Abstract
The effects of metal ions and drugs [amitryptyline, protriptyline, imipramine, trimipramine, phentolamine, haloperidol and pemoline] which inhibit ATPase activities of synaptosomes were determined on the lipid peroxidation activity of synaptosomes. While some metal ions and drugs appear to influence the ATPase activities through a mechanism involving lipid peroxidation, others affect the enzymes directly or by other mechanisms.
