title: Selective depletion of spinal noradrenaline inhibits post-decapitation convulsions in rats.
abstract: Local administration of 6-hydroxydopamine in the subarachnoidal space of the spinal cord in rats resulted in a selective long-lasting depletion of spinal noradrenaline, but not of dopamine, and prevented the occurrence of post-decapitation convulsions.
