  1. ncbi Interleukin-6 increases sensitivity to the locomotor-stimulating effects of amphetamine in rats
    S Zalcman
    Center for Studies in Behavioral Neurobiology, Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    Brain Res 847:276-83. 1999
    ..The fact that IL-6 caused a lasting change in responsiveness to amphetamine implies a mechanism by which immunogenic stimuli can alter brain circuitry, changing its sensitivity to seemingly unrelated subsequent stimuli or events...
  2. ncbi Interleukin-2 potentiates novelty- and GBR 12909-induced exploratory activity
    S S Zalcman
    Department of Psychiatry and Rutgers UMDNJ Integrative Neuroscience Program, UMD New Jersey Medical School, Medical Science Building, E 503, 185 S Orange Ave, Newark, NJ 07103 2714, USA
    Brain Res 899:1-9. 2001
    ..847 (1999) 276-283), it is suggested that cytokines can influence the development of behavioral abnormalities that are characteristic of aberrant mesolimbic dopamine activity via sensitization-like processes...
  3. ncbi Interleukin-2-induced increases in climbing behavior: inhibition by dopamine D-1 and D-2 receptor antagonists
    Steven S Zalcman
    UMD New Jersey Medical School, Department of Psychiatry and Rutgers UMDNJ Integrative Neuroscience Program, Newark, NJ 07103, USA
    Brain Res 944:157-64. 2002
    ..These findings could shed light on the mechanisms by which IL-2 increases vulnerability to psychiatric abnormalities associated with aberrations in central dopaminergic processes...
  4. ncbi The neurobiology of aggression and rage: role of cytokines
    Steven S Zalcman
    Department of Psychiatry, UMDNJ New Jersey Medical School, Newark, NJ 07103, USA
    Brain Behav Immun 20:507-14. 2006
    ..Present research is designed to further delineate the roles of cytokines in aggressive behavior and to begin to unravel the possible signaling pathways involved this process...
  5. ncbi Kainate-activated currents in the ventral tegmental area of neonatal rats are modulated by interleukin-2
    Jiang Hong Ye
    Department of Anesthesiology, New Jersey Medical School UMDNJ, Newark, NJ 07103 2714, USA
    Brain Res 1049:227-33. 2005
    ..IL-2 might thus be required for normal cell development in the mesolimbic and mesostriatal systems...

    Suresh Bhatt
    Department of Neurology and Neurosciences, New Jersey Medical School, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, 185 South Orange Avenue, Newark, NJ 07103, USA
    Brain Behav Immun 22:224-33. 2008
    ..The present study demonstrates that IL-beta in the dorsal PAG, similar to the medial hypothalamus, potentiates defensive rage behavior and is mediated through a 5-HT(2C) receptor mechanism...
  7. ncbi Permeability of the mouse blood-brain barrier to murine interleukin-2: predominance of a saturable efflux system
    William A Banks
    Division of Geriatrics, Department of Internal Medicine, GRECC, Veterans Affairs Medical Center St Louis and Saint Louis University School of Medicine, 915 N Grand Blvd, St Louis, MO 63106, USA
    Brain Behav Immun 18:434-42. 2004
    ..This is the first description of a saturable CNS-to-blood efflux system for a cytokine. We postulate that this efflux system may protect the brain from circulating IL-2...
