Abstract

An adenylate cyclase that is activated specifically by low concentrations of dopamine has been demonstrated in homogenates of caudate nucleus of rat brain. A half-maximal increase in the activity of the enzyme occurred in the presence of 4 μM dopamine. Concentrations of dopamine as low as 0.3 μM stimulated the activity of the enzyme. The adenylate cyclase activity of the homogenates was also stimulated by low concentrations of apomorphine, a substance known to mimic the physiological and pharmacological effects of dopamine. The stimulatory effect of dopamine was blocked by low concentrations of either haloperidol or chlorpromazine, agents known to block the actions of dopamine in mammalian brain. The results suggest that dopamine-sensitive adenylate cyclase may be the receptor for dopamine in mammalian brain. The isolation of this enzyme from caudate nucleus should facilitate the search for new therapeutic agents useful in the treatment of extrapyramidal diseases.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
