Attenuation of pilocarpine-induced hypothermia in response to chronic administration of choline.

abstract：RATIONALE:Dopamine (DA) D2-like antagonists block several effects of cocaine, including its locomotor stimulant and interoceptive discriminative-stimulus effects. Because these compounds generally lack selectivity among the D2-like DA receptors, the specific roles of the subtypes remain unclear. OBJECTIVES:DA D2 recep...
