Differential effects of LSD serotonin and l-tryptophan on visually evoked responses
TL;DR: Modification of raphe neuronal activity can significantly alter photically evoked responses, and may explain the perceptual disturbances associated with LSD, i.e., depression of an area (raphe) normally inhibiting forebrain areas of the visual system.

Serotonin, Alzheimer’s Disease and Learning and Memory in Animals
TL;DR: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most tragic and devastating neurologic disorder of the elderly, characterized by personality deterioration and a variety of cognitive disabilities highlighted by memory loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypothalamic neurons responding to hemodynamic input and to stimulation in the pons may influence adrenocorticotropin release
TL;DR: The data suggest that some hypothalamic neurons involved in the hemodynamic control of ACTH release receive a projection from or through the dorsal raphe nucleus medially, and the ventral locus ceruleus, locus subceruleu, and underlying reticular formation laterally, however, other neurons may receive projections that bypass these regions.

Ethanol-induced conditioned taste aversion in the rat: effects of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine lesion of the dorsal raphe nucleus.
TL;DR: The results of the present study may indicate that central serotonergic projections do not have a primary role in the aversive effects of high doses of ethanol in the rat, and it seems that Serotonergic neurons of the DRN may play some modulatory role in aversive-stimulus properties of moderate doses of alcohol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of raphe lesions on brain serotonin in the cat
TL;DR: The results suggest that CS and Dr may integrate different serotonergic subsystems and, probably, each one of these subsystems is related to specific functional phenomena.

TL;DR: There are several reasons for thinking that this method may offer a number of advantages over other currently available techniques, and it should be possible to do this by locally injecting radioactively labeled precursors of proteins or other macromolecules into the brain or spinal cord.

Hippocampal projections and related neural pathways to the mid-brain in the cat
TL;DR: Recent studies in the rat have confirmed much earlier descriptions of widespread distributions of the fornix system to the diencephalon and the rostral mid-brain regions.

Studies on the distribution and fate of S35-labelled benzylpenicillin in the body.
TL;DR: The aim of this investigation was to study how penicillin is distributed from the blood to different body tissues and how it is bound, inactivated and excreted and to provide possibilities of studying the dif ferent ways of excretion as well as the problem of accumulation in the organs.

Afferents to the rat caudoputamen studied with horseradish peroxidase. An evaluation of a retrograde neuroanatomical research method
TL;DR: The evidence presented suggests first, that the degree of localization at the injection site is compatible with approaching some problems in neuroanatomy; second, that anterograde transport of the marker protein does not appear to confound the interpretation of retrogradely labeled cell bodies; third, that many, though not all, afferent cell populations can be identified.
