Title: Decreased disrupting effect of neuroleptics on conditioned avoidance in rats with lesions in the mid-brain raphe nuclei. Author: Kostowski W, Płaźnik A. Journal: Physiol Behav; 1982 Oct; 29(4):621-6. PubMed ID: 6129668. Abstract: The present study evaluated the effects of some neuroleptics (Chlorpromazine, haloperidol, spiroperidol) on general activity and avoidance behavior (one-way and two-way) in rats with lesions in the midbrain raphe nuclei (the nucleus raphe medianus and nucleus raphe dorsalis). Animals with lesions showed reduced response to neuroleptics when compared with sham-operated animals. The resistance of raphe-lesioned rats to neuroleptics is discussed on the basis of possible interaction between catecholamine and serotonin brain neurons.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
