Purpose:In an attempt to predict the interpersonal differences of therapeutic response to antipsychotic drugs on pharmaco-genetic bases, this study was designed to investigate the relationship between the therapeutic response to antipsychotic drugs and Taq I A dopamine $D_2$ receptor polymorphism in schizophrenic patients. Methods:The subjects were 158 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia(DSM-IV). The therapeutic response to antipsychotic drugs was evaluated using the Treatment Response Scale(TRS) retrospectively. Patients were divided into two groups, dopamine receptor antagonist responders, and serotonin-dopamine antagonist responders. The patients' Taq I A dopamine $D_2$ receptor polymorphism was determined by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP). Results:The dopamine receptor antagonist responders had the A1 allele in significantly higher incidences (${\chi}^2$(1)=4.875, p=0.027, two-tailed). No significant difference was found among the serotonin-dopamine antagonist responders between those with or without the A1 allele. Conclusions:The patients with the A1 allele responded better to dopamine receptor antagonists than those with no A1 allele. Based on these results, it is suggested that the pharmacological effect of dopamine receptor antagonists can be predicted depending on the presence of the A1 allele in schizophrenic patients.

It has been demonstrated previously that R(-)-2,10,11-trihydroxy-N-n-propylnora porphine (TNPA), a dopamine D$_2$receptor agonist, produced the antidiuresis through changes of central friction in dog. This study was investigated about effects of renal denervation and raclopride, a dopamine D$_2$receptor antagonist, on the antidiuresis of TNPA in order to elicidate the mechanism involved in this central antidiuresis induced by TNPA. Antidiresis exhibited by TNPA given into the vein or into carotid artery was not influenced by renal denervation, whereas antidiuresis of TNPA administered into carotid artery was blocked almost perfectly by raclopride pretreated into carotid artery. From these observations it is concluded that central antidiuresis induced by TNPA is brought about through activation of dopamine D$_2$receptor localized in brain, not related to renal nerve activity.

lt had been reproted previously that (${\pm}$)6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-phenyl 2,3,4,5-tetra-hydro -lH-3benzazepine (SKF 81297), dopamine $D_1$ receptor agonist, produced diuresis by both Indirect action through central function and direct action being induced in kidney. This study was attempted in order to examine the diuresis mechanism of such SKF 81297 Diuretic action of SKF 81297 given into the vein or the carotid artery was not affected by renal denervation, whereas diuretic action of SKF 81297 administered into a renal artery was blocked completely by renal denervation, and then diuretic action of SKF 81297 injected into carotid artery was inhibited by SCH 23390, dopamine $D_1$ receptor antagonist, given into carotid artery. Above results suggest that indirect diuretic action of SKF 81297 elicites through central dopamine $D_1$ receptor and direct diuresis in kidney by influence of renal nerves.

Dopamine mediates inhibitory responses in Helix aspersa neurons from the right parietal lobe ("F-lobe") of the circumoesophageal ganglia. The effects appeared as a dose-dependent hyperpolarization of the plasma membrane and a decrease in the occurrence of spontaneous action potentials. The average hyperpolarization with 5 ${\mu}m$ dopamine was -12 mV (${\pm}1.5$mV, S.D., n=12). Dopamine also modulated the currents 'responsible for shaping the action potentials in these neurons. When dopamine was added and action potentials were triggered by an injection of current, the initial depolarization was slowed, the amplitude and the duration of action potentials were decreased, and the after-hyperpolarization was more pronounced. The amplitude and the duration of action potential were reduced about 15 mV and about 13% by 5 ${\mu}m$ dopamine, respectively. The effects of dopamine on the resting membrane potentials and the action potentials of Helix neurons were dose-dependent in the concentration range 0.1 ${\mu}m$ to 50 ${\mu}m$. In order to show 1) that the effects of dopamine were mediated by dopamine receptors rather than by direct action on ionic channels and 2) which type of dopamine receptor might be responsible for the various effects, we assayed the ability of mammalian dopamine receptor antagonists, SCH-23390 (antagonist of D1 receptor) and spiperone (antagonist of D2 receptor), to block the dopamine-dependent changes. The D1 and D2 antagonists partially inhibited the dopamine-dependent hyperpolarization and the decrease in action potential amplitude. They both completely blocked the decrease in action potential duration and the increase in action potential after-hyperpolarization. The dopamine-induced slowdown of the depolarization in the initial phase of the action potentials was less effected by SCH-23390 and spiperone. From the results we suggest 1) that Helix F-lobe neurons may have a single type of dopamine receptor that binds both SCH-23390 and spiperone and 2) that the dopamine receptor of Helix F-lobe neurons may be homologous with and primitive to the family of mammalian dopamine receptors.

This Study was attempted to investigate tile effect of dopamine, SKF 81297, a dopamine D$_1$-receptor agonist, and TNPA, a dopamine D$_2$-receptor agonist, on the blood pressure in rat. Dopamine exhibited the hypertensive action in proportion to the doses of 1.0, 3.0 arid 10.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v., these hypertensive action of dopamine was blocked significantly by SCH 23390, a dopamine D$_1$-receptor antagonist, on the other hand, more potentiated by raclopride, a dopamine D$_1$-receptor antagonist. SKF 81297 produced hypertensive action in a dose of 1.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v., wherease hypotensive action in proportion to administered doses 3.0 and 10.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v., these hypertensive action of SKF 81297 in a dose of 1.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v. was not influenced by SCH 23390 or raclopride, but hypotensive action of SKF 81297 in tile doses of 3.0 and 10.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v. was weakened significantly by SCH 23390, but more strenthened by raclopride. TNPA showed the hypotensive action in inverse proportion to administered doses of 1.0, 3.0 and 10.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v., these hypotensive action was reversed to hypertensive action in inverse proportion to the administered doses of TNPA by SCH 23390 and raclopride.

