Interleukin 6 (IL-6) plays an important role in stress response and glucocorticoid action on the brain. It has been also shown that IL-6 plays a significant role in physiological and pathological brain development and is a crucial factor in the effects of prenatal immune challenge on physiological and behavioral abnormalities in adult offspring. We examined involvement of IL-6 in stressinduced changes...
The purpose of the experiments was to examine the anxiety-related effects of d-amphetamine and nicotine, and the possible involvement of the endocannabinoid system. D-amphetamine (2 mg/kg, ip) was administered acutely or daily for 8 days. On the 9th day, mice were challenged with d-amphetamine (2 mg/kg, ip) or nicotine (0.1 mg/kg, sc), and were tested in the elevated plus maze. Additionally, a distinct...
Several studies have reported the anxiolytic-like effects of various nitric oxide synthase inhibitors in distinct animal models. However, in the context of anxiety, the possible involvement of cyclic GMP, believed to be one of the main targets of NO, remains obscure. Cyclic GMP is degraded by the specific phosphodiesterases in the brain. Therefore, we studied the effect of the selective phosphodiesterase...
