Dopamine 79-87 neurotensin Rattus norvegicus 0-11 10658621-1 2000 In the present study we describe the excitatory effects of the bioactive peptide neurotensin on the electrical activity of dopamine neurons (simultaneously recorded) in the substantia nigra pars compacta and the ventral tegmental area. Dopamine 123-131 neurotensin Rattus norvegicus 81-92 10658621-2 2000 The neurotensin fragment (8-13) induced comparable increases in firing rate of the substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area dopamine neurons (EC50 values 30 and 45 nM, respectively). Dopamine 127-135 neurotensin Rattus norvegicus 4-15
