In a previous study, we occasionally found that the rat given naloxone in the preoptic region develops behavioral seizures. In view of knowledge that the forebrain including the medial septal nucleus provides cholinergic projections to the hippocampal formation, the present study examined the effects of naloxone injected into the medial septal nucleus on the local blood flow in the hippocampus.
