    Notes: Summary Immunoreactive neuropeptide Y and dynorphin have been localized in the brain and pituitary gland of the platyfish, Xiphophorus maculatus, at different ages and stages of development from birth to sexual maturity. Immunoreactive neuropeptide Y was found in perikarya and tracts of the nucleus olfactoretinalis, telencephalon, ventral tegmentum and in the neurohypophysis and in the three regions of the adenohypophysis. Immunoreactive dynorphin was found in nerve tracts in the olfactory bulb and in cells of the pars intermedia and the rostral pars distalis of the pituitary gland.

    Notes: Summary The present study was aimed at clarifying to what extent the hypermotility induced by the uncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist MK-801 depends on dopamine (DA) D-1 compared to D-2 receptor tone. The D-1 receptor antagonist SCH 23390 was found to reduce locomotion to a greater extent in MK-801-treated than in vehicle-treated mice, whereas the reverse appeared to be the case for the DA D-2 receptor antagonist raclopride. In other words, MK-801-induced hyperactivity was more readily antagonized by SCH 23390 than by raclopride and, thus, DA D-1 receptors seem to be more important than D-2 receptors for MK-801-induced hyperactivity. These results are in line with our previous observation that MK-801 generally interacts synergistically with a DA D-1 but not with a D-2 receptor agonist in monoamine-depleted mice. In view of the possible role of deficient glutamatergic neurotransmission in schizophrenia, our findings underline the importance of investigating the efficacy of selective DA D-1 antagonists in this disorder.
