Comparison of central actions of intraventricularly administered octopamine, phenylethylamine and adrenaline in rats
Polish Journal of Pharmacology and Pharmacy
|January 1, 1983
Abstract:
The paper reviews and summarizes the results obtained in a series of experimental papers on the central action of octopamine (OCT), phenylethylamine (PEA) and adrenaline (ADR) on the central nervous system. The mechanism of amines' central action is related to stimulation of noradrenergic and dopaminergic systems. The central effect of OCT and PEA seems to be related to the interaction with specific binding sites.
