title: Regional brain homovanillic acid following delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol and cocaine.
abstract: delta 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (10 mg/kg) increased homovanillic acid in rat prefrontal cortex and olfactory tubercle. This dose did not affect homovanillic acid in the caudate. Higher doses increased homovanillic acid in all 3 regions. Cocaine (20, 30, or 50 mg/kg) did not affect homovanillic acid in any of these brain regions.
