Abstract:   (4257 Views)
In the present study, the effects of caerulein and CCK receptor antagonist< on tolerance to the anti-pentylenetetrazol activity of diazepam has been studied. Different doses of diazepam (20, 30, 35, 40 and 50 mg/kg) were administered intraperitoneally for a period of 6 days in order to induce tolerance to diazepam. 48 h after the last dose of diazepam, a test dose of diazepam was tested for antipentylenetetrazol activity. When animals were treated with caerulein or the CCK receptor antagonists MK -329 and L-365,260, only L-365,260 reversed the tolerance to diazepam. It may be concluded that CCK-B receptor mechanisms may interact with tolerance induced by diazepam.
