Abstract:
:The ability of specific dopamine (DA) receptor agonists and antagonists to modify the release and metabolism of DA in the ventrolateral striatum of awake rats was assessed using in vivo microdialysis. The specific DA D2 receptor antagonist, raclopride (0.1, 0.5 and 2.0 mg/kg, i.p.), dose-dependently increased release of DA and levels of the metabolites DOPAC and HVA, while the D2 receptor agonist, quinpirole (0.03, 0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg), decreased levels of DA, DOPAC and HVA. The DA D1 receptor antagonist, SCH23390 [(R + (+)-8-chloro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-methyl-5-phenyl- 1H-3-benzazepin-7-ol) (0.01, 0.05 and 0.25 mg/kg), produced an increase in DA, DOPAC and HVA but of a lesser magnitude than raclopride. The D1 agonist SKF38393 (1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-(1H)-3-benzazepine-7,8-diol) (1.0, 3.0 and 10.0 mg/kg) failed to affect the release of metabolism of DA at any dose. These results support previous findings that activation of D2 receptors has greater control over in vivo DA function, than drugs specifically affecting D1 receptors.
