In analogy to the dopamine D3 receptor agonist, (+)-7-OH-DPAT (7-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin) (0.01-0.63 mg/kg s.c.), clozapine dose-dependently (0.63-40.0 mg/kg s.c.) elicited hypothermia in rats. Haloperidol and raclopride, mixed dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonists, failed, in contrast, to modify core temperature. Further, they dose-dependently inhibited the action of clozapine with inhibitory dose50 values (ID50) of 0.3 mg/kg s.c., in each case. The preferential dopamine D3 versus D2 receptor antagonist, (+)-AJ 76 (cis-(+)-5-methoxy-1-methyl-2-(n-propylamino)tetralin) (ID50 = 2.8), and the selective dopamine D3 versus D2 receptor antagonist, (+/-)-S 11566 ((+/-)(-)[7-(N,N-dipropylamino)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphtho(2,3b) dihydro,2,3-furane]) (ID50 = 1.6) likewise blocked the action of clozapine without reducing core temperature alone. The action of (+/-)-S 11566 was stereospecific in that its active eutomer, (+)-S 14297 (ID50 = 1.0), also inhibited the action of clozapine whereas its inactive distomer, (-)-S 17777 (ID50 > 10.0), was not effective. Antagonist potency for blockade of clozapine-induced hypothermia correlated powerfully both with potency for blockade of (+)-7-OH-DPAT-induced hypothermia (r = 0.98) and with affinity at cloned human dopamine D3 receptors transfected into Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells (r = 0.92). In conclusion, these data suggest that dopamine D3 receptors may be involved in the induction of hypothermia by clozapine in the rat.

The selective dopamine D3 receptor agonist, 7-OH-DPAT ((+)-7-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin) and the novel naphthofurane, S 14297 ((+)-[7-(N,N-dipropylamino)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro- naphtho(2,3b)dihydro,2,3-furane]), bound with high affinity and selectivity to recombinant, human dopamine D3 versus D2 receptors stably transfected into Chinese hamster ovary cells: Ki values = 2 versus 103 nM for 7-OH-DPAT and 13 versus 297 nM for S 14297. In contrast, the putative dopamine D3 receptor antagonist, AJ 76 (cis-(+)-5-methoxy-1-methyl-2-(n- propylamino)tetralin), displayed low affinity and selectivity for dopamine D3 versus D2 sites (70 versus 154 nM). 7-OH-DPAT (0.01-0.16 mg/kg s.c.) provoked hypothermia in rats, an action abolished by S 14297 (0.04-0.63 mg/kg s.c.) and, less potently, by AJ 76 (0.16-2.5 mg/kg s.c.). S 14297 (20.0 mg/kg s.c.) did not modify prolactin secretion. These data suggest that dopamine D3 receptors mediate hypothermia in the rat and that S 14297 acts as a selective antagonist at these sites.

The in vivo effects of administration of the putative dopamine D3 receptor agonist 7-hydroxy-N,N-di-n-propylaminotetralin (7-OH-DPAT) were investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive wistar-Kyoto controls (WKY). The i.p. injection of 7-OH-DPAT induced hyperactivity in WKY at 10 mg/kg, but only an inhibition of exploratory locomotor activity was observed in SHR at 1 mg/kg. In WKY and SHR with unilateral lesions of the nigrostriatal system, s.c. injection of 0.01-1 mg/kg of 7-OH-DPAT induced dose-dependent contralateral turning behaviour. This response was more pronounced in SHR than in WKY. The s.c. injection of 0.03, but not of 0.01 or 0.1 mg/kg, of 7-OH-DPAT induced yawning in WKY and SHR. The i.v. injection of 0.1 or 1 mg/kg of 7-OH-DPAT induced an immediate rise in blood pressure in both WKY and SHR. Pretreatment with the dopamine receptor antagonist haloperidol partially prevented this pressor response and, in addition, unmasked a late fall in blood pressure in SHR. The s.c. injection of 1 mg/kg of 7-OH-DPAT induced a decrease in body temperature, which was more pronounced in SHR than in WKY. This effect could be inhibited by pretreatment with haloperidol, but a residual hypothermia remained in SHR. These results suggest that 7-OH-DPAT induces a variety of effects in vivo, many of which may be mediated by dopamine D2 receptors or non-dopaminergic receptors. Thus, more selective dopamine D3 receptor agonists or -antagonists are needed to further explore the role of dopamine D3 receptors in vivo.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Pramipexole (SND 919; 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-6-propyl-amino-benzthiazole-dihydroc hlo ride) is a novel dopamine D2 family receptor agonist with a predominant action on D2 autoreceptors and with some D3 vs. D2 receptor preference. The central behavioural effects of pramipexole given subcutaneously to rats (male Wistar) and mice (Albino Swiss) are presented in this paper. Used in low doses (0.001-0.1 mg/kg), pramipexole induced locomotor hypoactivity which was antagonized by a low dose of spiperone; at higher doses (0.3, 1 mg/kg) it evoked hyperactivity which was inhibited by haloperidol, sulpiride and clozapine, but not by SCH 23390 (R(+)-7-chloro-8-hydroxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3- benzazepine hydrochloride). Pramipexole (0.1-1.0 mg/kg) antagonized the akinesia induced by combined pretreatment with reserpine (5 mg/kg) and alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine (250 mg/kg). Pramipexole (0.1-1 mg/kg) potentiated the hyperkinetic effect of L-DOPA (L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine) (50 and 200 mg/kg, together with benserazide, 50 mg/kg) in naive and monoamine-depleted (reserpine + alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine) rats. The higher doses of pramipexole (1 and 3 mg/kg) evoked stereotypy which was antagonized by pretreatment with sulpiride or clozapine. The catalepsy induced by haloperidol, spiperone or fluphenazine was antagonized by pramipexole (1-3 mg/kg). Pramipexole (1 mg/kg) induced hypothermia in mice, which was antagonized by sulpiride. The obtained results indicate that pramipexole: (i) at low doses stimulates the dopamine D2 presynaptic autoreceptors; (ii) at higher doses stimulates dopamine D2 postsynaptic receptors. An effect on the dopamine D3 receptor cannot be excluded. At low doses pramipexole may have antipsychotic activity, and at higher ones antiparkinsonian activity.

