Abstract

Chronic administration of haloperidol to Wistar rats induces specific changes in protein metabolism at the cortical-subcortical level (sensorimotor cortex—caudate nucleus), in associative and integrative triggering neurons, and in the cytoplasm and nucleus of the same neuron, judging from the state of structural proteins and aminopeptidase activity. Tuftsin reduces these changes only in the sensorimotor cortex.
