Neurotransmitter transporters play an important role in maintaining synaptic homeostasis and in the actions of many drugs. Utilizing a technique for measuring the kinetics (synthesis, degradation, and half-life) of the dopamine transporter (DAT) protein in the rat striatum and nucleus accumbens, we have investigated the effects of systemic administration of dopamine receptor agonists and antago...
Accumulated evidence suggests that dopamine and dopamine D1 agonists can activate phospholipase C in both brain and peripheral tissue. The receptor that mediates the hydrolysis of phosphoinositides has not been identified. The cloned dopamine D1A receptor that is generally thought to be linked to adenylyl cyclase, has also been proposed to couple to phospholipase C. However, a number of studies...
Extinction is the learned inhibition of retrieval. Recently it was shown that a brief exposure to a novel environment enhances the extinction of contextual fear in rats, an effect explainable by a synaptic tagging-and-capture process. Here we examine whether this also happens with the extinction of another fear-motivated task, inhibitory avoidance (IA), and whether it depends on dopamine acting...
The effects of dopamine (DA) and the psychostimulants cocaine and amphetamine on excitatory transmission in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) were examined in rat NAc slices using both extracellular-field and whole-cell patch-clamp recording. DA, cocaine, and amphetamine reversibly reduced the excitatory synaptic responses (EPSPs/EPSCs) elicited by stimulation of prelimbic cortical afferents. DA and ...
The effect of potassium depolarization on dopamine D1 receptor activity in bovine retina was investigated. Preincubation of bovine retinas in buffer containing high KCl (56 mM) as compared to a low KCl control buffer resulted in a significant decrease in dopamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity with no change in basal or GTP-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. The apparent Vmax for dop...
GABA neurons in the substantia nigra pars reticulata receive input from GABAergic fibers originating in the forebrain. The role of dopaminergic D1 receptors located on these fibers was investigated using tight-seal whole-cell recordings from visually identified pars reticulata neurons of rat substantia nigra slices. Nondopaminergic pars reticulata neurons were characterized by their electrophys...
OBJECTIVE Recent animal PET research has led to the development of PET scanners for small animals. A planar positron imaging system (PPIS) was newly developed to study physiological function in small animals and plants in recent years. To examine the usefulness of PPIS for functional study in small animals, we examined dopaminergic images of mouse striata in MPTP-induced parkinsonism. METHODS...
We investigated the effect of methamphetamine (MA) injections on the circadian organization of behavior and individual tissues in the mouse. Scheduled, daily injections of MA resulted in anticipatory activity, with an increase in locomotor activity immediately prior to the time of injection. Daily MA also shifted the peak time of PER2 expression in the liver, pituitary, and salivary glands. It ...
Experimentally induced and parkinsonian disruptions in dopamine (DA) transmission are associated with motor abnormalities that include a reduced likelihood of behavioral response initiation and an increased duration of executed responses. Here we investigated the dopamine receptor subtypes involved in regulating these two aspects of behavior. We examined the effects of D1 family (D1/D5) antagon...
Background: Nucleus accumbens (NAc) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) dopaminergic and glutamatergic systems are involved in regulating of locomotor activity behaviors. This study has investigated the interaction of NAc shell dopaminergic system and prelimbic glutamatergic systems in regulating locomotor activity and related parameters. Methods: The aim of this study was the effect the drugs injectio...
