Tamoxifen and toremifene impair retrieval, but not acquisition, of spatial information processing in mice.

The present study examines the effects of tamoxifen (TAM) or toremifene (TOR), two triphenylethylene antiestrogen agents, on spatial information in mice by using Morris water maze. In a 30-s free swim trial, the TAM- or TOR-treated mice (intraperitoneally, 30 min before test) spent shorter time than the blank control mice in target quadrant. Compared to saline control group, animals exposed to TAM (1-10 mg/kg i.

dl-Fenfluramine inhibits ethanol-induced ascorbic acid release in rat striatum studied by microdialysis.

The effects of dl -fenfluramine, dl -5-hydroxytryptophan(5-HTP) and fluoxetine on ethanol-induced striatal ascorbic acid (AA) release in rat were studied by microdialysis coupled to high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection. Ethanol (3.0 g/kg, i.
