Effects of adinazolam on plasma catecholamine, heart rate and blood pressure responses in stressed and non-stressed rats.

abstract：:Amphetamine has been shown to either potentiate or protect against MPTP neurotoxicity. The time course of changes in dopamine and its metabolites was examined after MPTP, amphetamine, or MPTP plus amphetamine administration. Results suggest that under conditions of granular depletion and release of dopamine by 10 mg/k...
