Effects of chronic amphetamine or reserpine on self-stimulation responding: animal model of depression?

abstract：RATIONALE:Synthesis of ligands inactive or with low activity at α₁ GABA(A) receptors has become the key concept for development of novel, more tolerable benzodiazepine (BZ)-like drugs. WYS8, a remarkably (105 times) α₁-subtype selective partial positive modulator, may serve as a pharmacological tool for refining the ro...
