[Tetrodotoxine-dependent glycine release in the rat nucleus accumbens during correction of feeding behaviour].
Presence of a tone previously paired with a foot-shock in rats during food intake increases the glycine extracellular level in the n. accumbens. The increase will be completely prevented by intra-accumbal infusion of Na-channel blocking agent tetrodotoxine. The findings suggest that glycine mechanisms in the n. accumbens are involved in the correction of feeding behaviour.
