The existence of dopamine receptor subtypes outside the central nervous system has been suggested by pharmacological and biochemical techniques. Whether the renal dopamine receptors are distinct from those cloned from the brain remains to be determined. Indeed, the expression of any of these receptor genes in the kidney has not been demonstrated definitively. In this study, we amplified D1A receptor cDNA from microdissected proximal convoluted tubules of the rat kidney by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction; primers were based on the sequence of rat D1A cDNA cloned from the brain and corresponded to the third cytoplasmic loop of the receptor. Specificity of the amplified products was verified by restriction analysis, Southern blots, and sequencing. Furthermore, solution hybridization indicated the presence of a single ribonuclease-protected RNA species corresponding to the D1A receptor mRNA in proximal tubules. These studies report for the first time the presence of D1A receptor message in the kidney.

D007687 Kidney Tubules, Proximal The renal tubule portion that extends from the BOWMAN CAPSULE in the KIDNEY CORTEX into the KIDNEY MEDULLA. The proximal tubule consists of a convoluted proximal segment in the cortex, and a distal straight segment descending into the medulla where it forms the U-shaped LOOP OF HENLE.

D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D016133 Polymerase Chain Reaction In vitro method for producing large amounts of specific DNA or RNA fragments of defined length and sequence from small amounts of short oligonucleotide flanking sequences (primers). The essential steps include thermal denaturation of the double-stranded target molecules, annealing of the primers to their complementary sequences, and extension of the annealed primers by enzymatic synthesis with DNA polymerase. The reaction is efficient, specific, and extremely sensitive. Uses for the reaction include disease diagnosis, detection of difficult-to-isolate pathogens, mutation analysis, genetic testing, DNA sequencing, and analyzing evolutionary relationships.
