Involvement of the insular cortex in the consolidation and expression of contextual fear conditioning
(European Journal of Neuroscience, 2013-07-01) [Artigo]
The insular cortex (IC) has been reported to be involved in the modulation of memory and autonomic and defensive responses. However, there is conflicting evidence about the role of the IC in fear conditioning. To explore ...
Cannabidiol administration into the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis alters cardiovascular responses induced by acute restraint stress through 5-HT1A receptor
(European Neuropsychopharmacology, 2013-09-01) [Artigo]
Systemic administration of cannabidiol (CBD) is able to attenuate cardiovascular responses to acute restraint stress through activation of 5-HT1A receptors. Previous results from our group suggest that the bed nucleus of ...
Cardiovascular effects of noradrenaline microinjected into the insular cortex of unanesthetized rats
(Autonomic Neuroscience-basic & Clinical, 2011-02-24) [Artigo]
The insular cortex (IC) has been reported to be involved in central cardiovascular control. In the present study, we investigated the cardiovascular responses evoked by microinjection of noradrenaline into the IC as well ...
Chronic fluoxetine treatment alters cardiovascular functions in unanesthetized rats
(European Journal of Pharmacology, 2011-11-30) [Artigo]
In the present study, we investigated the effects induced by fluoxetine treatment (10 mg/kg) for either 1 or 21 consecutive days on arterial pressure and heart rate basal levels, baroreflex activity, hemodynamic responses ...
Bed nucleus of the stria terminalis and the cardiovascular responses to chemoreflex activation
(Autonomic Neuroscience-basic & Clinical, 2012-04-03) [Artigo]
Several studies from our group have indicated that the BNST play an important role in baroreflex modulation. However, the involvement of the BNST in the chemoreflex activity is unknown. Thus, in the present study, we ...
Chemoreflex and baroreflex alterations in Parkinsonism induced by 6-OHDA in unanesthetized rats
(Neuroscience Letters, 2015-10-21) [Artigo]
Parkinson's disease (PD) is mainly characterized by motor signals. However, non-motor signals also affect and decrease the quality of life of PD patients. Among these non-motor signs are cardiovascular disorders as orthostatic ...
Cardiovascular and autonomic alterations in rats with parkinsonism induced by 6-OHDA and treated with L-DOPA
(Life Sciences, 2015) [Artigo]
Evaluate the effects caused by L-DOPA on cardiovascular and autonomic parameters in an animal model of Parkinsonism induced by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA).Adult male Wistar rats were subjected to bilateral microinfusion of ...
