Apomorphine-induced yawning was studied in male rats with bilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesions of the substantia nigra. Apomorphine 10, 20 and 50 lag/kg SC induced dose-dependent yawning in unoperated controls and animals with sham lesions. In the lesioned animals (in which the mean striatal dopamine

Intraventricular injection of 2 doses of 300 tzg of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) into rats induced an increased reactivity to exogenous (non-painful) stimuli. This increased irritability lasted more than 4 months (the longest period studied) and consisted of crying, hissing, urination, defecation, sta
An antisense oligonucleotide strategy was employed to specifically deplete postsynaptic striatal D 2 receptors in order to determine the possible role of presynaptic D 2 autoreceptors in mediating behavioral responses induced by low doses of apomorphine. A phosphorothioate-modified antisense oligonu
In order to define the role of dopamine receptors in the contralateral rotational behavior induced by caffeine in unilaterally 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned rats, we evaluated the influence of previous exposure (priming) to dopamine receptor agonists and the effect of dopamine receptor blockade on the
In rats with a unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesion of the dopaminergic nigro-striatal pathway, striatal D,-receptor-stimulated c-fos expression and turning behavior are positively modulated by D, receptor stimulation and by blockade of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) or muscarinic receptors. Combined D1
