Abstract:
:1. The present study was designed to investigate tolerance to several pharmacological effects of apomorphine. 2. Changes in blood pressure, heart rate, plasma noradrenaline levels, rectal temperature, respiratory rate and retching plus vomiting were compared after administration of apomorphine (200 micrograms kg-1, i.v. as a bolus) or saline at different time intervals (30, 120 and 720 min) in four groups of chloralose-anaesthetized dogs. 3. The first administration of apomorphine induced a significant decrease in blood pressure and rectal temperature, a marked rise in heart rate with no change in noradrenaline plasma levels or respiratory rate. Emesis occurred in 71% of the animals. 4. A second administration of apomorphine 30 min later failed to modify blood pressure or heart rate. In contrast, the magnitude of apomorphine-induced changes in blood pressure and heart rate was similar to that observed after the first administration when apomorphine was given 120 or 720 min later. 5. The apomorphine-induced decrease in rectal temperature evoked by a second dose of apomorphine was less marked when given 30 and 120 min after the first dose and unchanged when given 720 min later. 6. The number of animals exhibiting retching and vomiting was lower when apomorphine was reinjected after 30 min than when the time between two successive injections of apomorphine was 120 or 720 min. 7. These results show that tolerance to apomorphine involves its cardiovascular, hypothermic and emetic effects. The time course of tolerance to repeated injections of apomorphine is longer for its hypothermic than for its hypotensive or emetic effects. This suggests a tissue-specific regulation of D2 dopamine receptors to repeated injections of apomorphine.
