Anorectic effects of apomorphine were studied in a microstructural analysis paradigm. Systemic apomorphine reduced food intake by reducing both the rate of eating and the time spent eating. Peripheral administration of sulpiride reversed the apomorphine effect on both eating rate and eating time but

Apomorphine-induced limb ticks in cats have been ascribed to a central dopamino-mimetic action of the drug. In these experiments we investigated the role of receptors located outside the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in the induction of limb ticking. Domperidone, a dopamine-receptor blocker which does n
The caudate nucleus or the tuberculum olfactorium of the rat was lesioned by bilateral stereotaxic injection of 6-hydroxydopamine. The degree of dopamine depletion was assessed by a sensitive regional dopamine assay and revealed severe depletions in the lesioned areas. The locomotor response to a lo
