Release of acetylcholinesterase from guinea-pig substantia nigra: effects of tryptaminergic drugs and dorsal raphé nucleus stimulation.

abstract：:beta-Endorphin is the putative precursor molecule of gamma- and alpha-endorphin. To investigate whether long-term changes in the activity of cells producing beta-endorphin are paralleled by alterations in the enzymatic processing of beta-endorphin, the effects of chronic treatment of rats with dopamine (DA) receptor l...
