title: The effects of apomorphine and isoproterenol on the 'transport response' in the white rat.
abstract: In a series of four experiments, the ability of specific catecholaminergic agonists to intensify the 'transport response' was investigated in 19-, 32-, 36- and 40-day-old rats. The dopaminergic agonist, apomorphine, was able to intensify the response in a dose-dependent fashion. The beta-noradrenergic agonist, isoproterenol, was unable to alter the intensity of the response. These results indicate a central dopaminergic involvement in the transport response.
