Electrophysiological evidence that noradrenergic afferents selectively facilitate the activity of supraoptic vasopressin neurons

Open access
Day, Trevor A., Renaud, Leo P.·1984·Brain Research

Abstract

The functional role of the ascending projection from A1 noradrenergic neurons of the caudal ventrolateral medulla to the supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus was investigated by examining the effects of electrical stimulation of the A1 region on the activity of supraoptic neurons deemed to be vasopressinergic or oxytocinergic on the basis of basal firing patterns and responsivity to baroreceptor activation. A1 stimulation enhanced the activity of all putative vasopressin-secreting supraoptic neurons tested. This effect appeared to be selective in that no putative oxytocin-secreting neurons were excited by A1 stimulation. Destruction of the supraoptic noradrenergic terminal plexus by local application of the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine abolished the facilitatory effects of A1 stimulation but did not noticeably alter basal activity patterns, nor the influence of baroreceptor inhibitory pathways. These findings suggest a facilitatory role for noradrenergic afferents in regulating the activity of neurohypophysially-projecting vasopressin neurons of the supraoptic nucleus.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
