Brack K E, Lovick T A
Abstract excerpt
Extracellular recordings were made from output neurons in the dorsal half of the periaqueductal gray matter (dPAG) in urethane-anesthetized female Wistar rats. All the neurons were quiescent. A basal level of firing was therefore induced by continuous iontophoretic application of D,L-homocysteic acid (DLH). In the presence of the GABA(A) receptor antagonist bicuculline methiodide (BIC 0-30 nA) the DLH-induced...
