title: Effect of haloperidol and clozapine on (+)SKF 10,047-induced dopamine release: role of 5-HT3 receptors.
abstract: (+)SKF 10,047 preferentially increased dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens compared to the striatum. Dopamine output was evaluated in the same freely moving rats by trans-cerebral dialysis. Clozapine and DAU 6215, a 5HT3 antagonist, which itself did not modify dopamine release in both areas, selectively antagonized (+)SKF 10,047-induced dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens. Haloperidol by itself increased dopamine release in both areas and these effects were additive with those induced by (+)SKF 10,047.
