A role for D2 but not D1 dopamine receptors in the cross-sensitization between amphetamine and salt appetite.

چکیده
A history of sodium depletions has been found to potentiate the psychomotor as well as the rewarding effects of amphetamine, an indirect dopamine agonist. The present experiments were conducted to further define the role of dopamine receptor subtypes in this cross-sensitization effect. Rats with a history of sodium depletions were found to display psychomotor sensitization to a D2 but not a D1 direct agonist. Cross-sensitization between salt appetite and amphetamine was found to be blocked by a D2 but not a D1 antagonist. Together, these results implicate D2 but not D1 receptor function in the cross-sensitization seen after sodium depletions.

D1 dopamine receptor activation is necessary for the induction of sensitization by amphetamine in the ventral tegmental area.
Repeated intermittent exposure to amphetamine produces long-term enhancements in the ability of this drug to produce locomotion and increase extracellular dopamine (DA) in the nucleus accumbens (NAcc). Three experiments were conducted to evaluate the role played by D1 DA receptors in the production of these changes in response to amphetamine. Rats were preexposed to amphetamine, alone or with a...
متن کاملThe Blockade of D1/D2-Like Dopamine Receptors within the Dentate Gyrus of Hippocampus Decreased the Reinstatement of Morphine-Extinguished Conditioned Place Preference in Rats
Introduction: The hippocampus (HIP), the primary brain structure related to learning and memory, receives sparse but comprehensive dopamine innervations and contains dopamine D1/D2-like receptors. It is demonstrated that dopamine receptors in dentate gyrus (DG) region of HIP have a remarkable function in spatial reward processing. Much less is known about the involvement of HIP and its D1...
متن کاملP141: Role of Dopamine in Anxiety Behavior
The mesolimbic dopamine (DA) system contains both D1-like and D2-like receptors, has been connected to control of locomotor behavior. An apparent role for D1 and D2 receptors throughout the mesolimbic system in the alteration of locomotor behavior has been demonstrated in pharmacological studies. The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is comprised of a core and a shell subregion, which is a component of t...
متن کاملA review of the role of dopamine receptors and novel therapeutic strategies in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
Lung cancer is a very aggressive and most deadly cancer in both men and women. Lung cancer is divided into two types of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC is divided into 3 subgroups: adenocarcinoma (AC), squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC) and large cell carcinoma (LCC). Dopamine is involved in controlling motions, cognition, emotions, memory and reward mech...
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...
