Stimulation of 3H-norepinephrine release by trifluoperazine from rat pineal glands.

Abstract:

:Trifluoperazine (5-200 microM) stimulated the release of 3H-NE from isolated whole pineal glands in a dose dependent manner. Trifluoperazine-induced release was not dependent on extracellular Ca++, whereas 60 mM K+-evoked release was attenuated in the presence of EGTA and zero Ca++ Krebs. 60 mM K+ and 50 microM trifluoperazine produced an additive effect on 3H-NE release. Clonidine (5 microM) significantly reduced trifluoperazine-induced release by approximately 50% in the presence of Ca++, and in its absence, clonidine significantly attenuated the trifluoperazine response by 42%. Thus trifluoperazine may be acting upon the alpha 2 receptor or intracellular stores of Ca++. These intracellular interactions remain for further study.
