1 Therefore, rats were restrained for 2 h and injected with vehicle or 60-1,000 micrograms/kg of the 5-HT1A agonist 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) s.c. Vehicle-treated restrained rats showed reduced locomotor activity and increased defaecation in an open field test the day after the end of restraint. 8-Hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A Rattus norvegicus

3 Evidence suggests that the above action of 8-OH-DPAT is mediated by 5-HT1A receptors since it was antagonised by the 5-HT1A antagonist spiperone but not by the 5-HT2 antagonist ketanserin and was not mimicked by the 5-HT1B agonist RU 24969. 8-Hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A Rattus norvegicus
