Abstract
Pretreatment with reserpine, α-MT, or PGE1 reduced or abolished salivation responses to d-amphetamine. Reserpine also abolished salivation responses to l-norepinephrine after cocaine, but not to the directly acting amine, l-isoproterenol. PGE1 was most effective in reducing salivation responses to d-amphetamine, less effective against l-isoproterenol, and ineffective against l-norepinephrine after cocaine. Elevated ambient temperature prevented the effects of reserpine pretreatment on salivation responses to d-amphetamine. Reserpine pretreatment likewise only reduced, but failed to block, heat-induced salivation. High body temperatures favor while low body temperatures antagonize adrenergic salivation responses, especially those to d-amphetamine.
