We used genetically heterogeneous HS mice to investigate the effects of drugs that alter brain concentrations of serotonin on cocaine-induced convulsions and lethality. The racemer of fenfluramine, which increases synaptic serotonin, was…

One group of heterogeneously bred HS mice was assigned to test coadministration of the selective D1 antagonist SCH 23390 with a dose of cocaine (95 mg/kg) that was observed to produce 80% lethality, whereas a second group was tested by cotreatment…

We tested the hypothesis that cocaine-induced impairment of left ventricular function results in cardiogenic pulmonary edema. Mongrel dogs, anesthetized with alpha-chloralose, were injected with two doses of cocaine (5 mg/kg iv) 27 min apart. Cocaine…

Using light, transmission (TEM) and scanning (SEM) electron microscopy, cocaine-induced defects were observed in hamster atria. Compared with controls, the treated atria from neonates show endocardial and myocardial damages as the atrial walls…
