[Comparative investigation of influence of injections of chlorpromazine and 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine on locomotion, defensive reactions of snall helix lucorum and excitability of command neurons in long-term sensitization].
Comparative analysis of the action of chlorpromazine (CPZ) and neurotoxin 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine (5,6-DHT) on defensive reactions and locomotion of grape snail and elaboration of long-term sensitization (LTS), was carried out. Long-term (chronic) injection of chlorpromazine led to significant increasing of a pneumostome closing time and to changing of motor behaviour towards decrease of the velocity of the locomotion. Daily injections of 5,6-DHT in small doses within a week were accompanied by the gradual decrease of the velocity of snails locomotion, which was kept for a week. Similar effect was observed in injection of neurotoxin (30 mgs/kg). Injections of CPZ prevents elaboration of LTS, as well as injections of 5,6-DHT. After the action of CPZ, LTS, LTS followed by CPZ, and also during elaboration of LTS after injection of CPZ, the velocity of locomotion directly depended on the length of leg. During elaboration of LTS after injection of 5,6-DHT, such dependency is not retained. Electrophysiological study revealed that chronic injections of CPZ led to depolarizing shift of membrane potential and decrease of the threshold of action potential generation in command neurons as after injection of neurotoxin 5,6-DHT. Therefore, the action of neuroleptic drug CPZ on the defensive behaviour, locomotion of grape snail and electrical characteristics of identifying neurons is comparable with the action of toxic analogue of serotonin.
