Serotonergic Agonists and Antagonists Affect Endurance Performance in the Rat
Abstract
The purpose of this experiment was to examine the effects of administration of serotonergic (5-HT) agonist and antagonist drugs on run-time to exhaustion (RUN-EXH) in male and female rats. RUN-EXH was reduced (p < 0.05) in a dose related manner by increasing dosages of quipazine dimaleate (QD: general 5-HT agonist) (0-5 mg.kg-1 i.p.) administered immediately prior to exercise (treadmill running at 20 m.min-1 and 5% grade). Conversely, RUN-EXH was increased (p < 0.05) by the greatest dosage of LY 53,857 (LY: 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 antagonist) (1.5 mg.kg-1 i.p.). Drug effects were similar in male and female rats. The negative effects of QD administration on RUN-EXH were not attenuated by administration of the peripherally restricted antagonist, xylamidine tosylate (up to 200 ug.kg-1 i.p.). The results of this investigation indicated that fatigue during prolonged exercise can be influenced by direct pharmacological administration of a serotonergic agonist and antagonist and that the mechanisms underlying these effects are likely to be central (brain) in nature.

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.
