Description

Previous studies have implicated human alpha-2-macroglobulin (alpha2M) as a potential regulator of neuronal development and function. Rat alpha-1-macroglobulin (alpha1M) and acute-phase alpha-2-macroglobulin (alpha2M) are murine homologues of human alpha2M. In this report, we tested the effect of intracranially infused serotonin-activated rat alpha1M (5HT-alpha1M) on the concentration of dopamine (DA) in the corpus striatum in vivo and the effect of
