Organism's resistance to acute severe hypoxia (3% O2) was studied after administration of GABA(A) receptor antagonist picrotoxin and adenosine receptor antagonist euphylline (aminophylline) and after neutralization of secondary hypocapnia by adding 7% CO2 to the hypoxic mixture. Administration of
During hypoxia a number of physiological changes occur within neurons including the stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs). The activity of these proteins is regulated by O2, Fe2+, 2-OG and ascorbate-dependant hydroxylases which contain prolyl-4-hydroxylase domains (PHDs). PHD inhibitors
Intoxication caused by intramuscular injection of picrotoxin and eserine (5 and 10 mg/kg) to albino rats is found to increase the degree of coupling of oxidation to phosphorylation and the rate of succinate oxidation. The conclusion may be drawn that the reaction of the oxidative phosphorylation
The aim of this study was to examine the response of phrenic and hypoglossal motor outputs to hyperoxia and 11% hypoxia during picrotoxin-induced seizures. Adult rats were anesthetized with a mixture of urethane with alpha-chloralose. The animals were bilaterally vagotomized, paralyzed, and
In experiments on rats it was shown that injection to rats before hemorrhage of analeptic corasol or prior injections during three days of the inhibitory mediator sodium oxybutyrate decrease individual resistance of the respiratory and circulatory systems (arterial blood pressure, cardiac output,
1. We investigated the mechanism of hypoxia-induced depression of gamma-aminobutyric acid-A (GABAA)-mediated inhibitory postsynaptic currents (IPSCs) in CA1 neurons of hippocampal slices from 21- to 28-day-old rats. Cells were examined by whole-cell patch-clamp recording and hypoxia was induced by
Respiratory rhythm changes and hypoxic ventilatory responses were studied in anesthetized albino rats after administration GABA and adenosine receptor antagonists. Intracisternal microinjection of picrotoxin induced pathological periodic breathing. Picrotoxin intravenous administration caused the
Unlike anoxia-intolerant mammals, painted turtles can survive extended periods without oxygen. This is partly accomplished by an anoxia-mediated increase in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) release, which activates GABA receptors and mediates spike arrest in turtle neurons via shunting inhibition.
Deficiency in energy supply, such as occurs during hypoxia, anoxia, metabolic stress and mitochondrial failure, strongly affects the excitability of central neurons. Such lowered energy supply evokes various changes in spontaneous synaptic input to the hippocampal and cortical neurons. However, how
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the selective loss of motor neurons in the brainstem and spinal cord. Clinical studies have indicated that there is a distinct region-dependent difference in the vulnerability of motor neurons. For example,
The 'switching model' for generation of respiratory rhythms holds that gasping represents the release of a rostral medullary pacemaker mechanism from the pontomedullary neuronal circuit that generates eupnea. In a perfused preparation of the decerebrate juvenile rat, exposure to ischemia or
1. The i.v. administration of convulsant doses of penetrazole or picrotoxin induced an increase in PGF2 alpha, PGE2 and TXB2-like immunoreactive material in mouse brain tissue. The onset of increase coincided with the appearance of clonic seizures. 2. The anticonvulsant drugs trimethadione and
Spontaneous dorsal root potentials (sDRPs) were recorded from the dorsal roots of the isolated frog spinal cord using sucrose gap techniques. sDRPs were always negative (depolarizing) in sign and ranged in size from about 100 microV to 6.0 mV. The largest sDRPs were 25-40% of the amplitude of DRPs
All infants have some degree of hypoxia and respiratory acidosis at birth, but these conditions are more profound in the asphyxiated newborn. The newborn infant is very susceptible to cooling and may require warming. Skin temperature should be maintained between 36-36.5 degrees .(2) Resuscitation of
