| pubmed-article:3632648 | pubmed:abstractText | Dopamine release from mice telencephalon slices was investigated following immobilization or hypobaric hypoxia exposure during periods of social isolation of different length which itself affects dopamine release in a characteristic manner. Isolation initially results in a decreasing release, which is compensated at the end by adaptive processes. The decrease of dopamine release induced by immobilization is highly dependent on the foregoing isolation. On the other hand, a hypoxia-induced decrease of release always dominates the results. Adaptive processes in consequence of social isolation are supposed to be important in relation to immobilization effects but not to hypoxia-induced changes. | lld:pubmed |
