The neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) at a 10 Β΅M concentration elicited a stimulation of intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) accumulation in cultured astrocytes derived from embryonic rat striatum. This accumulation was partially blocked by the β€-adrenergic receptors antagonist propranolol, mimicked by the
Dopamine D 1 -receptor binding in the basal ganglia is differentially regulated by subtype nonspecific dopamine antagonists such as the antipsychotic, Fluphenazine. The purpose of the present study was to determine the relative contributions of D 1 and D 2 receptor systems in the regulation of basal
