Definition:
(a.) Incapable of being comprehended; incomprehensible.
Example Sentences:
Cataleptic
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to, or resembling, catalepsy; affected with catalepsy; as, a cataleptic fit.
Example Sentences:
(1) Loss of the righting response was not associated with any gross reduction in skeletal muscle tone (inclined screen and wire grip tests) and it was proposed that the animals were not anaesthetized but instead could be placed on their backs because flurazepam had enhanced the cataleptic effect of THC.
(2) The PG F2a- and haloperidol-induced cataleptic behaviors were almost abolished by the thermal coagulation of bilateral striatum where the dopaminergic and cholinergic link is found.
(3) Metaphit pretreatment increased the cataleptic effects induced by cumulative doses of PCP-type drugs (i.e., PCP, ketamine and m-amino PCP) and of drugs that have PCP-like actions (i.e., dexoxadrol, LY 154716 and cyclazocine).
(4) The effects of several neurotransmitters on prostaglandin (PG) D2-induced cataleptic behavior in rats were investigated by the high bar test.
(5) These results suggest that the antagonistic interaction of MJ-13980 at central DA receptors is not associated with the production of cataleptic behavior.
(6) Bilateral electrolytic lesions of caudate nucleus were observed to potentiate the cataleptic response, and to prevent the muscular rigidity produced by intracerebroventricular injection or infusion of dermorphin.
(7) The tetrapeptide produced obvious cataleptic status with plastic rigidity of skeletal muscles.
(8) The incidences of cataleptic behavior were 20% and 100% at doses of 2 nmol and 50 nmol of PG D2, respectively.

(10) Therefore, the bandage does indeed appear to inhibit the kinesthetic mechanisms that maintain head support in labyrinthectomized cataleptic rats.
(11) It was found that the increased cataleptic action of thioridazine (20 mg per kg), during radiation disease was inhibited ater metanabol premedication.
(12) In chronic experiments on cats the background activity of 272 neurons of the ventrolateral thalamic nucleus was registered extracellularly before and after the systemic injection of haloperidol and droperidol (neuroleptics) in cataleptic doses.
(13) Depletion of forebrain noradrenaline by intracerebral injection of 4 micrograms of 6-hydroxydopamine into the fibres of the dorsal noradrenergic bundle was found to block the cataleptic effects of the muscarinic cholinergic agonist arecoline and to potentiate the locomotor stimulant effects of the muscarinic cholinergic blocker scopolamine.
(14) Although both preparations exhibited exaggerated bracing responses when pushed, the LH rats acted in a non-cataleptic manner when pushed backward by the head; they retreated backward.
(15) The haloperidol-induced cataleptic behavior was reduced dose-dependently after oral treatment with aspirin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor.
(16) Opiate B-receptors are responsible for the analgesic, antitussive, cataleptic, respiratory depressant and hypotensive effects of the opiates.
(17) Enhancement of the opioid cataleptic response was not due to changes in the availability of the drugs in the brain.
