The effect of amitriptyline (AMI), ethanol (ETOH), and ETOH followed by AMI on both general activity (open field) and motor performance (two rotorod tasks) was tested in reference to a saline-injected control. The combination (ETOH plus AMI) produced greater impairment on all three tasks than did ei
Ethanol, 7 g/kg, was given orally to mice. At various time intervals thereafter the animals received 3I-I-tyrosine and the net accumulation of all-noradrenaline and 3H-dopamine in the brain during 30 min was measured. In some of the experiments the animals were divided into two groups with different
