The effect of dopamine on
vasopressin
release was studied by the infusion of L-Dopa, a dopamine precursor that crosses the blood-brain barrier. L-Dopa suppressed resting levels of
vasopressin
and inhibited the rise of
vasopressin
produced by head-up tilt.
Carbidopa
, a decarboxylase inhibitor that does not cross the blood-brain barrier blocked the action of L-Dopa. These results suggest that dopamine inhibits the release of
vasopressin
, either by an action at pituitary level or at the median eminence of the hypothalamus.
