Administration of the GABA(A )receptor antagonist picrotoxin into rat supramammillary nucleus induces c-Fos in reward-related brain structures. Supramammillary picrotoxin and c-Fos expression

BACKGROUND: Picrotoxin blocks GABA(A )receptors, whose activation typically inhibits neuronal firing activity. We recently found that rats learn to selectively self-administer picrotoxin or bicuculline, another GABA(A )receptor antagonist, into the supramammillary nucleus (SuM), a posterior hypothal...
