Intrathecal administration of CGRP in the rat attenuates a facilitation of the tail flick reflex induced by either substance P or noxious cutaneous stimulation.

abstract：:4-Methylamphetamine (4-MA) has recently emerged as a designer drug of abuse in Europe and it is consumed always with amphetamine. There have been reported some deaths and non-fatal intoxications related to 4-MA. We investigated the changes in locomotor activity and body temperature after 4-MA administration to male Sp...

To examine the genesis of neuromelanin, we advanced a new hypothesis that neuromelanin is formed by oxidation of dopamine and cysteinyldopamine. On the basis of this hypothesis, synthetic neuromelanins were obtained by t...
