Effect of selective inhibitors of tyrosine and tryptophan hydroxylases on self-stimulation in the rat
TLDR
Measurement of amine levels suggested that catecholamine depletion was more influential at increasing the self-timulation threshold than serotonin depletion, and data suggest that both catecholicamines and serotonin are involved in pathways for self-stimulating drive-reward.About:

Ethanol Self-Administration Restores Withdrawal-Associated Deficiencies in Accumbal Dopamine and 5-Hydroxytryptamine Release in Dependent Rats
Friedbert Weiss,Loren H. Parsons,Gery Schulteis,Petri Hyytiä,Marge T. Lorang,Floyd E. Bloom,George F. Koob +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that deficits in accumbal monoamine release may contribute to the negative affective consequences ethanol withdrawal and, thereby, motivate ethanol-seeking behavior in dependent subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Catecholamine systems as the neural substrate for intracranial self-stimulation: a hypothesis.
TL;DR: Brain sites that support ICSS in the rat were found to be highly correlated with electrodes in 3 major CA systems: the mesolimbic and nigrostriatal dopaminergic systems and the dorsal noradrenergic system.

TL;DR: The Septum as a Pacemaker for the Hippocampal Theta Rhythm and Towards a Neuronal Model to Account for the Laminar Waveforms of Theta Activity are studied.

Catecholamine-containing neurones and electrical self-stimulation. 1. A review of some data.
TL;DR: The hypothesis is advanced that electrical self-stimulation results in the majority of cases from activation of one or both of these catecholamine-containing systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects on self-stimulation behavior of drugs influencing dopaminergic neurotransmission mechanisms.
TL;DR: The results suggest that, in addition to noradrenaline, the integrity of central dopaminergic systems may be essential for the behavioral expression of certain motivational processes.

TL;DR: The chest walls of rabbits exposed to steep-fronted air shock waves of short duration produced by 50 g spherical charges of TNT were recorded by means of a mechano-electric motion transducer to study the correlation between the deformations of the chest and the damage inflicted to the underlying organs, especially the lungs.

TL;DR: The results suggest that p -chlorophenylalanine may effect 5HT depletion by inhibiting the biosynthesis of this monoamine, possibly by blocking tryptophan hydroxylation.

Demonstration and mapping out of nigro-neostriatal dopamine neurons
TL;DR: The data give strong evidence for the existence of nigro-neostriatal dopamine neurons, which probably contain most or all of the dopamine present in the neostriatum.
