Direct excitation of spinal GABAergic interneurons by noradrenaline.

13 Jul 2009 Endogenous pain control is, in part, mediated by descending inhibition of spinal nociception via spinal release of noradrenaline. Antinociception by activation of descending noradrenergic fibres has partially been attributed to the direct inhibition ... Read more...

Enhancement of the function of rat serotonin and norepinephrine neurons by sustained vagus nerve stimulation.

29 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a recent intervention for treatment-resistant depression. Electrophysiological recordings in the rat brain showed that VNS increases the firing rate of norepinephrine (NE) neurons after 1 day of ... Read more...

Parallel synthesis of potent dopaminergic N-phenyltriazole carboxamides applying a novel click chemistry based phenol linker.

23 Jun 2009 Taking advantage of our click chemistry based methodology to construct novel SPOS (solid phase organic synthesis) resins, the triazolylmethyl linked catechol 6a was discovered, which is readily available via copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne ... Read more...
