Abstract excerpt

Endogenous levels of tryptophan (TRP), serotonin (5-HT), 5-hydroxyindol acetic acid (5-HIAA), noradrenaline (NA) and dopamine (DA), were measured in the brain-stem and anterior regions of C57BL and BALBc mice whose ages ranged from 1 day postnatal to 12 weeks. In C57BL mice levels of NA were foun...
