Piracetam reverses haloperidol-induced catalepsy in mice
Results: Th e administration of haloperidol (2 mg/kg, IP) resulted in signifi cant catalepsy. Piracetam (in dosages of 50, 100, and 300 mg/kg) given IP at the time of haloperidol administration reduced the duration of catalepsy by 24.4%, 32.3%, and 48.2%, respectively. Piracetam given as a 30-min pretreatment reduced the duration of catalepsy by 59.5%, 72.3%, and 78.2%, respectively. Vinpocetin...
متن کاملDiversity and Abundance of Insects in Wukari, Taraba State, Nigeria
A field survey was conducted in Wukari, Taraba State to assess the diversity and abundance of insect species in selected habitats (residential, open field made up of grassland and an agroecosystem). Sampling were done biweekly using light, pitfall and yellow pan traps set in 3 replicates, 30 m apart. Insects recovered were wet preserved in 70% ethanol except butterflies and moths. Representativ...
متن کاملBandage-backfall reaction: occurs in infancy, hypothalamic damage, and catalepsy.
In cataleptic clinging, produced either by catecholamine-blocking drugs or lateral hypothalamic damage in adult cats, rats, or monkeys, bandaging the face and neck causes the head to fall backwards. Early in development, a similar reaction can be seen in normal undrugged infants.
متن کاملRole of 5-Hydroxytryptamine 1A Receptors in 6-Hydroxydopmaine-induced Catalepsy-like Immobilization in Rats: a Therapeutic Approach for Treating Catalepsy of Parkinson’s Disease
We have shown that buspirone, a partial agonist of 5-hydroxytryptamine 1A (5-HT1A) receptors, improves motor dysfunctions induced by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) and haloperidol in rats. The present work extends these findings by investigating the role of 5-HT1A receptors on catalepsy-like immobilization in rats, a model of Parkinson’s disease. Catalepsy was induced by unilateral infusion of 6-OH...
متن کاملPOSSIBLE INVOLVEMENT OF GABAA RECEPTOR SITES IN CATALEPSY
The present work was performed to show the possible interaction of GAB A, and GABAB receptors in catalepsy. The following results were obtained: 1- Muscimol (MUS), a GABAA agonist, induced catalepsy. This effect was dose-dependent. Baclofen (BAC), a GABAB agonist, had no effect in this respect. 2- Catalepsy induced by muscimol was potentiated by pretreatment of animals with bicuculline (BI...
