The inhibitory action of SCH 23390 (SCH, D1-antagonist) or sulpiride (SUL, D2-antagonist) on the dopamine-induced enhancement of the electroretinographic oscillatory potentials was examined in anesthetized albino rabbits. Enhancement of the oscillatory potentials by intravitreal dopamine (50 microM intravitreal concentration) injection was blocked by a simultaneous intravitreal injection of SCH (20 microM) but not by SUL (50 microM, 100 microM). These results suggest that D1-receptor is mainly responsible for the dopamine-induced enhancement of the oscillatory potentials.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011817	Rabbits	A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D012160	Retina	The ten-layered nervous tissue membrane of the eye. It is continuous with the OPTIC NERVE and receives images of external objects and transmits visual impulses to the brain. Its outer surface is in contact with the CHOROID and the inner surface with the VITREOUS BODY. The outer-most layer is pigmented, whereas the inner nine layers are transparent.	Ora Serrata
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.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001552	Benzazepines	Compounds with BENZENE fused to AZEPINES.
D013469	Sulpiride	A dopamine D2-receptor antagonist. It has been used therapeutically as an antidepressant, antipsychotic, and as a digestive aid.

D017447	Receptors, Dopamine D1	A subfamily of G-PROTEIN-COUPLED RECEPTORS that bind the neurotransmitter DOPAMINE and modulate its effects. D1-class receptor genes lack INTRONS, and the receptors stimulate ADENYLYL CYCLASES.	Dopamine D1 Receptors,Dopamine-D1 Receptor,D1 Receptors, Dopamine,Dopamine D1 Receptor,Receptor, Dopamine-D1
D018492	Dopamine Antagonists	Drugs that bind to but do not activate DOPAMINE RECEPTORS, thereby blocking the actions of dopamine or exogenous agonists. Many drugs used in the treatment of psychotic disorders (ANTIPSYCHOTIC AGENTS) are dopamine antagonists, although their therapeutic effects may be due to long-term adjustments of the brain rather than to the acute effects of blocking dopamine receptors. Dopamine antagonists have been used for several other clinical purposes including as ANTIEMETICS, in the treatment of Tourette syndrome, and for hiccup. Dopamine receptor blockade is associated with NEUROLEPTIC MALIGNANT SYNDROME.
