title: Effect of clozapine on the oxygen, glucose uptake and oxidative phosphorylation of rat brain in vitro.
abstract: Clozapine, a neuroleptic drug isostere of the phenothiazines, at a dose of 10(-3) M decreased the oxygen consumption of rat brain slices and homogenates. However, this effect was not potentiated when brain slices were incubated with 100 mM potassium or in a calcium-free medium, the uncoupling of brain mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation by 10(-3) M clozapine can also be rulled out.
