The mesopallidal dopamine system, which originates from the ventral tegmental area and projects to the ventral pallidum (VP), has been recently shown to play an important role in self-stimulation reward and cocaine reward. VP also receives a GABAergic projection from nucleus accumbens (NAS). The aim

Abstract
A new method for measuring the uptake of materials labeled with radioactive phosphorus (^32^P) in the brain of a freely moving rat is described. The rat of uptake in the brain of a single animal of ^32^Pβlabeled phosphate was compared to the uptake rate in the animal's blood or liver. A comparison was made between the uptake following an intravenous (IV) or an intraperitonel (IP) injection. The effect of convulsions caused by injections of metrazol on the kinetics of ^32^P uptake in the brain is described.

Although the neocortex has generally been considered resistant to the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP), we have recently shown that LTP can be reliably induced in the freely moving rat provided that the stimulation sessions are spaced and repeated. Here, we report that the induction of LTP
The ability of the perforant path/dentate granule cell synapse of the hippocampal formation to establish and maintain enhanced levels of synaptic transmission in response to tetanization (longterm potentiation, LTP) was investigated in freely moving rats at 15, 30, and 90 days of age.
