    Notes: Abstract: The effect of different psychotropic drugs on the rate of DOPA accumulation after administration of a decarboxylase inhibitor (NSD 1015) was compared in the substantia nigra (SN) and caudate nucleus (CN) by a new radioenzymatic method. Inhibition of monoamine oxidase with pargyline or stimulation of dopamine (DA) receptors with apomorphine, N-n-propyl-norapomorphine or d-amphetamine reduced DOPA formation in the CN and SN to the same extent. Vice versa, both inhibition of DA receptors with haloperidol or (-)sulpiride and depletion of DA concentration with reserpine enhanced DOPA formation to a greater extent in the CN than in the SN. Apomorphine antagonized not only the effect of haloperidol and (-)sulpiride, but also, and even more effectively, that of reserpine. The results indicate that DA synthesis in the SN is controlled by both end-product inhibition and DA receptor-mediated mechanisms.

    Oxytocin-induced penile erection and yawning in male rats: effect of neonatal monosodium glutamate and hypophysectomy (1989)

    Notes: Abstract Penile erection and yawning induced by the intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of oxytocin (10–1000 ng) was studied in hypophysectomized rats and in rats neonatally treated with monosodium glutamate (MSG), a treatment that depletes hypothalamic opiomelanocorticotropinderived peptides without altering their pituitary and circulating concentration. Oxytocin effect was strongly reduced by hypophysectomy, but not by neonatal MSG. Testosterone replacement (50 μ/kg/day for 23 days) partially reversed the effect of hypophysectomy on penile erection, but not on yawning. The present results suggest that oxytocin does not induce penile erection and yawning by releasing an ACTH-derived peptide from hypothalamic opiomelanotropinergic neurons, and that the pituitary gland exerts a permissive role on the expression of the above behavioural responses induced by oxytocin.

    Repeated electroconvulsive shock prevents the sedative effect of small doses of apomorphine (1981)
    Springer
    Psychopharmacology 73 (1981), S. 194-196

    Notes: Abstract Repeated electroconvulsive shock (ECS) (one shock daily for 8 days), but not single ECS, eliminates the sedative response to small doses of apomorphine (25–100 μg/kg) and potentiates the stimulant response to high doses (200 μg/kg) of the drug in rats. This effect is observed 1 and 4 days after the last ECS. However, repeated ECS does not prevent the inhibitory effect of apomorphine on dopamine (DA) synthesis. The results suggest that repeated ECS may lead to the development of subsensitivity in DA receptors that mediate sedation and that these receptors are differentiated from those controlling DA synthesis.
