We report that acute quinpirole injection reduces BDNF mRNA levels in the rat hippocampus both at 2 and 6 h after the administration. These results suggest that the neurotrophin expression may be inhibited by situations involving dopaminergic overactivity.

Abstract

We report that acute quinpirole injection reduces BDNF mRNA levels in the rat hippocampus both at 2 and 6 h after the administration. These results suggest that the neurotrophin expression may be inhibited by situations involving dopaminergic overactivity.
