title: Typical antipsychotics exhibit inverse agonist activity at rat dopamine D1-like receptors expressed in Sf9 cells.
abstract: The baculovirus system has been used to express the rat dopamine D1 receptors in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cells. A panel of typical antipsychotics including, alpha-flupenthixol, fluphenazine and thioridizine were found to inhibit dopamine-dependent stimulation of adenylyl cyclase. However, these compounds were also found to inhibit adenylyl cyclase activity in the absence of agonist in Sf9 cells expressing dopamine D1-like receptors. Therefore, these nonselective dopamine receptor compounds displayed negative intrinsic or inverse agonist activity. None of the compounds tested were neutral antagonists.
