In vivo dopamine receptor binding studies with a non-radioactively labeled agonist, dipropyl-5,6-ADTN. 1983

M G Feenstra, and H Rollema, and T B Mulder, and B H Westerink, and A S Horn

Evidence is presented that a low dose of peripherally administered N,N-dipropylamino-5,6-dihydroxytetralin (DiPr-5,6-ADTN) specifically labels dopamine (DA) receptors in rat brain. Concentrations of this potent DA receptor agonist were determined by a highly selective method using reversed phase liquid chromatography and amperometric detection. The binding characteristics satisfy all criteria regarding saturability, stereospecificity, regional distribution and relation with pharmacological effects that are associated with DA receptor interactions. A rough estimation of the density of binding sites in the striatum resulted in values of 60-70 pmol/g. Lesioning the nigrostriatal pathway does not significantly alter the amount of ligand bound, nor do pretreatments with serotonergic, alpha-adrenergic or beta-adrenergic antagonists. DiPr-5,6-ADTN has thus been shown to be a useful ligand for labeling central DA receptors and a powerful tool in the study of DA-ergic mechanisms.

D008784 Methysergide An ergot derivative that is a congener of LYSERGIC ACID DIETHYLAMIDE. It antagonizes the effects of serotonin in blood vessels and gastrointestinal smooth muscle, but has few of the properties of other ergot alkaloids. Methysergide is used prophylactically in migraine and other vascular headaches and to antagonize serotonin in the carcinoid syndrome.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002531 Cerebellum The part of brain that lies behind the BRAIN STEM in the posterior base of skull (CRANIAL FOSSA, POSTERIOR). It is also known as the "little brain" with convolutions similar to those of CEREBRAL CORTEX, inner white matter, and deep cerebellar nuclei. Its function is to coordinate voluntary movements, maintain balance, and learn motor skills. Cerebella,Corpus Cerebelli,Parencephalon,Cerebellums,Parencephalons
D003342 Corpus Striatum Striped GRAY MATTER and WHITE MATTER consisting of the NEOSTRIATUM and paleostriatum (GLOBUS PALLIDUS). It is located in front of and lateral to the THALAMUS in each cerebral hemisphere.
