Involvement of the central serotoninergic system in the changes of leu-enkephalin level in discrete rat brain areas.

Neuropeptides 1986 K Kmieciak-Kołada, J Kowalski

The effects of acute and chronic treatment with LSD and acute treatment with mescaline, m-CPP, citalopram and fenfluramine on leu-enkephalin (LENK) content in rat brain were examined. The acute LSD treatment was found to decrease and chronic treatment to increase the LENK content in the frontal cortex. In the thalamus with hypothalamus the LENK level fell after the administration of LSD,...

Potentiation of motoneurone excitability by combined administration of 5-HT agonist and TRH analogue.

Neuropeptides June 1, 1985 K A Clarke, A J Parker, G C Stirk 39 citations

Motoneurone field potentials have been recorded from the lumbar region of the spinal cord, to antidromic stimulation of a ventral root, in rats anaesthetised with urethane. Injection of the thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) analogue RX77368 (1mg/kg) plus the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor agonist 5-methoxy-N, N-dimethyl-tryptamine (5MeODMT 0.4mg/kg) resulted in a potentiation of the...
