Abstract:
:The administration of a small dose of apomorphine (50 micrograms/kg s.c.) induced repeated episodes of yawning in male rats. Short-term (3 days) treatment with 17 beta-estradiol antagonized apomorphine-induced yawning in male rats. Moreover, apomorphine induced yawning much less effectively in female than in male rats. These results suggest that both endogenous or exogenously administered estrogens induce subsensitivity of the DA receptors mediating yawning in rats.
