Ma. Eva González-Trujano,Elisa Tapia,Leonor Lopez-Meraz,Andrés Navarrete,Adelfo Reyes-Ramírez,Adrián Martínez +5 more
TL;DR: To evaluate hypnotic and anticonvulsant activities of Annona diversifolia Saff.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of repeated administration of Annona diversifolia Saff. (ilama) extracts and palmitone on rat amygdala kindling.
Ma. Eva González-Trujano,Leonor Lopez-Meraz,Adelfo Reyes-Ramírez,Miguel Aguillón,Adrián Martínez +4 more
TL;DR: Results reinforce the anticonvulsant properties of this plant, and palmitone and other constituents are responsible for the pharmacological effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pre-Bötzinger complex: Generation and modulation of respiratory rhythm
J. Muñoz-Ortiz,E. Muñoz-Ortiz,Leonor Lopez-Meraz,Luis Beltran-Parrazal,Consuelo Morgado-Valle +4 more
TL;DR: Clinical neurologists will find the effects of certain drugs on the inspiratory activity in vitro in a transverse slice that contains the preBotC relevant to understanding how the central nervous system generates the respiratory rhythm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Substitution of extracellular Ca2+ by Sr2+ prolongs inspiratory burst in pre-Bötzinger complex inspiratory neurons.
TL;DR: These findings suggest that the increase in inspiratory burst duration is determined by a presynaptic mechanism involving desynchronization of glutamate release within the network, and substituted extracellular Ca(2+) with Sr(2+ is a well-established method to desynchronize neurotransmitter release.
