Pertussis toxin blocks autoreceptor-mediated inhibition of dopaminergic neurons in rat substantia nigra.

R B Innis, G K Aghajanian.   

Abstract

Rat substantia nigra was injected with 1 microgram of purified pertussis toxin, a substance which inactivates the inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory unit of adenylate cyclase. In comparison to saline-injected animals, the pertussis toxin-treated animals showed almost no inhibition of dopaminergic neurons in response to dopamine applied iontophoretically or the dopamine agonist (-)-apomorphine given intravenously. These results provide evidence that a guanine nucleotide regulatory protein is involved as a transducer in mediating the physiological actions of dopamine autoreceptors.
