apomorphine/edema

Apomorphine, a mixed dopaminergic agonist was given sublingually to 12 patients with Parkinson's disease disabled by severe on-off fluctuations. The patient's mean age was 57 years and the duration of Parkinson's disease was 12 years. All patients were also given domperidone (60 mg/day). Apomorphine

Pharmacological properties of buprenorphine were compared with those of morphine and pentazocine. Buprenorphine scarcely showed any effects on spontaneous EEGs and sleep-wakefulness cycles. Buprenorphine tended to depress the recruiting and augmenting responses and the spindle burst, and it also

The selectivity, peripheral vs. central actions, of the antidopaminergic agent L-646,462 was assessed in two ways. First, elevation of prolactin in serum (peripheral) and homovanillic acid in the striatum were measured in rats. L-646,462 was found to have a central/peripheral activity ratio of 143,

The effects of monosialoganglioside (GM1) injections on neuronal reorganization and behavioral recovery were studied in rats with unilateral transections of the nigro-striatal pathway. In Experiment 1, animals were treated daily with injections of saline or GM1 for not more than 14 days. At 2 days
