Finally, the 5-HT2C receptor antagonist ritanserine, the CCKA receptor antagonist devazepide, the CCKB receptor antagonist L-365.260 and the strychnine-insensitive glycine site antagonist 7-Cl-kynurenic acid were without effect on the behaviours in this paradigm using single doses.
The benzodiazepine receptor agonists chlordiazepoxide, diazepam and alprazolam, the 5-HT1A receptor agonists flesinoxan and ipsapirone and the 5-HT uptake inhibitor clomipramine selectively (no effect on crossings) reduced SAP.

Potentiation of synaptic inhibition by the serotonin 1A receptor agonist 8-hydroxydipropylaminotetralin (8-OH-DPAT; 50 microM) restored rhythmic activity only when given shortly after strychnine and bicuculline applications.
