The present paper reports both functional and biochemical evidence for the presence of dopamine D1 receptors in the bovine ciliary body. Dopamine (DA) and dopamine D1 agonists (such as SKF 38,393) but not D2 agonists (such as LY 141,865) produced a concentration-related decrease in the tone induced by a maximally active concentration of carbachol (1 x 10(-4)-5 x 10(-4) M). The maximal relaxation obtained was 100% of the carbachol response using 10(-5) M dopamine or 5 x 10(-6) M SKF 38,393. SCH 23,390, a D1 antagonist, but not (-)-sulpiride, antagonized the effect of DA and SKF 38,393. In accordance with the functional data, radioreceptor binding experiments revealed the existence of a high affinity saturable [3H]SCH 23,390 binding to membranes prepared from ciliary body (Bmax: 344 fmol mg protein-1; Kd: 0.87 nM). The binding was specifically displaced by SCH 23,390, dopamine and dopamine D1 agonists, but not by norepinephrine, D2 agonists, or antagonists such as LY 141,865 and sulpiride. No specific binding was found when using dopamine D2 ligands, such as tritiated spiroperidol.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries

D002924	Ciliary Body	A ring of tissue extending from the scleral spur to the ora serrata of the RETINA. It consists of the uveal portion and the epithelial portion. The ciliary muscle is in the uveal portion and the ciliary processes are in the epithelial portion.

D004298	Dopamine	One of the catecholamine NEUROTRANSMITTERS in the brain. It is derived from TYROSINE and is the precursor to NOREPINEPHRINE and EPINEPHRINE. Dopamine is a major transmitter in the extrapyramidal system of the brain, and important in regulating movement. A family of receptors (RECEPTORS, DOPAMINE) mediate its action.
