  • Title: [Effect of carbidine on dopamine turnover in the rat corpus striatum].
    Author: Malikova LA, Arefolov VA.
    Journal: Farmakol Toksikol; 1980; 43(3):310-3. PubMed ID: 6108865.
    Abstract:
    It has been shown that carbidine increases the level of homovanillic acid (HVA) in the corpus striatum of the rat brain. The changes in HVA level allowed forming a judgement on dopamine turnover. By the intensity of this effect, carbidine proved inferior to typical neuroleptics--triphtazine and ftorfenazin. The antidepressant ftoracizin did not alter HVA level. Carbidine ranks between neuroleptics and antidepressants in terms of the effect on dopamine turnover.
