For the release experiments synaptosomes were prelabelled with [14C]-DA and [3H]-5-HT, respectively, and superfused with physiological and potassium enriched (5C mM) solutions. Low doses of LSD (0.1 and 0.5 mg/kg i.p.) induced a dose-dependent inhibition of the DA-release and an increase of the DA-uptake, respectively. LSD inhibited both the release and the uptake of 5 HT significantly. The results are discussed with respect to a reliable characterization of the in vivo induced effects of LSD on the isolated synaptosomes.
