Antipsychotic Drugs: Direct Correlation Between Clinical Potency and Presynaptic Action on Dopamine Neurons
Abstract
Neuroleptic (antipsychotic) drugs inhibited the electrically stimulated release of [3 H]dopamine from rat striatal slices. The concentrations for 50 percent inhibition (ranging from 11.5 nanomolar for spiroperidol to 800 nanomolar for thioridazine) correlated closely with the average daily dosages of 25 neuroleptic drugs used clinically for schizophrenia. The correlation includes butyrophenones, phenothiazines, reserpine, pimozide, clozapine, and (+)-butaclamol. Clinically inactive isomers [trans-thiothixene,trans-flupenthixol, and (-)-butaclamol] required 20 to 1000 times higher concentrations than the active isomers to inhibit release. Compared to the inhibition of [3 H]dopamine release, much higher neuroleptic concentrations were needed to inhibit the electrically stimulated release of other neurotransmitters—[3 H]acetylcholine, [3 H]GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid). The neuroleptic drugs may block the presynaptic coupling between impulse and neurosecretion.

“The DA hypothesis of schizophrenia suggests that excess DA transmission may be pro-psychotic, and originally gained support from pharmacological evidence that drugs that decrease DA activity (for example,, the phenothiazine neuroleptics) are antipsychotic, whereas drugs that promote DA activity (for example,, amphetamines) are psychotomimetic [76,357].”

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.
