A microdialysis study of ventral striatal dopamine during sexual behavior in female Syrian hamsters
(Elsevier, 1993-06-30)
Microdialysis was used to study the effects of exposure to a male hamster on extracellular concentrations of dopamine, dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), homovanillic acid (HVA), and 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA) ...
Estrogen rapidly potentiates amphetamine-induced striatal dopamine release and rotational behavior during microdialysis
(Elsevier, 1990-10-16)
Ovariectomy (OVX) of female rats results in a decreased behavioral response to stimulation of the mesostriatal dopamine (DA) system and decreased striatal DA release in vitro. Estrogen replacement restores both behavioral ...
Bidirectional control of saccadic eye movements by the disconnected cerebral hemispheres
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-10)
The present investigation demonstrates that callosotomy patient J.W. can generate either leftward or rightward saccades in response to color cues presented unilaterally. When asked to name the colors, performance was at ...
Hormonal induction of behavioral estrus modified by electrical stimulation of hypothalamus
(Elsevier, 1972-07)
Sexual receptivity was induced by sequential injections of estrogen and progesterone in ovariectomized female rats which had bilateral, monopolar electrodes permanently implanted into either the medial preoptic area (MPOA) ...
Sex differences in the effects of gonadectomy on amphetamine-induced rotational behavior in rats
(Elsevier, 1986-11)
The effects of gonadectomy on amphetamine-induced rotational behavior were studied in male and female rats. Different systemic doses were used to produce equivalent brain concentrations of the drug in each group, thereby ...
Phobic anxiety does not affect plasma levels of thyroid stimulating hormone in man
(Elsevier, 1982)
(1) The effect of anxiety on plasma levels of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is not clear, despite a number of relevant studies. (2) Nine human subjects with severe phobias had blood samples taken for TSH assay every ...
Localization and detection of visual stimuli in monkeys with pulvinar lesions
(Springer-Verlag, 1982-12)
Since the pulvinar receives a major ascending projection of the superior colliculus, pulvinar lesions might produce behavioral impairments resembling those that follow colliculus lesions. To test this possibility, we ...
The role of frontal cortex-reticular interactions in performance and extinction of the classically conditioned nictitating membrane response in the rabbit
(Elsevier, 1982-06)
In order to investigate the behavioral role of interactions between frontal cortex and reticular nuclei, we examined the effects of single and combined lesions of these structures on the classically conditioned nictitating ...
Chronic skull-anchored percutaneous implants in non-human primates
(Elsevier, 1989-09)
Three groups of chronic, skull-anchored, percutaneous implants differing in materials, design and surgical procedures used for implantation, were tested in macaque monkeys in conjunction with studies of an inner ear ...
Basal extracellular dopamine in the nucleus accumbens during amphetamine withdrawal: a `no net flux' microdialysis study
(Elsevier, 1993-12-24)
The basal extracellular concentration of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens was quantified using the `no net flux' microdialysis method, in rats undergoing withdrawal from -amphetamine. Rats were initially pretreated with ...
