Stress-induced 5-HT1A receptor desensitization: protective effects of Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb 761).

abstract：:Brain ageing affects numerous cerebral metabolic pathways such as cerebral glucose consumption or protein synthesis rate. The pharmacological effect of a mixed D1-D2 dopaminergic agonist, piribedil, on this last metabolism is reported. Cerebral Protein Synthesis Rate (CPSR) was measured by the [35S]L-methionine autora...
