    Notes: Abstract Intraventricular injection of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine, selective destruction of descending serotoninergic neurons by 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine or electrolytic and chemical lesions of the nucleus raphe dorsalis did not affect the electroconvulsive threshold in rats. No effect was observed after the systemic administration of drugs known to increase central serotonin transmission, such as quipazine, m-chlorophenylpiperazine, and moderate doses of d-fenfluramine, whereas p-chlorophenylalanine, an inhibitor of serotonin synthesis, decreased seizure susceptibility. The anticonvulsant activity of carbamazepine was not modified in animals with the same experimental lesions. The results, in relation to the high selectivity of the experimental procedures employed to deplete brain and spinal cord serotonin, do not bear out any involvement of serotonin in the tonic component of electrically induced convulsions or in the action of carbamazepine.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of long-term isolation of young adult male rats on the analgesic effects of morphine were investigated. Isolated rats developed altered patterns of behavior, including muricidal behavior in some animals. Analgesic activity of morphine was assessed with both the tail compression and the hot plate methods. The results indicate that chronically isolated rats, whether developing muricidal behavior or not, show no alteration in either pain thresholds or in their response to morphine-induced analgesia.

    Notes: Abstract Although the effects of differential housing, particularly isolation, on the action of several classes of pharmacological agents have been studied, little attention has been given to this factor in regard to narcotics. The present study involves the effects of long-term social isolation on dependence to morphine produced by pellet implants in rats. When abstinence was precipitated with naloxone, isolated rats demonstrated less jumping and less diarrhea than grouped rats. No differences were found in other signs. In addition, the differences were seen both in isolates developing muricidal behavior and those not developing this behavioral pattern.

    Notes: Abstract Quipazine, a serotonin receptor stimulant, inhibited the response of rats to painful stimuli in two methods currently used to measure antinociception in these animals: the hot plate and tail compression test. The antinociceptive action was observed with doses ranging from 5 to 20 mg/kg i.p. according to the test situation. The effect was significantly antagonized by a pretreatment with methergoline, a potent serotonin antagonist. An electrolytic lesion placed in the nucleus raphe medianus, which produced a marked decrease of serotonin in the forebrain did not, or only slightly, affected the effect of quipazine, depending on the method used to measure antinociception. It is suggested that quipazine can produce antinociceptive action in rats by interacting with a serotonergic mechanism. The action appears to be due mainly to a direct action on postsynaptic serotonin receptors, although a presynaptic component can also contribute to the effect of quipazine.

    Notes: Summary Meta-chlorophenylpiperazine inhibited serotonin and noradrenaline uptake by synaptosomes to the same extent with IC50 of 1.3×10−6 M and 5.8×10−6 M respectively. Dopamine uptake was lesss affected by meta-chlorophenylpiperazine (IC50 of 2.2×10−5 M). Unlike d-amphetamine and d-fenfluramine, the drug did not significantly increase monoamine release in synaptosomal preparations. On the other hand, metachlorophenylpiperazine showed an IC50 of 620 nM in displacing 3H-5HT binding to brain membranes. Meta-chlorophenylpiperazine produced a dose-dependent reduction of food intake and this effect was prevented by a pretreatment with methergoline, a serotonin antagonist. The effect of metachlorophenylpiperazine was not modified by an intraventricular injection of 6-hydroxydopamine, electrolytic lesions of nucleus medianus raphe or ventral noradrenergic bundle, nor by a pretreatment with penfluridol, propranolol or phentolamine. The data suggest that the decrease of food intake induced by metachlorophenylpiperazine depends on its ability to act as a serotonin agonist in the brain. The specificity of the effects on serotonin suggests that this compound could prove an important tool for studies aimed at elucidating the functional role of serotonin in the central nervous system.
