摘要
Ketamine induces marked c-fos expression in the posterior cingulate and retrosplenial cortices (PC/RS). We investigated whether NMDA and/or sigma receptors were involved in the c-Fos expression. The number of Fos-LI positive boutons in NMDA receptor knockout mice was significantly lower than that in wild-type mice. Rimcazole but not haloperidol significantly suppressed the c-Fos expression. The results indicate that the ketamine-induced c-Fos expression is mediated not only via NMDA receptors but also via sigma receptors. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
