Dopaminergic D-1 receptors: essential role in morphine-induced hypermotility. 1987

Administration of morphine HCl (20 mg/kg SC) to male C57Bl/6 mice evoked hypermotility. Pretreatment with low doses of the specific D-1 antagonist SCH 23390 (0.006, 0.012, 0.025 mg/kg SC) dose-dependently inhibited morphine-evoked hypermotility. The results suggest that dopamine is the essential mediator of opiate hypermotility and indicate that D-1 receptors play an important role in this effect.

D008810 Mice, Inbred C57BL One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases.