Rats were trained to recognize a discriminative stimulus (DS) elicited by the preferential dopamine D3 receptor agonists, PD128,907 (0.16 mg/kg, i.p.) and 7-OH-DPAT (0.16 mg/kg, i.p.). PD128,907 and 7-OH-DPAT showed "full" (> or = 80%) and mutual generalization. Chemically-diverse, preferential D3 versus D2 agonists, quinelorane, CGS15855A, pramipexole, ropinirole and piribedil, generalized to PD128,907 (and 7-OH-DPAT) in this order of potency, which correlated more strongly with affinity/activity at cloned human (h)D3 (r=0.68/0.81, n=7) than hD2 (0.27/0.64, n=7) receptors. Further, generalization potency strongly correlated with potency for suppression of response rates (0.86), induction of hypothermia (0.92), reduction of striatal dopamine turnover (0.92) and diminution of immobility in a forced-swim procedure (0.97). Nafadotride, UH232 and AJ76, which show a mild preference for D3 versus D2 sites, blocked the PD128,907 DS, and the modestly-selective D3 antagonist, U99194A, was partially effective. Both nafadotride and U99194A blocked the 7-OH-DPAT DS. However, antagonist potency (n=4) versus PD128,907 correlated better with affinity at D2 (0.89) versus D3 (0.27) sites. Further, whereas the preferential D2 versus D3 antagonist, L741,626, antagonized the PD128,907 DS, the selective D3 antagonists, S11566, S14297 (its eutomer) and GR218,231 were ineffective against PD128907 and 7-OH-DPAT DS. S11566 and GR218,231 likewise did not generalize to PD128,907. In conclusion, under the present conditions, D2 receptors are principally implicated in the DS properties of PD128,907 and 7-OH-DPAT.

The anti-emetic and pharmacological profile of AS-8112 ((R)-5-bromo-N-(1-ethyl-4-methylhexahydro-1H-1,4-diazepin-6-yl)-2-methoxy-6-methylamino-3-pyridinecarboxamide.2 fumarate), a novel and potent dopamine D2, D3 and 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 (5-HT3) receptors ligand, was investigated in the present study. In guinea-pig isolated colon, AS-8112 produced a rightward shift of the concentration-response curves of 2-methyl-5HT, a 5-HT3 receptor agonist (pA2 value of 7.04). Other 5-HT3 receptor antagonists also produced such a shift in the following antagonistic-potency order: granisetron> ondansetron=AS-8112>>metoclopramide. In mice, AS-8112 (1.0 - 3.0 mg kg(-1) s.c.) potently inhibited hypothermia induced by the dopamine D3 receptor agonist; R(+)-7-OH-DPAT (R(+)-7-hydroxy-2-(N,N-di-n-propylamino)tetraline) (0.3 mg kg(-1) s.c.). Domperidone and haloperidol, which have affinity for dopamine D3 receptor, also inhibited R(+)-7-OH-DPAT-induced hypothermia. In ferrets or dogs, AS-8112 dose-dependently inhibited emesis induced by R(+)-7-OH-DPAT, apomorphine, morphine or cisplatin with ID50 values of 2.22 microg kg(-1) s.c., 10.5 microg kg(-1) s.c., 14.2 microg kg(-1) i.v. and 17.6 microg kg(-1) i.v., respectively. Moreover, oral administration of AS-8112 significantly inhibited emesis induced by these emetogens. AS-8112 (0.3 mg kg(-1) i.v.) significantly inhibited emesis induced by cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin. In conclusion, AS-8112 is a potent dopamine D2, D3 and 5-HT3 receptors antagonist, and a novel anti-emetic agent with a broad-spectrum of anti-emetic activity. These results suggest that this compound is worthy of clinical investigation.

