Involvement of the lateral habenula in the regulation of generalized anxiety- and panic-related defensive responses in rats.

29 Apr 2008 Recently obtained evidence points to the involvement of the lateral habenular nuclei (LHb) in the mediation of coping defensive responses to threatening/stressful stimuli. Nevertheless, the role of this brain area in the regulation of defensive ...

Differential tonic influence of lateral habenula on prefrontal cortex and nucleus accumbens dopamine release.

30 Mar 2008 Conditions of increased cognitive or emotional demand activate dopamine release in a regionally selective manner. Whereas the brief millisecond response of dopamine neurons to salient stimuli suggests that dopamine's influence on behaviour may be ...

Brain asymmetry is encoded at the level of axon terminal morphology.

29 Mar 2008 BACKGROUND: Functional lateralization is a conserved feature of the central nervous system (CNS). However, underlying left-right asymmetries within neural circuitry and the mechanisms by which they develop are poorly described. RESULTS: In this ...

Contact with infants modulates anxiety-generated c-fos activity in the brains of postpartum rats.

8 Mar 2008 The postpartum period is associated with many behavioral changes, including a reduction in anxiety, which is thought to be necessary for mothers' ability to appropriately care for infants. In laboratory rats, this reduction in anxiety requires ...

Negative motivational control of saccadic eye movement by the lateral habenula.

30 Dec 2007 Reward is crucial for survival of animals and influences animal behaviours. For example, an approaching behaviour to reward is more frequently and quickly elicited when a big reward is expected than when a small reward is expected. Midbrain dopamine ...

Potential surgical targets for deep brain stimulation in treatment-resistant depression.

30 Dec 2007 OBJECT: The goal of this study was to evaluate the definition of treatment-resistant depression (TRD), review the literature regarding deep brain stimulation (DBS) for TRD, and identify potential anatomical and functional targets for future ...

Neuronal dysfunction of a long projecting multisynaptic pathway in response to methamphetamine using manganese-enhanced MRI.

12 Nov 2007 RATIONALE: Manganese (Mn2+)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MEMRI) is an emerging in vivo MR approach for pharmacological research. One new application of MEMRI in this area is to characterize functional changes of a specific neural circuit ...

Lateral habenula lesions improve the behavioral response in depressed rats via increasing the serotonin level in dorsal raphe nucleus.

30 Oct 2007 The dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN)-serotonin (5-HT) system plays a key role in stress-related psychiatric disorders such as anxiety and depression. The habenular nucleus (Hb) is closely connected with the DRN both morphologically and functionally. Here, ...

Disruption of Esrom and Ryk identifies the roof plate boundary as an intermediate target for commissure formation.

14 Oct 2007 Growth cones are guided to their final destination by intermediate targets. Here, we identify intermediate targets and signaling components acting on zebrafish habenula commissural axons. Live imaging establishes that axons pause at the medial ...
