Abstract
Pretreatment with the MAO-inhibitors iproniazid, clorgyline, or deprenyl abolishes the effects of LSD on the conditioned avoidance response (CAR) in rats. The effects of serotonin (5-HT) and 5-methoxytryptamine (5-MT) are greatly potentiated by these substances. Brain levels of LSD are not affected by MAO inhibition whereas levels of 5-HT and 5-MT are significantly elevated. It is postulated that the decreased behavioral response to LSD is the result of 'MAO inhibitor-induced' changes whereas the increased response of 5-HT and 5-MT results from increased brain levels of these compounds.
