Abstract
Effects of the selective D2-receptors antagonist clebopride on behavior of adult males rats was studied in such tests as sucrose consumption, “open field”, “elevated plus maze” and “complex maze” with a food reinforcement. The drug was injected in small doses (0,2 and 0,4 mg/kg) chronically within two weeks. It was shown that clebopride may have an influence on emotionally-motivational state of experimental animals, on the one hand, causing depressive-like changes, and on the other — improve learning ability and research behavior. A variety of consequences of D2-antagonist action is caused, apparently, by a competition of it’s post- and presynaptic effects.
