## Abstract A morphometric study of the synapses on dendritic shafts and spines was performed in the rat caudate nucleus and the CAI area of the hippocampus under chronic haloperidol treatment. In the nucleus caudatus, the synaptic density of dendritic shafts increased by 83% and those on spines by
Recent studies indicate that an increase in serotonergic (5-HT) activity in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) produces an increase in dopamine (DA) release, providing a possible mechanism for the involvement of DA in the therapeutic action of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants.
