Neostriatum neuronal TRPV

Several lines of evidence have demonstrated that the cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CBFluorescent neural tract tracers were deposited in either CPu or in SNpr. Wistar rats received injection of vehicle, anandamide (AEA), either at low (50 pmol) or high (100 pmol) concentrations in CPu followed by bicuculline microinjections in dlSC.Connections between CPu, the SNpr and dlSC were demonstrated. The GABAThese findings suggest that while pre-synaptic CB1-signalling subserves an indirect facilitatory effect of AEA on striato-nigral pathways causing panicolytic-like responses through midbrain tectum enhanced activity, post-synaptic TRPV
