Intraspecific aggressiveness after lesions of midbrain raphe nuclei in rats.

Abstract:

:Serotonin-depleting lesions of midbrain raphe (extensive lesions located within dorsal and partly median raphe muclei) induced intraspecific agressiveness in grouped Wistar male rats but failed to increase mouse-killing behaviour. Rats which had lesions in the lateral midbrain did not display intraspecific aggression nor mouse-killing activity. These animals showed unchanged levels of both serotonin and noradrenaline in the forebrain.

  • Studies on the mechanism of action of colloidal bismuth subcitrate. I. Interaction with sulfhydryls.

    abstract::The present study was designed to examine the reaction pathway of colloidal bismuth subcitrate (CBS) with thiols. Studies were performed using the monothiol glutathione (GSH), the dithiol dithiothreitol (DTT) and the thiol enzymes papain and H+/K(+)-ATPase. UV-vis spectra showed that CBS forms complexes with GSH and D...
