    Abstract:
    Differential pulse voltammetry was used for 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) detection in the rat caudate (n. Cd) and Raphe Dorsalis (n. RD) nuclei, in chronic experimental conditions. In the anterior and ventral part of n. RD, large increases in the extracellular concentrations of 5-HIAA were reported during slow wave sleep (SWS) and paradoxical sleep (PS) whereas a decrease occurred during waking. These variations could reflect the dendritic release of serotonin. In n. Cd, opposite variations of the extracellular concentrations of 5-HIAA were observed i.e. increase during waking state and decrease during SWS and PS.
