Actions Of A Partial D2-Like Agonist During Low Or High Dopaminergic Tone: A Neurochemical Study Using Preweanling Rats, Shelly Taeko Yoshida Jan 2005

Actions Of A Partial D2-Like Agonist During Low Or High Dopaminergic Tone: A Neurochemical Study Using Preweanling Rats, Shelly Taeko Yoshida

Theses Digitization Project

The neurochemical effects of partial D2-like agonists (i.e., terguride) to alter striatal DOPA accumulation under high and low dopaminergic tone was examined in preweanling rats. The results indicate that terguride has agonist-like (quinpirole-like) effects under a low dopaminergic tone and antagonist-like (haloperidol-like) effects under a high dopaminergic tone during the preweanling period.


Effect Of Preweanling Methylphenidate Exposure On The Induction, Extinction And Reinstatement Of Morphine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference In Rats, Kellie Lynn Kucher Jan 2005

Effect Of Preweanling Methylphenidate Exposure On The Induction, Extinction And Reinstatement Of Morphine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference In Rats, Kellie Lynn Kucher

Theses Digitization Project

This study examined the effect of preweanling methyphenidate exposure on later drug reward. We examined the induction, extinction, and reinstatement of morphine induced conditioned place preference (CPP) in rats that received methylphenidate pretreatment during the preweanling period.
