Effects of intrapallidal drugs on hyperactivity induced by nucleus accumbens dopamine receptor stimulation. 1982

P Slater, and D A Longman, and S L Dickinson

The effect of manipulating globus pallidus (GP) transmitters on the locomotor hyperactivity induced by administration of the dopamine agonist ADTN in the nucleus accumbens was investigated in rats with permanent intracerebral cannulae. Hyperactivity was antagonized by the GABA agonists muscimol and baclofen and the GABA antagonist bicuculline. Atropine, ADTN and ethylketazocine in GP had no effects on the response. Both morphine and the 5-HT agonist 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine prevented the hyperactivity. The findings emphasize the role of GP GABA in the NA-induced hyperactivity and provide information about the functions of some other GP transmitters.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009043	Motor Activity	Body movements of a human or an animal as a behavioral phenomenon.	Activities, Motor,Activity, Motor,Motor Activities
D009638	Norepinephrine	Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.
