lysergic acid diethylamide and Myoclonic Jerk

lysergic acid diethylamide has been researched along with Myoclonic Jerk in 4 studies

Lysergic Acid Diethylamide: Semisynthetic derivative of ergot (Claviceps purpurea). It has complex effects on serotonergic systems including antagonism at some peripheral serotonin receptors, both agonist and antagonist actions at central nervous system serotonin receptors, and possibly effects on serotonin turnover. It is a potent hallucinogen, but the mechanisms of that effect are not well understood.
lysergic acid diethylamide : An ergoline alkaloid arising from formal condensation of lysergic acid with diethylamine.

"A myoclonic syndrome consisting of tremor, myoclonus, and seizures was produced following the systemic administration of 5-hydroxytryptophan to adult rats previously given intracisternal injections of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine and systemic desmethylimipramine, but not in their controls."3.65Myoclonus after 5-hydroxytryptophan in rats with lesions of indoleamine neurons in the central nervous system.
