  • Title: [Effect of lithium oxybutyrate on the serotonin and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid content in the brain of rabbits].
    Author: Saratikov AS, Fisanova LL, Zamoshchina TA, Sakharova SA.
    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1986 Mar; 101(3):312-5. PubMed ID: 2420392.
    Abstract:
    Single administration of lithium hydroxybutyrate (10 mg/kg) to rabbits decreased serotonin and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) content in the caudate nucleus. The drug administration for 8 days is accompanied by mediator accumulation in the cortex, caudate nucleus, tonsils, hypothalamus, thalamus, and midbrain with parallel reduction in 5-HIAA level in these structures. 15 days of lithium hydroxybutyrate administration lead to the increase of serotonin and 5-HIAA concentration, while 28 days of administration reduced the content of mediator and its metabolite.
