Abstract

Phenylethylamine, which induces mounting behavior in naive adult male rats when administered chronically, was shown to selectively raise brain norepinephrine levels in the medial preoptic nucleus, a region known to be implicated in the regulation of sexual behaviors. It is suggested that the catecholamine alteration is a secondary response to the primary influence of phenylethylamine on the preoptic nucleus.
