Asencio, M.; Delaquerrière, B.; Cassels Niven, Bruce; Speisky Cosoy, Hernán; Comoy, E.; Protais, P. (1999)The aporphine alkaloids boldine and glaucine have been reported to show 'neuroleptic-like' actions in mice, suggesting that they may act as dopamine antagonists. We have found that in vitro boldine displaces specific ...
