[Effect of nootropic drugs on the dopamine release and dopamine uptake in structures of the rat striatum]. 1982

C Wustmann, and E Rudolph, and U Schwipper, and B Ranacher, and H D Fischer, and J Schmidt

Nootropics increase the overflow of dopamine from rat striatum slices in a concentration dependent manner, but without relation to their clinical effectiveness. The influence of a nootropic drugs and of amphetamine on the stimulus induced dopamine release points to a relationship between nootropic and nooanaleptic activity, on the one hand, and transmitter release, on the other. Dopamine re-uptake is not altered by nootropics like piracetam.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002504 Meclofenoxate An ester of DIMETHYLAMINOETHANOL and para-chlorophenoxyacetic acid. Centrophenoxine,Atsefen,Cerutil,Cetrexin,Helfergin,Meclofenoxate Hydrochloride
D004088 Dihydroergotoxine A mixture of three different hydrogenated derivatives of ERGOTAMINE: DIHYDROERGOCORNINE; DIHYDROERGOCRISTINE; and DIHYDROERGOCRYPTINE. Dihydroergotoxine has been proposed to be a neuroprotective agent and a nootropic agent. The mechanism of its therapeutic actions is not clear, but it can act as an alpha-adrenergic antagonist and a dopamine agonist. The methanesulfonate salts of this mixture of alkaloids are called ERGOLOID MESYLATES.

D004298 Dopamine One of the catecholamine NEUROTRANSMITTERS in the brain. It is derived from TYROSINE and is the precursor to NOREPINEPHRINE and EPINEPHRINE. Dopamine is a major transmitter in the extrapyramidal system of the brain, and important in regulating movement. A family of receptors (RECEPTORS, DOPAMINE) mediate its action.
