l~'etreatment of rats with p-chlorophenylalanine methyl ester (PCPA-ME) causes a normally non-effective dose of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) to disrupt bar-pressing at times when serotonin (5-HT) concentration is depleted. There does not appear to be any correlation between the initial, behaviorallyd
The serotonin agonist qnipazine maleate (1-10 mg/kg, IM) and the serotonin precursor l-5-hydroxytryptophan (5HTP, 930 mg/kg, IM) produced dose-dependent decreases in responding (lever-pressing) of squirrel monkeys maintained under a fixed-ratio 30 schedule of food presentation. The classical seroton
