[$^{18}F$]FMBS는 도파민 $D_2$ 수용체 방사성추적자로서 유망한 성질을 지니고 있다. [$^{18}F$]FMBS는 비교적 높은 특이결합/비특이결합 비를 제공하며, 그 체내결합은 도파민 $D_2$ 수용체에 대하여 높은 특이성과 선택성을 보인다. 도파빈 $D_2$ 수용체 측정을 위한 보다 적합한 PET 방사성추적자를 얻기 위해서는 [$^{18}F$]FMBS의 낮은 뇌섭취와 느린 역학을 개선할 수 있는 화학적 구조의 변형이 시도되어야 하며, [$^{18}F$]FMBS는 이러한 시도의 골격이 될 수 있을 것으로 믿는다.

The effects of 3 week treatment with haloperidol(2mg/kg/day, i.p.) on dopamine(DA) D2 receptor and DA metabolism in rat striata were studied at various time points after withdrawal from the drug treatment. Striatal DA D2 receptors were characterized with the radioligand 0.5nM [$^3H$]Spiperone. Dopamine(DA), homovanillic acid(HVA), 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl acetic acid(DOPAC) in rat striatum were measured with the high performance liquid chromatography. Drug withdrawal for 1 week induced significant increase in the number of D2 receptor in striatum after withdrawal for 1 week(p<0.05), and then this change was restored to control level during the withdrawal time of 2 and 4 weeks. There was no difference in striatal concentrations of DA and its metabolites among the groups. In conclusion, one-week withdrawal from chronic haloperidol treatment induced DA D2 receptor supersensitivity in the striatum, and that was normalized rapidly. Though this adaptive change in DA receptors, it may not affect the metabolism of DA in striatum.

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.

Objective: To investigate the analgesic effect and its serotonergic mechanism, especially related with 5-HTI and 5-HT2 receptor, of electroacupuncture(EA) in the rat model of collagen-induced arthritis(CIA). Methods : Immunization of male Sprague-Dawley rats with bovine type II (C II) collagen emulsified in Freund's incomplete adjuvant, followed by a booster injection 14 days later, leads to development of arthritis in more than 70% of rats by 21 days postinjection. After three weeks of first immunization, EA stimulation(2 Hz, 0.07 mA, 0.3 ms) was delivered into Jogsamni($ST_{36}$) for 30 minutes. Analgesic effect was evaluated by tail flick latency(TFL). We compared the analgesic effect of EA with TFLs between pretreatment of normal saline and pretreatment of spiroxatrine (5-HT1 receptor antagonist, 1mg/kg, intraperitoneal) and spiperone (5-HT2 receptor antagonist, 1 mg/kg, intraperitoneal) in CIA. Results : 1. TFLs were gradually decreased in CIA as increasing severity of arthritis. 2. Jogsamni($ST_{36}$) EA stimulation in CIA increased TFLs and the effect lasted for 60 minutes. 3. Increased TFLs with Jogsamni($ST_{36}$) EA stimulation were inhibited by pretreatment of spiroxatrine and spiperone in CIA. Conclusions : Jogsamni($ST_{36}$) EA showed analgesic effects in CIA The analgesic effects of Jogsamni($ST_{36}$) EA were inhibited by spiroxatrine and spiperone pretreatment. These observations suggest that 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 serotonergic receptor, which involve the release of serotonin neurotransmitter, play an important roles in analgesic mechanism of EA stimulation.

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.

Objectives : to evaluate the analgesic effect of bee venom acupuncture on Choksamni (ST36) in the collagen-induced arthritis rats and investigate the role played by serotonergic receptor subtypes (5-HT1a, 5-HT2a) in the antinociceptive effect of bee venom acupuncture in a thermal hyperalgesia test Methods : Experiments were performed on 5 week-aged 60 male Sprague-Dawley rats according to National Institute of Health guidelines and the ethical guidelines of the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP). Arthritis was induced with arthrogenic collagen emulsion (Bovine type II collagen ${\mu}g$ with incomplete Freund's adjuvant $100\;{\mu}g$). The onset of arthritis was considered to be present when erythema and swelling were detected in at least one joint. The thermal hyperalgesia was evaluated weekly with tail flick test in the rats of severity grade 3 without any injury at tail and foot (including inflammation, ulceration, snap). In the fourth week after first immunization, the analgesic effect of bee venom acupuncture (Choksamni, ST36) was measured with consecutive tail flick latency after intraperitoneal injection of spiroxatrine (1mg/kg) and spiperone (1mg/kg). Results : Chronic inflammatory pain was induced as time elapsed after the immunization of arthrogenic collagen and the maximum value was reached from third to fifth week. Chronic inflammatory pain induced by CIA was inhibited by bee venom acupuncture on the left ST36. The analgesic effect of bee venom acupuncture was inhibited by intraperitoneal injection of 5-HT1a antagonist spiroxatrine and 5-HT2a antagonist spiperone. Conclusions : Therefore, a conclusion. that the analgesic effect of bee venom acupuncture in the chronic inflammatory pain is partially mediated by 5-HT1a and 5-HT2a receptors can be made.

