title: [Effects of the stimulation of D1 and D2 dopaminergic receptors on the electrically induced release of gamma-(3H)-aminobutyric acid in the prefrontal cortex of the rat].
abstract: The effects of D1 and D2 dopaminergic agonists and antagonists on the electrically-evoked release of gamma-[3H] aminobutyric acid (3H-GABA) have been studied on rat prefrontal cortex slices. The major part of the electrically-evoked release of 3H-GABA appeared to be Ca++ dependent since a 62% decrease was observed when calcium was removed from the superfusion medium. Two specific D2 dopaminergic agonists, RU 24926 (10(-7) M) and lisuride (10(-6) M), respectively induced a 32% and a 50% inhibition of the electrically-evoked release of 3H-GABA. The selective D2 dopaminergic antagonists sulpiride (10(-5) M) totally abolished the effect of RU 24926 and partially abolished the effect of lisuride. The selective D1 agonist SKF 38393 (10(-5) M) did not affect 3H-GABA release. These results suggest that in the rat prefrontal cortex in vitro, the dopaminergic modulation of 3H-GABA release is mediated through D2 but not D1 receptors. The activation of D2 dopaminergic receptors induces an inhibition of the electrically-evoked release of 3H-GABA.
