Effects of progesterone on thermosensitive neurons in preoptic slice preparations

Tsai, Ching Lin, Matsumura, Kiyoshi, Nakayama, Teruo·1988·Neuroscience Letters

Abstract

Single neuronal activities in preoptic (PO) slice preparations from both male and female rats were recorded and examined for their responses to 3 ng/ml or 30 ng/ml progesterone (P). Of 31 warm-sensitive neurons, 19 (61.3%) were inhibited by P, 5 (16.1%) were excited, and 7 (22.6%) did not respond to P. Of 26 thermally insensitive neurons, 4 (15.4%) were inhibited by P, 3 (11.5%) were excited, and 19 (73.1%) did not respond to P. Of 4 cold-sensitive neurons, 3 were inhibited and one was excited. These results demonstrate that P inhibits most warm-sensitive neurons directly or indirectly via local neuronal circuits in the slice.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Taken together, these data support a rapid inhibitory effect of progesterone (not via progesterone receptors) on heat-loss and/or heat-production mechanisms in the POA.

    “Taken together, these data support a rapid inhibitory effect of progesterone (not via progesterone receptors) on heat-loss and/or heat-production mechanisms in the POA.”
  • In vitro studies using slice preparations showed that a greater proportion of warm-sensitive neurons (61%) than thermally insensitive neurons (15%) in the POA were inhibited by progesterone.

    “Fourth, in vitro studies using slice preparations, which isolate the actions of progesterone on thermosensitive neurons in the POA from other progesterone-sensitive areas, showed that a greater proportion of warm-sensitive neurons (61%) than thermally insensitive neurons (15%) in the POA were inhibited by progesterone [155] (Table 2).”

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.
