    Summary
    Desglycinamide9[Arg8]vasopressin (DG-AVP), prolyl-leucyl-glycinamide (PLG) and oxytocin did not interfere with the behavioral responses induced by the higher doses of apomorphine.
    2 context sentences
    Summary · context
    Low doses of this drug induce hypoactivity of the animals, while higher doses result in hyperactivity and stereotyped sniffing.
    Summary · context
    The interaction between peptides related to neurohypophyseal hormones and brain dopaminergic systems was studied by investigating in rats the effect of these peptides on behavioral changes induced by graded doses of the specific dopamine agonist apomorphine.
