Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of excitatory synaptic transmission in the anterior cingulate cortex of adult tree shrew

TL;DR: It is found that glutamate is the major excitatory transmitter for fast synaptic transmission in tree shrews, and tree shrew neurons showed higher initial firing frequency and neuronal excitability with a cell type-specific manner in the ACC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thalamic nucleus submedius receives GABAergic projection from thalamic reticular nucleus in the rat.

TL;DR: In this article, retrograde labeling with Fluoro-Gold combined with immunohistochemistry for GABA, and anterograde labeling with biotinylated dextranamine was performed on the medial thalamus of a rat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anterior insular cortex mediates hyperalgesia induced by chronic pancreatitis in rats.

TL;DR: The results showed that TNBS treatment resulted in long-term hyperalgesia and anxiety-like behavior in rats, providing a novel insight into cortical modulation of painful CP and shedding light on aIC as a potential target for neuromodulation interventions in the treatment of CP.
Journal ArticleDOI

8-O-Acetyl Shanzhiside Methylester From Lamiophlomis Rotata Reduces Neuropathic Pain by Inhibiting the ERK/TNF-α Pathway in Spinal Astrocytes.

TL;DR: The anti-nociceptive effects of 8-OaS in the condition of NP relied on the inhibition of SNL-induced astrocyte activation, probably via the down-regulation of the ERK/TNF-α pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nucleus tractus solitarius mediates hyperalgesia induced by chronic pancreatitis in rats.

TL;DR: It is suggested that enhanced excitatory transmission within the caudal NTS contributes to pancreatic pain and emphasize the NTS as a pivotal hub for the processing of pancreatic afferents, which provide novel insights into the central sensitization of painful CP.
