muscimol and Hypotension

muscimol has been researched along with Hypotension in 13 studies

Muscimol: A neurotoxic isoxazole isolated from species of AMANITA. It is obtained by decarboxylation of IBOTENIC ACID. Muscimol is a potent agonist of GABA-A RECEPTORS and is used mainly as an experimental tool in animal and tissue studies.
muscimol : A member of the class of isoxazoles that is 1,2-oxazol-3(2H)-one substituted by an aminomethyl group at position 5. It has been isolated from mushrooms of the genus Amanita.

Hypotension: Abnormally low BLOOD PRESSURE that can result in inadequate blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. Common symptom is DIZZINESS but greater negative impacts on the body occur when there is prolonged depravation of oxygen and nutrients.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We investigated the effects of bilateral injections of the GABA receptor agonists muscimol (GABA A) and baclofen (GABA B) into the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) on the bradycardia and hypotension induced by iv serotonin injections (5-HT, 2 microg/rat) in awake male Holtzman rats."3.73The bradycardic and hypotensive responses to serotonin are reduced by activation of GABAA receptors in the nucleus tractus solitarius of awake rats. ( Callera, JC; Colombari, E; De Luca, LA; Menani, JV, 2005)
"Plasma vasopressin (AVP) levels were measured at rest (mean arterial pressure 80-85 mmHg) and during hypotension (mean arterial pressure 38-45 mmHg) induced by ganglionic blockade (trimethaphan) in halothane-anaesthetized respirated rats with end-tidal pCO2 maintained at 34-40 mmHg."3.67Baroreceptor-independent medullary mechanism for release of vasopressin during hypotension in rats. ( Baertschi, AJ; Guyenet, PG; Hashemzadeh-Gargari, H, 1988)
"Intravenous injections of clonidine produce an initial transient increase in blood pressure followed by a long-lasting hypotension and bradycardia."3.67Ventrolateral medullary pressor area: site of hypotensive action of clonidine. ( Krieger, AJ; Punnen, S; Sapru, HN; Urbanski, R, 1987)
