| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Unilateral microinjection of GABA into the rostral parapyramidal region (PPy) of the medulla oblongata elicited a prompt increase in tail skin temperature (Ts) and decreases in the body core temperature, and oxygen consumption rate in urethane-chloralose-anesthetized, neuromuscularly blocked, artificially ventilated rats. Next, when the GABA receptor blocker bicuculline methiodide (BMI) was microinjected bilaterally into the PPy, no direct effect on Ts was seen. However, pretreatment of the PPy with BMI, but not vehicle saline, greatly attenuated the hypothermic responses evoked by hypoxic (10%O2-90%N2, 5 min) ventilation, by bilateral microinjections of glutamate into the lateral preoptic area, or by systemic administration of 2-deoxy-d-glucose, an inhibitor of glucose utilization. The results suggest that hypothermia induced by above mentioned situations was mediated, at least in part, by the activation of GABA receptors in the PPy.
