This study evaluated the effects of intravitreal injections of 300 micrograms of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) on electroretinogram (ERG) amplitudes and implicit response times of adult pigmented rabbits. One eye was injected intravitreally with 300 micrograms 6-OHDA and 600 micrograms ascorbic acid in
The present study examined effects of selective antagonists of D-1 and D-2 dopamine receptors on the development of behavioral sensitization produced by repeated methamphetamine (MAP) administration. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups. Each group received a daily injection of sal
Positron emission tomography was used to examine the in vivo binding of [ 11 C]raclopride to D 2 -dopamine (DA) receptors in the striatum of two Cynomolgus monkeys after a single dose of reserpine (1 mg/kg, i.v.). A Scatchard procedure was repeated five times to follow D 2 receptor density and appar
