Abstract
The effect of various doses of the serotonin (5-HT) release-inducing agent d-fenfluramine (d-fenf) on extracellular dopamine (DA), 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) was studied in vivo in the striatum of halothane-anesthetized rats, following systemic and local administration. At 5 and 10 but not 2.5 mg/kg, d-fenf administered intraperitoneally significantly increased DA extracellular concentration and reduced DOPAC outflow. A concentration-dependent enhancement of DA dialysate content was also found following intrastriatal application (5, 10, 25, and 50 microM). The bilateral administration of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine into the dorsal raphe nucleus, which markedly depleted 5-HT in the striatum, did not modify the effect on extracellular DA concentration of 25 microM d-fenf locally applied into the striatum. The enhancement of extracellular DA level induced by 25 microM d-fenf was slightly but significantly reduced by the local application of 25 microM citalopram. The blockade of DA uptake sites by nomifensine (0.1, 0.3, and 1 microM) did not modify significantly the effect of d-fenf. The rise of DA outflow induced by 25 microM d-fenf was strongly reduced in the presence of 1 microM t...Continue Reading
