Previous results indicate that agents which either decreases synthesis or block postsynaptic dopamine receptors will attenuate the discriminative stimulus produced by d-amphetamine. CGS 10746B has been reported to decrease dopamine release without…
The discriminative stimulus properties of cocaine are thought to be mediated by dopaminergic mechanisms that may be modulated by calcium ion influx and/or interact with 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) receptors. To test these possibilities, rats were…
CGS 10746B is an imidazole-derivative related to the atypical antipsychotic clozapine which produces a decrease in dopamine release without altering dopamine metabolism or occupying D2 receptors. Rats were trained on an appetitively-motivated,…
