amitriptyline and Decerebrate Posturing

amitriptyline has been researched along with Decerebrate Posturing in 10 studies

Amitriptyline: Tricyclic antidepressant with anticholinergic and sedative properties. It appears to prevent the re-uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin at nerve terminals, thus potentiating the action of these neurotransmitters. Amitriptyline also appears to antagonize cholinergic and alpha-1 adrenergic responses to bioactive amines.
amitriptyline : An organic tricyclic compound that is 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d][7]annulene substituted by a 3-(dimethylamino)propylidene group at position 5.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Amitriptyline (AMI) was studied in rats snd mice in order to find out whether it had a central antiserotonin activity, previously demonstrated for doxepin - a compound chemically related to AMI."1.26Central antiserotonin action of amitriptyline. ( Lewandowska, A; Maj, J; Rawtów, A, 1979)
