Relevance of endogenous 3α-reduced neurosteroids to depression and antidepressant action

Agonist and antagonist actions of yohimb

Agonist and antagonist actions of yohimbine as compared to fluparoxan at α2-adrenergic receptors (AR)s, serotonin (5-HT)1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D and dopamine D2 and D3 receptors. Significance for the modulation of frontocortical monoaminergic transmission and depressive states

Herein, we evaluate the interaction of the ␣ 2 -AR antagonist, yohimbine, as compared to fluparoxan, at multiple monoaminergic receptors and examine their roles in the modulation of adrenergic, dopaminergic and serotonergic transmission in freelymoving rats. Yohimbine displays marked affinity at hum
