Activation of β3-adrenoceptor increases the number of readily releasable glutamatergic vesicle via activating Ca2+/calmodulin/MLCK/myosin II pathway in the prefrontal cortex of juvenile rats
Abstract It is well known that β3-adrenoceptor (β3-AR) in many brain structures including prefrontal cortex (PFC) is involved in stress-related behavioral changes. SR58611A, a brain-penetrant β3-AR subtypes agonist, is revealed to exhibit anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects. Whereas activati...
