Effects on the caudate spindle in rats of dopamine microinjected into the caudate nucleus.

abstract：:In an attempt to understand the changes of circulating neuropeptide Y (NPY) during hypoxia, the plasma level of NPY was investigated by radioimmunoassay. Exposure of rats to hypobaric hypoxia at an altitude of 18,000 ft for 4 weeks causes an increase of pulmonary pressure and an elevation of plasma NPY-like immunoreac...
