摘要
Bilateral administration of NMDA (5 X 10(-10) mol) in the substantia nigra pars compacta increases the striatal dopamine (DA) release. However, this enhancing effect of NMDA was suppressed by nitrous oxide exposure at 0.1 MPa, which induced per se a decrease of the DA release. These results show that nitrous oxide exerts a reversal effect on the increase in striatal DA release produced by NMDA receptor activation in the substantia nigra pars compacta. This observation may be related to the fact that nitrous oxide is thought to produce its effects by acting as an NMDA receptor antagonist. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
