title: Effects of repeated dopamine D1 receptor stimulation on rotation and c-fos expression.
abstract: Acute injections of the full dopamine D1 receptor agonist A-77636 ((1R,3S)-3-(1'adamantyl)-1-aminomethyl-3,4-dihydro-5,6-dihydroxy-1 H-2-benzopyran hydrochloride) induce ipsilateral Fos-like immunoreactivity and contralateral rotation into rats bearing unilateral dopamine depleting lesions. However, following repeated treatment, A-77636 fails to induce either striatal c-fos or rotation. Our results suggest that striatal c-fos activation mirrors behavioral indices of dopamine D1 receptor sensitivity.