흰쥐에 항정신병약물인 haloperidol과 sulpiride를 장기간 투여한 뒤 줄무늬체와 후결절조직에서의 DA 수용체 의 변동에 대해 조사하였다. 이와 함께 apomorphine 투여에 따른 상동행동점수도 평가하였다. 흰쥐에 haloperidol(0.5mg/kg/day) 이나 sulpiride(40mg/kg/day)를 4주간 투여하고, 3일간의 약물 배설기간을 거친 후에 apomorphine(0.5mg/kg)을 투여하여 상동행동점수를 평가하였다. Haloperidol을 투여한 군에서는 대조군이나 sulpiride를 투여한 군에 비하여 상동행동에 대한 접수가 높게 나타났고, sulpiride를 투여한 군에서는 대조군과 유사한 정도의 상동행동을 나타내었다. 한편 줄무늬체 조직의 [$^3H$]spiperone의 결합에 대한 포화실험에서는 대조군에 비해 haloperidol이나 sulpiride를 투여한 군에서 최대결합치가 유의하게 증가되었다. 해리상수는 sulpiride투여시 줄무늬체에서 유의하게 감소되어 있었다. Sulpiride를 투여했을때 haloperidol 투여 시와 마찬가지의 DA수용체의 증식이 일어나지만, sulpiride 투여군에서만 상통행동 접수가 낮은 것으로 볼 때, 뇌의 DA계에서 sulpiride가 haloperidol과는 다르게 작용한다는 것을 간접적으로 시사하고 있다. 후결절에서는 sulpiride와 haloperidol을 투여한 양군에서 모두 최대결합치가 현저하게 증가되어 있었다. 또한 해라상수도 양군의 후결절에서 유의하게 증가되었다. 더욱이, 대조군은 후결절에서의 해리상수가 37.5pM, 줄무늬체에서는 86.2pM로 나타나, 후결절에서 줄무늬체에서보다 친화도가 두배 이상 높게 측정되었다. 위의 결과로 미루어 볼 때 sulpiride는 후결절에서 DA수용체의 증식을 유도할 뿐만 아니라 높은 친화력을 가진 몇몇 DA수용체 아형과도 상호작용을 한다는 것을 나타낸다. 또한 대조군에서 줄무늬체와 후결절에서의 친화도가 다른 점은, [$^3H$]spiperone에 반응한 DA수용체 아형은 줄무늬체와 후결절에서 각기 다르다는 점을 시사하고 있다.

흰쥐에 항정신병약물인 haloperidol을 장기간 투여한 뒤 줄무늬체와 후결절 조직에서의 DA $D_2$양 수용체의 변동에 대해 조사하였다. 약물투여군 4군에게 haloperidol을 각기 0.05, 0.15, 0.5, 1.5mg/kg/day이 되게끔 4주간 투여하였다. DA수용체의 변동은 [$^3H$]spiperone을 이용한 결합반응법을 통해 알아 보았다. 정상대조군에 비해 4주 동안 haloperidol을 투여받은 군 모두에서 줄무늬체에서의 DA 수용체의 최대 결합치가 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 기존의 연구에서 사용한 용량보다 대단히 낮은 0.05mg/kg/day을 투여받은 군 역시 유의한 증가를 보여 낮은 용량의 haloperidol이 DA계에 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다. 후결절조직의 최대결합치는 haloperidol투여군 모두에서 증가한 경향을 볼 수 있었으나 정상대조군에 비해 1.5mg/kg/day투여군에서 유의한 증가를 볼 수 있었다. 본 실혐의 결과로 미루어 낮은 용량의 haloperidol을 장기간 투여했을 때 뇌내 DA계에 수용체증식이 나타나며 항정신병 효과의 발현과도 관련성이 시사된다. 이러한 결과는 최근 거론되고 있는 항정신병약물의 저용량투여를 간접적으로 지지하는 것으로 생각되며 DA계의 연동을 알리는 다른 생물학적 지표와의 관련성을 살피면 흥미로운 결과를 얻을 것으로 기대된다.

The behavioral response, depamine metabolism, and characteristics of dopamine subtypes after developing the hyperlycemia were studied in the striata of rats. In animals developed hyperglycemia, the on-set duration of cataleptic behavior responded to SCH 23390 injection was delayed abd shortened, respectively. However, the cataleptic response to spiperone occurred significantly earlier in on-set and prolonged in duration. Dopamine metabolites, dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DDPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA), were significantly reduced in teh striata of hyeprglycemic rats. However, level of DA was significantly increased. It is noted that the ratios of DOPAC and HVA to DA were decreased, suggesting decreased tumover of DA. The affinity of striatal D-1 receptors was significantly increased without changes in the number of binding sites, while the maximum binding number of D-2 recptors was significantly increased without affecting its affinity in the diabetic rats. These results indicate that the dopaminergic activity in striatia was altered in hyperglycemic rats. Furthermore, it suggests that the upregulation of dopamine receptors might be due to the decreased dopamine matabolism.
