The effects of dopamine receptor agents on naloxone-induced jumping behaviour in morphine-dependent mice.

Abstract：

:In the present study, the effects of dopamine receptor agonists and antagonists on naloxone-induced jumping in morphine-dependent mice were examined. Mice were rendered dependent as described in the methods section. Naloxone was injected to elicit jumping (as withdrawal sign). The first group received dopamine receptor drugs before naloxone injection to test the effects of the drugs on the expression of jumping. Administration of the dopamine D1/D2 receptor agonist, apomorphine (0.25, 0.5 and 1 mg/kg), decreased jumping, but not diarrhoea, induced by naloxone. The effect of apomorphine on jumping was reduced by the dopamine D2 receptor antagonist, sulpiride. The dopamine D2 receptor agonist, quinpirole (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 mg/kg), increased jumping, while it decreased diarrhoea in mice. Different doses of sulpiride did not alter jumping, but one dose of the drug (12.5 mg/kg) decreased jumping. Neither the dopamine D1 receptor agonist, SKF38393 (1-phenyl-7,8-dihydroxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine hydrochloride; 8 and 16 mg/kg), nor the dopamine D1 receptor antagonist, SCH23390 (R-(+)-8-chloro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-methyl-5-phenyl-1H-benzazepine-7-ol maleate; 5, 10 and 25 mg/kg), altered jumping, but they decreased diarrhoea. The second group of animals received the drugs during the development of dependence. Administration of quinpirole (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 mg/kg), but not bromocriptine (4, 8 and 16 mg/kg), apomorphine (0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 mg/kg) or sulpiride (12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg) decreased naloxone-induced jumping and diarrhoea. A dose of SKF38393 (8 mg/kg) decreased jumping, while both SKF38393 (4 and 16 mg/kg) and SCH23390 (5 and 10 microg/kg) increased diarrhoea. It is concluded that activation of both dopamine D1 and D2 receptors may suppress naloxone-induced jumping in morphine-dependent mice, and that stimulation of dopamine D1 receptors during development of morphine dependence may increase diarrhoea through peripheral mechanism.
