Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Sequential changes in the electron spin resonance (ESR) signal intensity of nitroxide radical perfused in the striatum of rats treated with haloperidol (HPD) were evaluated using a 700-MHz ESR spectrometer. Nitroxide radical was perfused in the striatum by in vivo microdialysis. Nitroxide used was 3-carbamoyl-2,2,5, 5-tetramethylpyrrolidine-1-oxyl. Following 6-h perfusion of the nitroxide radical by dialysis at the rate of 2 microl/min through the radical introducer that had been stereotaxically implanted in the rat's striatum, HPD or saline was injected intraperitoneally into the rats in the resonator. The sequential changes in the ESR spectrum of the nitroxide radical were then evaluated. Spectra were successively observed in all animals. The half-life, which was estimated on the basis of the exponential decay in signal intensity, was used as a parameter of decay rate of the ESR signal intensity of nitroxide radical. The half-life in the rats injected with HPD was significantly longer than that in controls. This finding suggests that the reducing ability of the striatal extracellular space of a rat acutely treated with HPD was decreased in comparison with that of the control.
