The effects of increased serotonergic and decreased cholinergic activities on spatial navigation performance in rats.

Pharmacol. Biochem. Behav. 39(1) , 25-9, (1991)

In the present set of experiments the effects of a serotonin (5-HT) reuptake blocker, alaproclate (alap) and of a muscarinic antagonist, scopolamine (scop) on place navigation (hidden platform) and cued navigation (visible platform) water maze tasks were inve...

The effects of alaproclate and p-chlorophenylalanine on cued navigation performance in rats.

J. Neural Transm. Park. Dis. Dement. Sect. 4(1) , 43-52, (1992)

The present study investigates the effects of a serotonin (5-HT) reuptake inhibitor, alaproclate, on water maze cued navigation performance in serotonin depleted and control rats. Treatment with p-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA), a serotonin synthesis inhibitor, (...

Non-reversal of scopolamine- or age-related EEG changes by ondansetron, methysergide or alaproclate.

Psychopharmacology 103(4) , 567-70, (1991)

The present studies investigates the effects of a 5HT3-antagonist (ondansetron: 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 micrograms), a 5HT2-antagonist (methysergide: 2, 10, 20 mg/kg) and a serotonin uptake inhibitor (alaproclate: 2, 10, 20 mg/kg) on the neocortical electrical activ...

Affinity and specificity of N-methyl- D-aspartate channel blockers affect their ability to disrupt prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle in rats.

Psychopharmacology 165(4) , 378-85, (2003)

Phencyclidine (PCP) binds with high affinity to a site located within the ionophore of N-methyl- D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors. Previous studies have demonstrated that PCP and other high-affinity NMDA channel blockers reliably disrupt prepulse inhibition (PPI)...

Effects of alaproclate, potassium channel blockers, and lidocaine on the release of 3H-acetylcholine from the guinea-pig ileum myenteric plexus.

Pharmacol. Toxicol. 65(1) , 25-32, (1989)

The guinea-pig ileum longitudinal muscle-myenteric plexus preparation, preincubated with 3H-choline or 3H-noradrenaline, was mounted in an organ bath and superfused with Tyrode's solution. Alaproclate (2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethyl 2-aminopropanoate) (0.01-...

Further studies on the high-affinity binding of 3H-alaproclate to membranes from rat liver and some other tissues.

Pharmacol. Toxicol. 66(3) , 170-5, (1990)

The high affinity binding of 3H-alaproclate to membranes in liver homogenates from naive rats and those treated with phenobarbital sodium, 75 mg/kg intraperitoneally, alaproclate hydrochloride, 40 mg/kg intraperitoneally proadifen hydrochloride, 40 mg/kg intr...

NMDA receptor-mediated increase in cyclic GMP in the rat cerebellum in vivo is blocked by alaproclate and GEA-857.

Pharmacol. Toxicol. 80(2) , 97-102, (1997)

The effects of alaproclate and GEA-857 (2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylethyl 2-amino-3-methylbutanoate) on the production of cyclic GMP in the rat cerebellum in vivo induced by stimulation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors were studied. Alaproclate per...

Comparison of high affinity binding of 3H-proadifen and 3H-(-)-cocaine to rat liver membranes.

Pharmacol. Toxicol. 76(2) , 141-5, (1995)

The characteristics of the binding of 3H-proadifen to rat liver membranes were studied and compared to those of 3H-cocaine. It was found that 3H-proadifen was bound reversibly with high affinity (KD = 1.8 +/- 0.5 nM) and large capacity (Bmax = 2010 +/- 340 pm...

Open space swimming test to index antidepressant activity.

J. Neurosci. Methods 126(1) , 35-40, (2003)

Depression is characterized by a lack of "motivation" rather than a lack of "physical space" to move around. This study was designed to evaluate predictivity of an open space swimming test for antidepressant activity of various antidepressants in rats. Withou...

Effects of serotonergic agents on survival and hemolymph composition of the larval mosquito Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae, L.) in vivo: does serotonin regulate hemolymph acid-base homeostasis?

J. Exp. Biol. 212(Pt 22) , 3728-36, (2009)

The role of serotonin in the regulation of larval Aedes aegypti hemolymph composition was investigated in vivo using two reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), alaproclate HCl and 6-nitroquipazine maleate, and the receptor antagonist methiothepin mesylate. Larvae were ...
