Inhibition by talipexole, a thiazolo-azepine derivative, of dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area.

Abstract:

:A microiontophoretic study using rats anesthetized with chloral hydrate and immobilized with gallamine triethiodide was carried out to compare the effect of talipexole (B-HT 920 CL2:2-amino-6-allyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-thiazolo [4,5-d]-azepine-dihydrochloride), a dopamine autoreceptor agonist, on dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to non-dopaminergic neurons in the VTA. VTA neurons were classified into two types according to the responses to antidromic stimulation of the nucleus accumbens (Acc): type I neurons with a long spike latency (8.69 +/- 0.24 msec) upon Acc stimulation and low spontaneous firing rate (6.80 +/- 1.34/sec), and type II neurons with a short latency (2.76 +/- 0.20 msec) and high spontaneous firing rate (26.77 +/- 7.05/sec), probably corresponding to dopaminergic and non-dopaminergic neurons, respectively. In type I neurons, microiontophoretic application of talipexole and dopamine inhibited antidromic spike generation elicited by Acc stimulation, and talipexole-induced inhibition was antagonized by domperidone (dopamine D-2 antagonist). In type II neurons, however, the antidromic spikes were not affected by either talipexole or dopamine. Furthermore, spontaneous firing was also inhibited by iontophoretically applied talipexole and dopamine in most type I neurons, but rarely affected by either drug. Inhibitory effects of talipexole were antagonized by domperidone. These results suggest that talipexole acts on dopamine D-2 receptors, thereby inhibiting the dopaminergic neurons in the VTA.
