A role for preoptic glutamate in the regulation of male reproductive behaviorJuan M Dominguez
Department of Psychology, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas, USA
Neuroscientist 15:11-9. 2009..This neurochemical, anatomical, and behavioral evidence points to a key role of preoptic glutamate in the regulation of sexual behavior in males. The implications of these findings are discussed...- Serotonin impairs copulation and attenuates ejaculation-induced glutamate activity in the medial preoptic areaJuan M Dominguez
Department of Psychology and Institute for Neuroscience, The University of Texas at Austin, 78712, USA
Behav Neurosci 124:554-7. 2010..However, reverse dialysis of 5-HT into the MPOA impaired ejaculatory ability and attenuated glutamate release. Implications of these results for impairment of sexual behavior that results from administration of SSRIs are discussed... - Preoptic glutamate facilitates male sexual behaviorJuan M Dominguez
Department of Psychology, Neuroscience Program, Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida 32306-1270, USA
J Neurosci 26:1699-703. 2006.... - Assessing the role of the medial preoptic area in ethanol-induced hypothermiaAshley T Westerman
Department of Psychology, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX, USA
Neurosci Lett 475:25-8. 2010..These findings indicate that ethanol increases neural activity in the MPOA, but this increased activity does not influence ethanol-induced changes in core body temperature... - Sexual experience increases nitric oxide synthase in the medial preoptic area of male ratsJuan M Dominguez
Department of Psychology, Florida State University, USA
Behav Neurosci 120:1389-94. 2006..Experience-induced increases in NOS in the MPOA may be one mechanism through which sexual experience facilitates sexual behavior in male rats... - The impact of early environmental rearing condition on the discriminative stimulus effects and Fos expression induced by cocaine in adult male and female ratsStephen J Kohut
Psychopharmacology Laboratory, Department of Psychology, American University, Washington, DC 20016, USA
Psychopharmacology (Berl) 203:383-97. 2009..A number of environmental manipulations, including maternal separation (MS), have been shown to alter behavioral responses to drugs of abuse... - The antiepileptic primidone impairs male rat sexual behaviorAshley T Westerman
Department of Psychology, American University, Washington, DC 20016, USA
Pharmacol Biochem Behav 93:160-4. 2009..Together, these data indicate that primidone impairs male sexual activity and suggest that these impairments result primarily from changes in erectile function and not changes to mechanisms mediating motivation... - An NMDA antagonist impairs copulation and the experience-induced enhancement of male sexual behavior in the ratWhitney S Powell
Department of Psychology, University at Buffalo, The State University of New York, 14260, USA
Behav Neurosci 117:69-75. 2003..These data suggest that stimulation of NMDA receptors enhances sexual performance immediately and mediates the experience-induced enhancement of subsequent copulatory behavior... - Morphine-induced place conditioning in Fischer and Lewis rats: acquisition and dose-response in a fully biased procedureCatherine M Davis
Psychopharmacology Laboratory, Department of Psychology, American University, Washington, DC 20016, USA
Pharmacol Biochem Behav 86:516-23. 2007..Additional implications for the Fischer-Lewis model of drug abuse and the utility of CPP acquisition procedures are discussed...
