...Roberto Frussa-Filho; Maria do Carmo Monteiro; Carla G.S. Soares; Rosane Cury Décio We determined the effect of 13 days of treatment with 2.0 mg/kg haloperidol, 4.0 mg/kg bromocriptine or 2.0 mg/kg amphetamine on the number of tumor cells of mice bearing Ehrlich ascites carcinoma. The dopaminergic...

... and an inhibition of the sympathetic efferent mechanisms. On the other hand, following intraperitoneal injection of Ge-132, increased grooming and head swaying (as shown by an enhancement in fine movements monitored by an electronic activity counter) were provoked. Furthermore, the amphetamine-induced enhancement...

...C.F. Tsai; M.T. Lin In the presented studies, both the spontaneous motor activity and the locomotor responses to amphetamine challenge were assessed in normotensive rats and in hypertensive rats. As compared to their appropriate controls, both experimentally (either renal or deoxycorticosterone...

... activity and a reduced sensitivity of locomotor stimulant responses to amphetamine administration. However, these portacaval-shunted animals displayed same thermoregulatory responses to various ambient temperatures as those of normal unoperated or sham-operated animals. Biochemical examination revealed...

... effect was tested. Both early (30 min) and late (24 h) analgesic effects of cathinone were prevented by reserpine or p -chlorophenylalanine, which deplete catecholamines or serotonin, respectively, and by nomifensine, which prevents neuronal uptake of biogenic amines and amphetamines. The same inhibitory...

...L.R. Shian; M.H. Wu; M.T. Lin; L.T. Ho To determine whether the locomotor stimulant and the anorexic actions of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and amphetamine were mediated through the hypothalamic nuclei, rats were infused with either TRH or amphetamine through previously implanted...

...Glenn S. Takimoto; Bahman A. Amiri; Arthur K. Cho The effects of different loading procedures on norepinephrine- 3 H (NE- 3 H) efflux induced by a structurally analogous group of indirectly acting sympathomimetic amines was examined in rabbit vas deferens. (+)-Amphetamine was ineffective...

...H.-H. Frey Hyperthermia was elicited in rats by the subcutaneous injection of 4 mg/kg (+)-amphetamine, 4 mg/kg (+)-p-chloroamphetamine, or 8 mg/kg fenfluramine. This hyperthermia could be abolished by oral pretreatment with 300 mg/kg p-chlorophenylalanine. Cyproheptadine, at a dose of 0.05 mg/kg...

...W. Buczko; J. Moniuszko-Jakoniuk Fibrinogen degradation products (FDP) from bovine fibrinogen were obtained in vitro by trypsin digestion for 3 and 120 min, respectively. FDP-120 min applied i.p. and i.v.c. stimulated the CNS, while FDP-3 min did not. The FDP increased the potency of amphetamine...

...Andrew R. Hoffman; B.V. Rama Sastry; Julius Axelrod Amphetamine is a sympathomimetic and psychotropic drug which is extensively metabolized in liver and in brain. One of its major metabolites, p-hydroxyamphetamine, is accumulated by cortical and striatal synaptosomes. In order to learn whether p...

...Ismail H. Ulus; Burhan K. Kiran; Şerafettin Özkurt The effect of amphetamine on the body temperature was studied in 6-hy-droxydopamine and pimozide pretreated rats. Amphetamine alone (1, 2.5 and 5 mg/kg) produced a fairly dose-dependent increase in body temperature. The effect was almost totally...

...J. Moniuszko-Jakoniuk; M. Kościelak; K. Wiśniewski The effects of kinins on the central action of amphetamine were investigated. It was found that bradykinin or activation of the kinin-forming system under the influence of kallikrein decreases the psychostimulatory effects of amphetamine given...

...G. Zetler; R. Thörner The anticataleptic activity of amphetamine, phenmetrazine, cocaine, apomorphine, yohimbine, and L-dopa wasdetermined in mice. Cataleptic states were produced using haloperidol, trifluoperazine, pilocarpine, nicotine, paraoxon, and tetrabenazineIn general, the anticataleptic...

...Marta R. Daroqui; O.A. Orsingher A single injection of amphetamine or nicotine (as previously described) or eserine were able to induce a significant increase in the RNA levels of hippocampus but not in neocortex of rats. A pretreatment with α-MT, a specific inhibitor of the catecholamine synthesis...

...A.H. Coleoni Thyroid function, as evaluated by 131 I biological half-life, thyroid secretion rate (TSR), and thyroid weight, was depressed by reserpine, α-methyl-p-tyrosine (α-MT), guanethidine and amphetamine. Tetrabenazine and e-aminocaproic acid (EACA) were without effect at the doses employed...

...O.A. Orsingher; S. Fulginiti A pretreatment with dibenamine (10 mg/kg) impaired the facilitatory learning action of both amphetamine (2 mg/kg) and nicotine (0.2 mg/kg), in a shuttle-box. However, this effect was not noticed in medullectomized rats. Pretreatment with hydralazine (5 mg/kg...

...U. Braun; DA. Kalbhen Myristicin and elemicin are phenylallyl derivatives present in nutmeg. The similarity of their chemical structure to that of mescaline or certain amphetamine derivatives has led to the assumption that the psychotropic effect of nutmeg in man is due to amphetamine derivatives...
