Resumen

Ratas inyectadas con diferentes dosis de prenylamina (gluconato) presentaron una marcada disminución de la actividad motora espontánea y de los niveles de noradrenalina en el hipotálamo, tálamo y corteza cerebral, pero no en el tegmento del mesencéfalo. Se detectó una estrecha relación entre la caída de la concentración de NA hipotalámica y la disminución de la actividad espontanea con las diferentes dosis de prenylamina empleadas.
