In vitro superfusion and in vivo electrochemistry were used to investigate the role of estrogen in modulatings MPP+-induced dopamine output in the corpus striatum and nucleus accumbens of ovariectomized female rats. For in vitro superfusion…
Tamoxifen (10 pg/ml) was infused directly into superfused striatal tissue fragments of ovariectomized rats for a 50 min period. Immediately following the termination of tamoxifen there was a significant increase in dopamine output compared with…
In this report we examined the effect of tamoxifen upon the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system. Ovariectomized mice were subjected to one of the following treatments: two subcutaneous injections administered on successive days of the sesame oil…
Treatment with methamphetamine (MA - 20 mg/kgx4 i.p. at 2-h intervals) or its vehicle at 7 days prior to tests of running time to exhaustion were evaluated in 60-day-old CD-1 male mice. Pre-treatment running times were not significantly different…
