Asymmetrical influence of mesocortical dopamine depletion on stress ulcer development and subcortical dopamine systems in rats: Implications for psychopathology
Abstract
The effects of left, right or bilateral depletion of the mesocortical dopamine innervation (medial prefrontal and anterior cingulate) with 6-hydroxydopamine were examined in male Sprague-Dawley rats tested for susceptibility to cold restraint-induced gastric stress pathology. All three types of lesions tended to potentiate the development of stress pathology (i.e. ulceration) in comparison to restrained shams, but only right cortical dopamine …
