The effect of a bovine hypothalamic factor on mouse brain neurotransmitters
Abstract
A substance isolated from the bovine hypothalamus was found to protect against the toxicity of amphetamine in the crowded mice situation. We measured the levels of brain catecholamines (norepinephrine and dopamine) and γ-aminobutyric acid during crowding following the administration of amphetamine, hypothalamic factor, and amphetamine + hypothalamic factor simultaneously. Amphetamine at high dosage (20mg/kg) decreased brain norepinephrine …
