|January 1, 1981
Abstract:
gamma-Endorphin inhibits the amphetamine-induced stereotypy in rats with an approximate ED50 of 0.3 mg/kg. SC. The anti-amphetamine effect of gamma-endorphin can be antagonized to a certain extent by both the dopamine receptor stimulant 2-bromo-ergocryptine and the opiate receptor antagonist naloxone.
