We have previously shown that 6 weeks of intermittent high-fat diet (Int-HFD) pre-exposure
significantly reduced alcohol drinking in rats, providing preliminary evidence of the …

The involvement of striatal somatostatin receptors (sst 1, sst 2 and sst 4) in locomotor activity
was investigated. Male Sprague–Dawley rats, 280–350 g, received in the striatum bilateral …

The aim of the present study was to determine the possible role of somatostatin as a
modulator of dopamine release in rat retina. Basal release of dopamine, and how this is …

Dysfunction of the cortico-basal circuitry–including its primary input nucleus, the striatum–
contributes to neuropsychiatric disorders, including autism and Tourette Syndrome (TS) …

purpose. To detect mRNAs for somatostatin (somatotropin release-inhibiting factor [SRIF])
receptor subtypes 1 to 5 (sst 1 through sst 5) in rabbit retinas by reverse transcription …

The aim of the present study was to examine the function of the somatostatin receptor (sst1)
in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) of the basal ganglia. Radioligand binding studies were …

Somatostatin (SST) is a peptide synthesized and released by a class of neostriatal local
GABAergic interneurons, which, to some extent, are in charge of the feedforward inhibitory …

The modulation of striatal cholinergic neurons by somatostatin (SOM) was studied by
measuring the release of acetylcholine (ACh) in the striatum of freely moving rats. The …

Application of somatostatin to the striatum of the anaesthetized rat has previously been
shown to elicit large increases in extracellular levels of dopamine and GABA via a glutamate …

The role of somatostatin receptors in the nucleus accumbens shell in rat turning behaviour
was studied. Unilateral injection of neither the somatostatin receptor agonist somatostatin …
