Abstract

The effects of duloxetine (LY248686), a new inhibitor of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) uptake on extracellular levels of NE, 5-HT and dopamine (DA), were studied in the rat frontal cortex and nucleus accumbens, using in vivo microdialysis. The oral administration of duloxetine (3.125-12.5 mg/kg) produced a dose-dependent increase in the output of both NE and 5-HT from the frontal cortex, this increase being maintained throughout the 4-hr observation period. Chronic administration of duloxetine (6.25 mg/kg, p.o.) for 14 days failed to alter basal NE and 5-HT levels in the frontal cortex, but augmented the duloxetine-induced increase in output of NE and 5-HT. Amitriptyline and maprotiline, administered p.o. at doses of 6.25 to 25 mg/kg, increased NE output, but the effect was weaker than that of duloxetine, and neither amitriptyline nor maprotiline changed 5-HT output from the frontal cortex. Duloxetine, amitriptyline, and maprotiline brought about increases in DA levels in the rat frontal cortex, the increase in DA levels induced by duloxetine being approximately two or three times more potent than that induced by amitriptyline and maprotiline. In the nucleus accumbens, duloxetine also produced a dose-dependent increase in DA output more potent than that produced by amitriptyline and maprotiline. These results show that duloxetine causes a potent and sustained increase in the output of both NE and 5-HT in the rat frontal cortex, related to its inhibition of NE and 5-HT uptake; these results also show that duloxetine increases DA output in the frontal cortex.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
