- TITLE: Behavioral characterization of alpha-ethyltryptamine, a
- tryptamine derivative with MDMA-like properties in rats.
- SOURCE: Psychopharmacology (Berl) (QGI), 1993; 113 (2): 284-7

- my abstract: Some users report that AET is like MDMA. The DEA's made it
- schedule I. Doses of 5, 10, 20 mg/kg in rats increased
- locomotor activity as stimulants and entactogens do and
- hallucinogens don't. It also decreased investigatory behavior
- as entactogens and hallucinogens do. Also, pretreatment with
- Prozac lessened the locomotor activity increase. Therefore AET
- could be an entactogen.

- TITLE: MDMA-like stimulus effects of alpha-ethyltryptamine and the
- alpha-ethyl homolog of DOM.
- SOURCE: Pharmacol Biochem Behav (P3Q), 1993 Oct; 46 (2): 459-62
-
- my abstract: Going from alpha-methyl to alpha-ethyl messes up hallucinogens
- but doesn't affect entactogens too much. Can alpha-ethyl
- analogs of known hallucinogens DOM and alpha-methyltryptamines
- fool MDMA-trained rats? They can! And amphetamine-trained
- rats care for them only somewhat compared to amphetamine, so
- AET and alpha-EH DOM might be entactogens, not just
- stimulants. Pretty weird stuff.

- TITLE: Reduction in brain serotonin markers by alpha-
- ethyltryptamine (Monase).
- SOURCE: Eur J Pharmacol (EN6), 1991 Jul 23; 200 (1): 187-90
-
- my abstract: AET is a monoamine releasing agent like MDMA and PCA. Those
- are somewhat neurotoxic, so maybe AET is too. Rats were dosed
- eight times with 30 mg/kg subcutaneous AET acetate.
- Investigation of their brains one week later showed decreased
- 5-HT, 5-HIAA, and 5-HT uptake sites in the frontal cortex and
- decreased 5-HT and 5-HIAA in the hippocampus. AET might be
- neurotoxic like MDMA and PCA.

- my abstract: The original abstract doesn't say much and I haven't tracked
- down the original yet. Sorry!
