On the brain monoaminergic systems relating to ejaculation. I. Brain dopamine and ejaculation.
The effects of psychotropic drugs on ejaculation in dogs and on brain monoamines in dogs and rats were investigated. The results obtained in this study indicate that ejaculation is activated by the dopaminergic system in the brain, and that dopamine in the anterior hypothalamus is closely related to the occurrence of ejaculation.
