A series of rigid analogs of apomorphine lacking aromatic hydroxyl substitutents were evaluated for dopaminergic properties. Three compounds, N-methyl-N-propyl-2-aminotetralin (Me-Pr-2-AT), N-N-dipropyl-2-aminotetralin (Di-pr-2-AT) and N,N-dipropyl-2-aminoindane (Di-Pr-2-AI) induced emesis in dogs, contralateral circling in unilaterally lesioned rats, and inhibited prolactin secretion. The induced circling responses, however, were attenuated by prior treatment with alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine methyl ester (AMPTME) and the compounds were weak inhibitors of 3-H-dopamine binding in calf caudate homogenates. The possibility that these agents may be metabolically activated in vivo is discussed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008781 Methyltyrosines A group of compounds that are methyl derivatives of the amino acid TYROSINE.
D011388 Prolactin A lactogenic hormone secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). It is a polypeptide of approximately 23 kD. Besides its major action on lactation, in some species prolactin exerts effects on reproduction, maternal behavior, fat metabolism, immunomodulation and osmoregulation. Prolactin receptors are present in the mammary gland, hypothalamus, liver, ovary, testis, and prostate.

D004285 Dogs The domestic dog, Canis familiaris, comprising about 400 breeds, of the carnivore family CANIDAE. They are worldwide in distribution and live in association with people. (Walker's Mammals of the World, 5th ed, p1065) Canis familiaris,Dog
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.

D004639 Emetics Agents that cause vomiting. They may act directly on the gastrointestinal tract, bringing about emesis through local irritant effects, or indirectly, through their effects on the chemoreceptor trigger zone in the postremal area near the medulla.

D006220 Haloperidol A phenyl-piperidinyl-butyrophenone that is used primarily to treat SCHIZOPHRENIA and other PSYCHOSES. It is also used in schizoaffective disorder, DELUSIONAL DISORDERS, ballism, and TOURETTE SYNDROME (a drug of choice) and occasionally as adjunctive therapy in INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY and the chorea of HUNTINGTON DISEASE. It is a potent antiemetic and is used in the treatment of intractable HICCUPS. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p279) Haldol
