Interactions between D-ala-met-enkephalin, A10 dopaminergic neurones, and spontaneous behaviour in the rat.
We have investigated the interaction between opioid peptides and dopaminergic A10 (DA-A10) neurones in the ventral tegmental area (VTA). The behavioural consequences of VTA infusion of d-Ala-Met-enkephalinamide (DALA) were analyzed. DALA elicited a dose-dependent increase in locomotor activity measu...
