Effect of dopamine-depleting brain lesions in rat pups: role of striatal serotonergic neurons in behavior.

abstract：:This study was performed with male rats categorized as sexually naive (SN), sexually active (SA), or sexually inactive (SI). In a first experiment the effects of dopamine (DA) D2 agonist SND 919 (0.05, 1, and 10 mg/kg) on the copulatory behavior of SN, SA and SI rats were assessed. In a second experiment the DA D2 ago...
