The Effect of Different Neuroleptic Drugs on the Monoamine Neurons of the Rat Brain

  • Chapter
New Aspects of Storage and Release Mechanisms of Catecholamines

Part of the book series: Bayer Symposium ((BAYER-SYMP,volume 2))

Abstract

Recently it has been shown that psychoactive substances induce changes in the neuronal activity in the monoamine neurons of the rat brain leading to changes in the turnover of the respective monoamine. Such a turnover change can be revealed by blocking the biosynthesis of the corresponding amine. For references see Andén et al. (1968).
