Involvement of 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2) receptors of the inferior colliculus in aversive states induced by exposure of rats to the elevated plus-maze test.

abstract：:Acute (10mg/kg, i.p.) and chronic (10mg/kg/day, i.p. for 10 days) diazepam treatments decreased hippocampal dialysate 5-HT (but not 5-HIAA) concentrations in freely moving rats, suggesting decreased availability of 5-HT to receptors. Twenty-four hours after the last chronic diazepam injection, hippocampal dialysate 5-...