Abuse liability of ephedrine was investigated by measurement of locomotor activity and self-administration in Sprague-Dawley rats. Locomotor activity was determined in rats treated with 3, 10 and 30 mg/kg ephedrine for 14 days. Self-administration by ephedrine (0.23, 1 and 2.3 mg/kg) was examined in food-trained rats. We also examined effect of dopamine receptor antagonist (spiperone, $30{\;}\mu\textrm{g}/kg$) on the ephedrine-induced response of self-administration. Body weight was not statistically difference between control and ephedrine treatment group, but locomotor activity was dose-dependently increased. Self-administration for ephedrine was decreased in the early response (day 1 and 2) but the response was increased by higher dose of ephedrine. Self-administration was decreased by dopamine receptor antagonist (spiperone). These data showed that ephedrine increased locomotor activity and induced response of self-administration, and the effects of ephedrine were partially related to the dopaminergic system, which suggest the ephedrine may have abuse liability.

Nonbenzodiazepine계 항불안제인 buspirone을 이용하여 건강한 8명의 남자를 대상으로 prolactin과 cortisol분비를 측정하였다. Buspirone는 $Dopamine_2$ 수용체 antagonist 성질 뿐 아니라 $5-HT_{1A}$ partial agonist 효과가 있는 것으로 보고되고 있다. Buspirone 30mg 경구투여시 혈청 prolactin 농도는 유의한 증가를 보였으나 혈청 cortisol 농도의 변화는 차이가 없었다. beta adrenoreceptor antagonist이면서 $5-HT_{1A}$ 수용체 antagonist로 알려진 pindolol (30mg)을 경구 투여한 결과 기초 혈청 prolactin이나 cortisol 농도는 유의한 차이가 없었다. Pinodlol을 전처치한 경우 buspirone-induced prolaction 분비의 유의한 억제효과는 없었다. 이상의 성적은 buspirone-induced prolactin 분비증가는 아마도 $5-HT_{1A}$ 수용체 활성과 관련되지 않음을 시사하는 것으로 사료된다.

Dopamine is an enteric neurotransmitter that regulates gastrointestinal motility. This study was done to investigate whether dopamine modulates spontaneous pacemaker activity in cultured interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) from mouse using whole cell patch clamp technique, RT-PCR and live $Ca^{2+}$ imaging analysis. ICCs generate pacemaker inward currents at a holding potential of -70 mV and generate pacemaker potentials in current-clamp mode. Dopamine did not change the frequency and amplitude of pacemaker activity in small intestinal ICCs. On the contrary dopamine reduced the frequency and amplitude of pacemaker activity in large intestinal ICCs. RT-PCR analysis revealed that Dopamine2 and 4-receptors are expressed in c-Kit positive ICCs. Dopamine2 and 4 receptor agonists inhibited pacemaker activity in large intestinal ICCs mimicked those of dopamine. Domperidone, dopamine2 receptor antagonist, increased the frequency of pacemaker activity of large intestinal ICCs. In $Ca^{2+}$-imaging, dopamine inhibited spontaneous intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ oscillations of ICCs. These results suggest that dopamine can regulate gastrointestinal motility through modulating pacemaker activity of large intestinal ICCs and dopamine effects on ICCs are mediated by dopamine2 receptor and intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ modulation.

목적: 도파민은 중추신경전달물질이지만 위장관에서 도파민수용체와 결합하여 점막상피세포 증식, 상피세포의 보호, 위암 세포증식과 관련이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 위암에서 기원한 세포주를 이용하여 도파민과 각각의 도파민 수용체가 위암 세포 증식과 억제에 작용하는 역할에 대해 알아보았다. 대상 및 방법: 위암세포기원에서 각각 유래한 세포주인 SNU601과 KCU-C2를 이용하여 RNA 추출 후 RT-PCR 시행 후 도파민수용체 D1, D2L과 D2S 각각에 대한 primer로 PCR을 시행하여 수용체 유전자의 상대적인 발현정도를 측정하였다. 도파민과 Dl 수용체의 대항제인 SCH 23390과 D2 수용체 대항제인 raclopride를 사용하여 약물처리에 따른 위암세포주에서 세포 증식에 대한 분석을 하였다. 결과: KCU-C2 세포주에서 D1과 D2L과 D2S 유전자 mRNA의 상대적인 발현정도는 모두 높은 발현을 보였지만, SNU 601 세포주에는 mRNA의 발현이 모두 낮은 수준이었으며, 특히 D2L mRNA는 발현되고 있지 않았다. 약물처리에 따른 위암세포주에서 세포증식에 대한 분석에서는 D1과 D2S 수용체를 통한 도파민의 신호는 세포의 증식을 억제하였고 D2L 수용체를 통한 도파민의 신호는 세포의 증식을 유도하였다. 결론: 본 연구를 통해 도파민이 위암의 세포증식과 억제에 관여하며, 도파민의 이러한 효과는 도파민의 신호가 어느 수용체를 통해 전달되었느냐에 따라 위암세포의 증식과 억제가 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다.
