Abstract

Microiontophoretic application of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on rat caudate nucleus neurons has both facilitatory and inhibitory effects on the discharge frequency of the neurons; in many cases 5-HT has a two-phase action. An analysis was made of the behaviour of facilitatory and inhibitory responses in time considering the mean firing rate variations during and after 5-HT iontophoretic release. The experimental results were statistically elaborated.
