Conjugated dopamine in superfusates of slices of rat striatum.

abstract：:The pH dependency of the binding of ligands to adenosine A2a receptors in rat striatal membranes was examined. For those agonists sensitive to adenosine deaminase a solubilised membrane preparation was used. A two- to fourfold increase in affinity was observed for CGS-21680, 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine, adenosine, ...
