Abstract
Intraventricular administration of cholecystokinin-octapeptide in unanesthetized rats results in a significant reduction in the number of [3H]spiperone binding sites. Striatal levels of the dopamine metabolites 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid and homovanillic acid were significantly reduced, whereas there was no significant reduction in the levels of the serotonin metabolite 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid.
