Experiments were performed in conscious dogs, in order to study the possibility of dopaminergic or opioid modulation of the osmolality-regulated release of AVP. Hypertonic saline (20%), infused during a period of 2 h at a rate of 0.03 ml.kg-1.min-1, induced a significant AVP response, which was not influenced by prior administration of bromocriptine or naloxone. Data presented in this report, therefore, are not in support of a dopaminergic or opioid modulation of the osmolality-regulated AVP release in dogs. The results demonstrate a great consistency in individual plasma osmolality-plasma AVP relationships, next to a large inter-individual variation.

D011954 Receptors, Dopamine Cell-surface proteins that bind dopamine with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Dopamine Receptors,Dopamine Receptor,Receptor, Dopamine
D011957 Receptors, Opioid Cell membrane proteins that bind opioids and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells. The endogenous ligands for opioid receptors in mammals include three families of peptides, the enkephalins, endorphins, and dynorphins. The receptor classes include mu, delta, and kappa receptors. Sigma receptors bind several psychoactive substances, including certain opioids, but their endogenous ligands are not known.
