Interaction of tacrine at M1 and M2 cholinoceptors in guinea pig brain.

abstract：:Amphetamine is a sympathomimetic and psychotropic drug which is extensively metabolized in liver and in brain. One of its major metabolites, p-hydroxyamphetamine, is accumulated by cortical and striatal synaptosomes. In order to learn whether p-hydroxyamphetamine can be further metabolized to a catecholamine, a sensit...
