Effects of brain monoamine depletion on thermoregulation, active avoidance, and food and water intake in rats.
Intraventricular administration of 6-OHDA or 5,6-DHT suppressed food intake, whereas their effect on active avoidance produced a suppression with the former and an enhancement with the latter. The increased water intake was specifically associated with 5,6-DHT treatment in rats.
