Dopamine D1 and D2 antagonist effects on response likelihood and duration.

چکیده
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) antagonist R(+)-7-chloro-8-hydroxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine hydrochloride (SCH23390; 0, 0.04, 0.08, or 0.16 mg/kg) and D2/D3 antagonist 3,5-dichloro-N-(1-ethylpyrrolidin-2-ylmethyl)-2-hydroxy-6-methoxybenzamide (+)-tartrate salt (raclopride; 0, 0.2, or 0.4 mg/kg) on the likelihood and duration of a cued Pavlovian approach and a cued operant lever-press response. While the high doses of the D1 and D2 antagonists produced similar levels of overall locomotor suppression, only the D2 antagonist increased the duration of time that animals' heads remained in the food compartment during both Pavlovian and operant task performance. In contrast, D1 antagonist SCH23390 decreased the proportion of trials in which animals executed both the Pavlovian approach and operant lever-press, while raclopride did not. The results suggest that D2 receptor blockade preferentially increases response duration, and, under the simple discrete-trial procedures employed here, D1 receptor blockade preferential reduces Pavlovian and operant response likelihood.

Background and purpose : Dextromethorphan is a non-competitive NMDÂ receptor antagonist in the glutamatergic system with over 47 years of clinical usage experience as an over-the counter antitussive drug. We previously demonstrated that dextromethorphan modulates the pain threshold in the mouse acetic acid (0.6%,intraperitonealy)-induced writhing test (a tonic and chemical model for chronic p...
متن کاملModulatory Effects of Dopamine D2 Receptors on Spreading Depression in Rat Somatosensory Neocortex
Introduction: Spreading depression (SD) is a propagating wave of depolarization followed by depression of the neuroglial activities and can modulate extracellular dopamine concentrations in the neocortex. It has been shown that the dopaminergic system plays a role in migraine. SD has been suggested as a critical phenomenon in the pathophysiology of migraine. The aim of this study was to investi...
متن کاملLateral hypothalamus chemical stimulation-induced antinociception was attenuated by injection of dopamine D1 and D2 receptor antagonists in the ventral tegmental area
Introduction: Stimulation or inactivation of the lateral hypothalamus (LH) produces antinociception. Studies showed a role for the ventral tegmental area (VTA) in the antinociception induced by LH chemical stimulation through the orexinergic receptors. In this study, we assessed the role of intra-VTA dopamine D1 and D2 receptors in antinociceptive effects of cholinergic agonist, carbachol, m...
