## Abstract In this study, we examined the interaction of 5βHT~1A~ and 5βHT~2A~ receptors in the rat medial prefrontal cortex (mPFc) using the techniques of extracellular single unit recording and microiontophoresis. The iontophoresis of the selective 5βHT~1A~ receptor agonist (Β±)β8βhydroxyβ2β(diβn
Since its discovery 50 years ago, the role of the indoleamine 5-HT (5-hydroxytryptamine; serotonin) in the pathogenesis of depression and in the mechanism of action of antidepressant drugs has been the subject of considerable research. Advances in molecular biology and radioligand techniques have le
We evaluated the impact of conditioned stress on outflow of dopamine in the rat prefrontal cortex. Exposure of rats to a n environment associated with aversive stimuli-foot shock enhanced outflow of dopamine in a similar way as seen during the conditioning session when foot shocks were applied. Diaz
