Striatal dopamine and its metabolites were studied in rats given lithium chloride in the diet. Results showed an increase in homovanillic acid and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid levels but no significant change in dopamine concentration after 3 weeks of lithium administration. There was no change in

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) may be utilized for the synthesis and regeneration of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH 4 ), which in turn is an essential cofactor for tyrosine hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of dopamine (DA). NADH has been reported to relieve some of the sympt
In vivo voltammetric measurements of striatal extracellular DOPAC concentrations and of striatal DA release in combination with post-mortem analysis of striatal catechols were performed in the rat to study the effects on the nigro-striatal neurons of a Chinese neuroleptic, ltetrahydropalmatine (/-TH
