Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes can modulate dopamine (DA) neurotransmission and thereby modify the behavioral effects of drugs acting on DA systems. Insulin replacement, and in some conditions repeated treatment with amphetamine, can partially restore sensitivity of STZ-treated rats to dopaminergic drugs. The present study sought to characterize the role of insulin and amphetamine in mod...
The use of classic antipsychotic drugs is limited by the occurrence of extrapyramidal motor symptoms, which are caused by dopamine (DA) receptor blockade in the neostriatum. We examined the impact of early-life stress on haloperidol-induced catalepsy using the rat model of prenatal restraint stress (PRS). Adult "PRS rats," i.e., the offspring of mothers exposed to restraint stress during pregna...
OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) on animal models of schizophrenia. METHODS Seventy Swiss albino female mice (25-35 g) were divided into 4 groups: amphetamine-free (control), amphetamine, 50, and 100 mg/kg DHEA. The DHEA was administered intraperitoneally (ip) for 5 days. Amphetamine (3 mg/kg ip) induced hyper locomotion, apomorphine (1.5 mg/kg subcutaneously ...
Haloperidol, an antipsychotic drug, leads to the development of a behavioural state called catalepsy, in which the animal is not able to correct an externally imposed posture. In the present study we have attempted to evaluate the anticataleptic effect of Tribulus terrestris on haloperidol-induced catalepsy in albino mice. Mice were allocated to four groups, each group containing six animals. B...
BACKGROUND Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) have been shown to be potential targets for numerous neurological diseases, including Parkinson's disease (PD). We previously reported that ACPT-1, a non-selective group III mGluRs agonist, injected locally into the globus pallidus, striatum or substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr), significantly attenuated the haloperidol-induced catalepsy ...
Buspirone, a partial agonist of 5-hydroxytryptaminelA autoreceptors, preferentially blocks the presynaptic rather than the postsynaptic D2 dopamine (DA) receptors. Behavioural effects of a wide dose range of buspirone were therefore studied in mice. Buspirone at 0.625 to 5 mg/kg ip induced stereotyped cage climbing behaviour which was antagonized by pretreatment with haloperidol, alpha-methyl-p...
An aqueous root extract from Nardostachys jatamansi was investigated for its antioxidant and anticataleptic effects in the haloperidol-induced catalepsy rat model of the disease by measuring various behavioral and biochemical parameters. Catalepsy was induced by administration of haloperidol (1 mg/kg, ip) in male albino rats. A significant (P < 0.01) reduction in the cataleptic scores were obse...
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...
Effects of Cannabis sativa extract on haloperidol-induced catalepsy and oxidative stress in the mice
Haloperidol is a classic antipsychotic drug known for its propensity to cause extrapyramidal symptoms due to blockade of dopamine D2 receptors in the striatum. Interest in medicinal uses of cannabis is growing. Cannabis sativa has been suggested as a possible adjunctive in treatment of Parkinson's disease. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of repeated administration of an extrac...
Since all of the so-called "major tranquilizers" have the ability to induce catatonic states in experimental animals, this characteristic pharmacological property is commonly being used as a clue to detecting new compounds in screening tests. However, not all compounds that produce the catalepsy in animals are "tranquilizers". One remarkable example is bulbocapnine, an alkaloid isolated from Co...