1-(2-ethoxy-phenyl)-4-[3-(3-thiophen-2-yl-isoxazolin-5-yl)-propyl]-piperazine (KCH-1110), has a high affinity for human dopamine D3 (hD3) receptor (Ki=1.28 nM) with about 90-fold selectivity over the human dopamine D2L (hD2L) receptor. Antipsychotic or antidopaminergic activity of KCH-1110 was investigated in the models for the positive symptoms of schizophrenia, apomorphine-induced climbing and cocaine-induced hyperlocomotion, in mice. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) or oral (p.o.) administration of KCH-1110 potently inhibited the apomorphine-induced cage climbing without any rotarod ataxia in mice. Cocaine-induced hyperactivity was also antagonised by KCH-1110. In addition, KCH-1110 attenuated the hypothermia induced by a selective dopamine D3 agonist, 7-OH-DPAT in mice. KCH-1110 did not induce catalepsy in mice, but at much higher doses only a slight catalepsy response was shown. Although high doses of KCH-1110 significantly enhanced serum prolactin secretion in rats, low dose of KCH-1110 did not increase prolactin levels in rats. The present studies, therefore, suggest that KCH-1110 is a potent and relatively selective dopamine D3 receptor antagonist with antipsychotic actions.

KKHA-761, 1-{4-[3-(3,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-isoxazol-5-yl]-butyl}-4-(2-methoxy-phenyl)-piperazine, has a high affinity (Ki=3.85 nM) for human dopamine D3 receptor with about 70-fold selectivity over the human dopamine D(2L) receptor (Ki=270 nM). KKHA-761 also showed high affinity for cloned human 5-HT1A receptor (Ki=6.4 nM). KKHA-761 exhibited D3 and 5-HT1A receptor antagonist activities in vitro, reversing dopamine- or 5-HT-mediated stimulation of [35S]GTPrS binding. The in vivo pharmacological profile of KKHA-761 was compared with both typical and atypical antipsychotics including clozapine and haloperidol. Apomorphine-induced dopaminergic behavior, cage climbing, in mice was potently blocked by a single administration (i.p.) of KKHA-761 (ID50=4.06 mg/kg) or clozapine (ID50=4.0 mg/kg). Cocaine- or MK-801-induced hyperactivity in animals was markedly inhibited by KKHA-761 or clozapine. In addition, KKHA-761 significantly reversed the disruption of prepulse inhibition (PPI) produced by apomorphine in mice, indicating the antidopaminergic or antipsychotic activity of KKHA-761 in mice. However, KKHA-761 was inactive in the forced swimming behavioral despair model in mice, suggesting lack of antidepressant properties. KKHA-761 attenuated the hypothermia induced by a selective dopamine D3 agonist, 7-OH-DPAT, in mice, whereas clozapine enhanced it. Moderate doses of both KKHA-761 and clozapine did not increase serum prolactin levels in rats. Lower doses of, however, haloperidol significantly increased prolactin secretion. KKHA-761 did not induce cataleptic response up to 20 mg/kg, but significant catalepsy was shown at lower doses of clozapine and haloperidol. Furthermore, KKHA-761 showed a low incidence of rotarod ataxia (TD50=34.4 mg/kg, i.p.) in mice. The present results, therefore, suggest that KKHA-761 is a potent antipsychotic agent with combined dopamine D3 and serotonin 5-HT1A receptors modulation activity, which may further enhance its therapeutic potential for anxiety, psychotic depression, and other related disorders.

Food restriction enhances sensitivity to the reinforcing effects of a variety of drugs of abuse including opiates, nicotine, and psychostimulants. Food restriction has also been shown to alter a variety of behavioral and pharmacological responses to dopaminergic agonists, including an increased sensitivity to the locomotor stimulatory effects of direct- and indirect-dopamine agonists, elevated extracellular dopamine levels in responses to psychostimulants, as well as suppression of agonist-induced yawning. Behavioral and molecular studies suggest that augmented dopaminergic responses observed in food-restricted animals result from a sensitization of the dopamine D2 receptor; however, little is known about how food restriction affects dopamine D3 receptor function. The current studies were aimed at better defining the effects of food restriction on D2 and D3 receptor function by assessing the capacity of N'-propyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzothiazole-2,6-diamine dihydrochloride (pramipexole) to induce yawning, penile erection (PE), hypothermia, and locomotor activity in free-fed and food-restricted rats. Food restriction resulted in a suppression of pramipexole-induced yawning, a sensitized hypothermic response, and an enhanced locomotor response to pramipexole, effects that are suggestive of an enhanced D2 receptor activity; no effect on pramipexole-induced PE was observed. Antagonist studies further supported a food restriction-induced enhancement of the D2 receptor activity because the D2 antagonist 3-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidin-l-yl]methyl-1H-indole (L741,626) recovered pramipexole-induced yawning to free-fed levels, whereas yawning and PE were suppressed following pretreatment with the D3 antagonist N-{4-[4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-trans-but-2-enyl}-4-pyridine-2-yl-benzamide hydrochloride (PG01037). The results of the current studies suggest that food restriction sensitized rats to the D2-mediated effects of pramipexole while having no effect on the D3-mediated effects of pramipexole.
