The role of central serotonergic mechanisms on head-twitch and backward locomotion induced by hallucinogenic drugs
@article{Yamamoto1981TheRO, title={The role of central serotonergic mechanisms on head-twitch and backward locomotion induced by hallucinogenic drugs}, author={T. Yamamoto and S. Ueki}, journal={Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior}, year={1981}, volume={14}, pages={89-95} }
Head-twitch induced by lysergic acid diethylamide, mescaline and 2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylamphetamine (DOM) was significantly increased by medial raphe (m-R) lesions, but dorsal raphe (d-R) lesions did not produce any changes. Hallucinogen-induced head twitch was inhibited by methysergide and tended to be increased by PCPA. These results suggest that 5-HT receptors innervated with the ascending 5-HT pathway originating in the m-R play a vital role in the manifestation of hallucinogen-induced head… CONTINUE READING
