The secretion of growth hormone (GH) is regulated through a complex neuroendocrine
control system, especially by the functional interplay of two hypothalamic hypophysiotropic …

Gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) is a catabolite in brain of γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) and is
also found in nonneuronal tissues. It is present in the brain at about one thousandth of the …

Abstract Racemic, d, 1-baclofen, and l-baclofen depressed the patellar, flexor, linguo-
mandibular (0.1− 30 mg/kg iv) and the H-reflex (1− 3 mg/kg iv) in a dose-dependent fashion …

The present in vivo microdialysis study demonstrated that the subcutaneous injection of
modafinil (diphenyl-methyl-sulfinyl-2-acetamide) in doses of 30–300 mg/kg dose …

Glutamate decarboxylase activity, a specific marker for γ-aminobutyrate-containing neurons,
has been analysed in microdissected samples from rat mesencephalon following unilateral …

We have investigated the interaction between opioid peptides and dopaminergic A10 (DA-
A10) neurones in the ventral tegmental area (VTA). The behavioural consequences of VTA …

The discovery of different GABA receptor subtypes has stimulated research relating this
neurotransmitter to a variety of behavioral functions and clinical disorders. The development …

Extracellular recordings were obtained from single neurons in the ventral tegmental area of
rats anesthetized with urethane. It was found that the area appeared to contain two groups of …

Summary Ethanol (2.4 g/kg) was given intraperitoneally to mice and was found to cause a
marked increase in spontaneous locomotor activity. When mice were pretreated with low …

In this review the effects of exogenously administered TRH on behavior and other
neuronally mediated phenomena in experimental animals are documented. A more cursory …
