The effects of atropine (5 mg/kg), baclofen (10 mg/kg), gamma-hydroxybutyrate (300 mg/kg), gamma-butyrolactone (100 mg/kg) and muscimol (1 mg/kg) upon the action of 2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (APV; an antagonist at receptors for N-methyl-D-aspartate) on the threshold current for seizures induced by electroshock, were studied in mice.

Development of anti-obesity agents: drugs that target neuropeptide and neurotransmitter systems
Obesity results from an imbalance of energy intake and energy expenditure. While the prevalence of obesity is increasing and the negative impact on public health is being recognized, highly effective and safe therapy for obesity is not yet available.This review summarizes the current state of the art in the late-stage development area of anti-obesity ...

The injection into the 3rd ventricle of betha-nechol, carbachol and noradrenaline provoked the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) in the hydrated male rat, as indicated by a decrease in urine flow and free-water clearance, with an increased urinary electrolyte concentration, osmolality and conductivity.

1. The comparative effects of verapamil and D-600, on isometric contractions produced by noradrenaline, acetylcholine, phenylephrine, clonidine, carbachol and high potassium, were studied in rat isolated seminal vesicle. 2. The aim was to see if verapamil and D-600 differed, in their selectivity, of blocking calcium, channels, and hence inhibition of ...

Hepatic tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) is one of the rate-limiting enzymes in tryptophan catabolism and plays an important role in regulating the physiological flux of tryptophan into relevant metabolic pathways. In this study, we determined the effect of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, tolmetin and sulindac, on rat liver TDO activity and

One of the phasic phenomena of REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, the ponto-geniculo-occipital (PGO) waves, are induced in cats by either depleting brain monoamines with the benzoquinolizine derivative Ro 4-1284 or inhibiting the synthesis of 5-hydroxy-tryptamine (5-HT) by p-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA). The effects of the most important psychotropic agents
