The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is involved in cognitive functions such as working memory. Astrocytic cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CB1R) induces cytosolic calcium (Ca2+) concentration changes with an impact on neuronal function. mPFC astrocytes also express adenosine A1 and A2A receptors (A1R, A2AR), being unknown the crosstalk between CB1R and adenosine receptors in these cells. We show here that a further...

Este trabalho teve como objetivo o estudo da reprodução e descrição de técnica para colheita digital de imagens durante a marcha de ratos e determinação do índice Funcional do Ciático (IFC), através de uma passarela de vidro e obtenção de imagens com uma câmera digital. Após lesão por estrangulamento controlado de nervo ciático, na extensão de 3mm, durante 30 segundos, utilizando pinça hemostática, um grupo de ...
The finding of lymphomas in the salivary glands is uncommon. Moreover, the diagnosis of Hodgkin´s lymphoma from the finding of an initial swelling that is increasingly growing in the parotid region is rare. The clinical examination, the FNA or the radiology investigations including CT scan, will hardly help in understanding the nature of the disease. Because of this, lymphoma must be taken into account in the d...
By analyzing the functional role of adenosine receptor heteromers, we review a series of new concepts that should modify our classical views of neurotransmission in the central nervous system (CNS). Neurotransmitter receptors cannot be considered as single functional units anymore. Heteromerization of neurotransmitter receptors confers functional entities that possess different biochemical characteristics with ...
