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

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
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

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
