title: Catalepsy-associated behavior induced by dopamine D1 receptor antagonists and partial dopamine D1 receptor agonists in squirrel monkeys.
abstract: Observational procedures were used to compare the behavioral effects of dopamine D1 receptor antagonists and partial dopamine D1 receptor agonists in squirrel monkeys. The dopamine D1 receptor antagonists SCH 39166 ((-)-trans-6-7,7a,8,9,13b-hexahydro-3-chloro-2-hydroxy-N- methyl-5H-benzo(d)naphtho-(2,1-b)azepine) and BW 737C89 ([S]-6-chloro-1-[2,5-dimethoxy-4-propylbenzyl]-7- hydroxy-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline) produced dose-related increases in the duration of static and unusual postures, indicative of catalepsy. R-SKF 38393 (R(+)-7,8- dihydroxy-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-[1H]-3-benzazepine) and SKF 75670 (7,8-dihydroxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-[1H]-3- benzazepine), which are considered partial dopamine D1 receptor agonists, also consistently produced dose-related increases in catalepsy-associated behavior and had effects comparable in magnitude to those of dopamine D1 receptor antagonists. In contrast, the higher efficacy D1 agonists SKF 81297 (6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-[1H]-3- benzazepine) and SKF 82958 (6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-allyl-[1H]-3- benzazepine) did not produce catalepsy-associated behavior at any dose tested. The results indicate that dopamine D1 agonists differ with respect to cataleptogenic activity, possibly reflecting differences in intrinsic activity.
