inotropic effects of vasoactive intestinal peptide, VIP, were studied in an isolated canine right atrial preparation, Atria were removed, maintained in a bath, and perfused with Tyrode's solution. Contractile force and…

Over 30 nuclei have been identified in the reticular formation of rats, but only a small number of distinct reticular nuclei have been recognized in frogs. We used immunohistochemistry, retrograde tracing, and cell morphology to identify nuclei…
