Metabotropic glutamate receptor mediated synaptic plasticity in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis as a target for stress, anxiety and addiction disorders
(2006-01-20)
The importance of integration of information from neurocircuits innervating the reward circuitry is becoming increasingly recognized. For instance, the roles of stress/anxiety pathways in modulating specific effects of ...
Stress- and Drug-Dependent Regulation of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors in the Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis
(2011-04-15)
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are important modulators of excitatory transmission throughout the central nervous system, and have been implicated in a variety of neurological disorders. This work focuses ...
Characterization of the Function and Localization of the Alpha2A-Adrenergic Receptor in the Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis
(2009-06-15)
The bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) is a region of the brain critical in mediating behavioral and physiological responses to stress and anxiety. Stress is a major cause of relapse for drug addicts attempting ...
