Abstract
Adenylate cyclase activity of homogenates of anterior pituitary from rat, rabbit and monkey was stimulated by dopamine, other amine neurotransmitters and Gpp(NH)p. The concentration of dopamine for half-maximal stimulation of activity was 2--5 micrometer. Studies with selective agonists and antagonists indicated the presence of dopamine receptors and beta-adrenergic receptors coupled to adenylate cyclase in anterior pituitary. In addition, histamine stimulated activity in rabbit and monkey, but not in rat, anterior pituitary.Entities:
