Harmine reverses the inhibition of lordosis by the 5-HT2 antagonists pirenperone and ketanserin in the female rat.
The beta-carboline harmine was found to facilitate lordosis behavior in ovariectomized rats primed with estradiol benzoate. Moreover, harmine reversed the inhibition of lordosis by the serotonin type 2 (5-HT2) antagonists pirenperone and ketanserin in rats primed with estradiol benzoate and progesterone. These results suggest that harmine facilitates lordosis by enhancing activity at 5-HT2 receptors.
