The anticonvulsant effects of 3,4-Dimethoxy toluene (DMT), the major constituent of the date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) spathe, were investigated using pentylenetetrazole (PTZ), picrotoxin (Pic), nicotine (Nic) and maximal electroshock (MES)-induced seizure models. In PTZ (85 mg/kg)-induced seizures, the intraperitoneally injection of DMT at a dose of 100 mg/kg significantly delayed the onse...

A Non‐Uniform Discrete Multitone (DMT) transceiver employing an octave spaced quadrature mirror filter (QMF) bank, can be used to overcome the problem of channel noise enhancement in the zero‐ forcing (ZF) equalization technique. In this letter, performance of the Non‐Uniform DMT system is analyzed. A study of the crosstalk between sub‐channels due to non‐ideal filter banks is also presented. C...

Tolerance of the behavioral effects of the short-acting, endogenous hallucinogen, N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is seen inconsistently in animals, and has not been produced in humans. The nature and time course of responses to repetitive, closely spaced administrations of an hallucinogenic dose of DMT were characterized. Thirteen experienced hallucinogen users received intravenous 0.3 mg/kg DMT ...

Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) are often ingested together with tryptamine hallucinogens, but relatively little is known about the consequences of their combined use. We have shown previously that monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A) inhibitors alter the locomotor profile of the hallucinogen 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT) in rats, and enhance its interaction with 5-HT2A receptors. Th...

5-Methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT or street name "5-MEO") is a newer designer drug belonging to a group of naturally occurring indolealkylamines. Our recent study has demonstrated that coadministration of monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) inhibitor harmaline (5 mg/kg) increases systemic exposure to 5-MeO-DMT (2 mg/kg) and active metabolite bufotenine. This study is aimed at delineating harm...

5-Methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT) is a natural hallucinogen, acting as a non-selective serotonin 5-HT(1A)/5-HT(2A)-R agonist. Psychotomimetic agents such as the non-competitive NMDA-R antagonist phencyclidine and serotonergic hallucinogens (DOI and 5-MeO-DMT) disrupt cortical synchrony in the low frequency range (<4 Hz) in rat prefrontal cortex (PFC), an effect reversed by antipsycho...

The time course of N.N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) levels in brain and liver of adult male Holtzman rats was determined with and without pretreatment with the monoamine oxidase inhibitors iproniazid (32 mg/kg) and tranylcypromine (IO mg/kg) given i.p. DMT was given in doses of 1.0. 3.2 and 10.0 mg/kg i.p. DMT was assayed spectrophotofluorometrically and in some Instances by a radioisotopic method....

We recently discovered an opioid peptide analgesic, 2',6'-dimethyltyrosine (Dmt)-D-Arg-Phe-Lys-NH(2) ([Dmt(1)]DALDA), that can protect against ischemia-induced myocardial stunning. In buffer-perfused hearts, 30-min global ischemia followed by reperfusion resulted in a significant increase in norepinephrine (NE) overflow immediately upon reperfusion and significant decline in contractile force (...
