    Notes: Abstract Haloperidol (0.08 mg/kg) or fentanyl (0.16 mg/kg) injected subcutaneously suppressed bar-pressing for brain-stimulation in rats, implanted with electrodes in the lateral hypothalamic area of the medial forebrain bundle. Increasing doses: 0.04, 0.16, 0.63 and 2.50 mg/kg of the central anticholinergic dexetimide gradually antagonized the haloperidol effects. The highest dose of dexetimide did not reduce the fentanyl-induced inhibition. The results, together with a literature survey on the anticholinergic effects on neuroleptic-induced catalepsy and inhibition of avoidance behavior, are related to biochemical findings and clinical effects.

    Notes: Summary Acute exposure of mice to hypobaric hypoxia, or reduced oxygen at normal pressure, markedly potentiated barbiturate-induced hypnosis. The mice showed lower body concentration of pentobarbital on awakening and reduced rate of pentobarbital disappearance from the body during exposure to the hypoxic environment. These data suggest that acute exposure to hypoxia depresses in vivo metabolism of pentobarbital and enhances CNS sensitivity to the barbiturates.

    Notes: Abstract Male and female mice deprived of social interactions showed increased resistance to hexobarbital narcosis. However, only the isolated males developed aggressiveness. The more rapid disappearance of hexobarbital from the whole body of isolated mice and the higher drug concentration at awakening in these animals indicate enhanced hepatic degradation with a concomitant increase in CNS excitability. Development of aggressiveness in isolated male mice did not correlate temporally with the reduced response to hexobarbital. These data suggest that alterations in barbiturate sensitivity and development of aggressiveness following social deprivation have different biological bases.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of pilocarpine, atropine and dexetimide were studied on the occurrence and intensity of morphine-withdrawal signs observed after cessation of chronic morphine injections. Pilocarpine was effective in reducing both ‘wet-dog’ like body shakes and aggression but it increased diarrhea and weight loss. Pretreatment with atropine blocked all of the effects of pilocarpine on withdrawal signs. Methylscopolamine pretreatment blocked only diarrhea. The administration of atropine or dexetimide produced no significant effect on any of the withdrawal signs. These results indicate a role for central cholinergic mechanism in narcotic withdrawal.
