    Notes: Summary The affinity of a series of N,N-disubstituted 2-aminotetralins for the rat striatal D2 dopamine receptor labelled by [3H]spiperone has been determined. Displacement data for the more potent 2-aminotetralins were better described by a model where the compounds competed for [3H]spiperone at two sites. The high affinity component accounted for approximately 80% of the total sites. Displacement curves for all 2-aminotetralins were shifted to the right by 100 μM guanosine-5′-triphosphate; a result attributable to the redistribution of 13–47% of the sites to a low affinity form. These data are consistent with the N,N-disubstituted 2-aminotetralins being agonists at the D2 dopamine receptor. In particular, the affinities of the 5-hydroxy-2-aminotetralins were as high as those of traditional dopamine agonists.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of IV and IP muscimol on the concentrations of dopamine (DA) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) in both the nigrostriata) and mesolimbic dopaminergic pathways has been studied. IV muscimol (2 mg/kg), produced significant decreases in the concentration of DA in both DA systems, while the concentration of DOPAC remained unaltered. However, IP muscimol (5 and 10 mg/kg) caused significant increases in the concentrations of DA or DOPAC in all brain regions examined. Our results suggest differential actions of muscimol on DA metabolism dependent upon the route of administration.

    Notes: Summary The importance of the caudal ventrolateral medulla (CVLM) in mediating vagal cardiopulmonary (Bezold-Jarisch reflex) reflex activity was studied in urethane-anaesthetized rats. Unilateral electrolytic lesion of the CVLM markedly attenuated Bezold-Jarisch reflex responses (hypotension and bradycardia) elicited by intravenous injections of 5-HT. Bilateral lesion of the CVLM virtually abolished the reflex responses. Microinjection of the excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptor antagonist kynurenate (KYN), but not the inactive analogue xanthurenate, into the CVLM markedly attenuated the reflex responses to 5-HT. The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, MK-801 also markedly attenuated reflex activity. Furthermore, lesions, KYN and MK-801 all tended to elevate resting blood pressure and to reduce resting heart rate. These findings support the hypothesis that the CVLM is an important medullary locus mediating cardiovascular reflex integration and that an EAA synapse in the CVLM is important in the cardiopulmonary reflex arc.
