The effect of 5 hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on gastric acid secretion by the rat isolated stomach has been studied. 5-HT (10 microM) significantly inhibited secretory responses to pentagastrin, histamine and isoprenaline but not those due to bethanechol, dibutyryl cyclic AMP or

The aim of the present investigation was to examine whether or not presynaptic facilitatory beta-adrenoceptors are detectable on the postganglionic nerves in the rabbit isolated ear artery. Strips of rabbit central ear artery were incubated with 3H-noradrenaline (10(-7) mol/l; 30
A quasi-morphine withdrawal syndrome (QMWS) is a pattern of behavior closely resembling the true withdrawal syndrome in the opiate-dependent animal, which can be elicited acutely by a nonopiate drug in an opiate-naive animal. The main criteria proposed for the QMWS
The significance of a characteristic symptomatology (hypothermia, hypoactivity, forepaw shaking, grooming, head twitches) as a potential in vivo correlate of enhanced availability of brain adenosine cyclic 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) was examined in rats following systemic administration of various doses of dibutyryladenosine
Primary cultures of rat hepatocytes were used to study the combined effects of insulin and dexamethasone on cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE 3) and glycogen metabolism. PDE activity was measured in extracts obtained by hypotonic shock treatment of the particulate
