Animals were pretreated with 6-OHDA or ascorbate vehicle injected into the nucleus accumbens and tested 10 days later for excessive grooming induced by intracerebroventricular injection of ACTH1-24. The animals pretreated with 6-OHDA showed a significant decrease in excessive grooming produced by the neuropeptide and this reduction was seen only in the last 30 minutes of a 60-min test session. The results suggest an interaction of ACTH with dopamine systems on the onset and maintenance of excessive grooming.
