Phencyclidine (PCP) activates the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and decreases plasma prolactin levels in the rat. PCP is a noncompetitive N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, but it also inhibits the reuptake of dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine. The purpose of the present study

Several studies suggest that one of the most important factors contributing to cocaine dependence is an alteration in the actions of the neurotransmitter dopamine in the central nervous system. In order to understand some of the neuroreceptor consequences of cocaine

Because the dopamine reuptake inhibitors cocaine and BTCP produce different behavioral effects after repeated administration, we studied whether they could alter each other's effects by examining the effects of crossing over repeated treatment with cocaine and BTCP on cocaine-induced locomotion.

Extracellular single-unit recordings were used to assess the effects of PCP and PCP-like drugs (MK-801 and TCP) on the burst firing of ventral tegmental A10 dopamine neurons in the rat. The effects of these noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists were

The phencyclidine (PCP) derivative, [3H]N-[1-(2-benzo[b]thiophenyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine ([3H]BTCP), was used to label in vivo the dopamine uptake complex in mouse brain. The striatum accumulated the highest level of total and specific binding. Drugs which bind to the dopamine uptake site inhibited [3H]BTCP
