Dopamine 'D2-like' receptor agonists in combination with cocaine: absence of interactive effects on locomotor activity.

abstract：:The present study used the microdialysis technique to investigate the effect of treadmill running, without the use of an electric grid, on extracellular serotonin in the ventral hippocampus of male Lister hooded rat. Extracellular hippocampal serotonin was measured during 60min of treadmill running at 20m/min and comp...
