The effect of morphine withdrawal on the catecholaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmitter system in rat brain
 Nováková, Daniela ; Novotný, Jiří (advisor) ; Drastichová, Zdeňka (referee)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to study the effect of morphine withdrawal on catecholaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmitter system in rat brain. Theoretical part of this thesis summarizes basic information known about principles of neurotransmission with focus on the catecholaminergic and serotonergic system, metabolism of its components, their signaling, relevant receptors, their distribution, and especially their effect on morphine dependence and subsequent withdrawal. It also summarizes briefly principles of opioid signaling and outlines the findings yet known about neurochemical analysis of the transmitter systems mentioned above. Experimental part of this thesis is focused on the optimization of the method of high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection and its subsequent use to determine basic components of catecholaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmitter system in samples of different part of brain of rats affected by intraperitoneal administration of morphine sulphate, and its subsequent withdrawal and correspondings unaffected control rats. The expression of selected catecholaminergic receptors in identical samples is also detected. This thesis succesfully implements gradient into the originally isocratic method of high performance liquid chromatography...
