  • Title: Dopamine- and apomorphine-sensitive adenylate cyclase in homogenates of rabbit retina.
    Author: Bucher MB, Schorderet M.
    Journal: Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol; 1975; 288(1):103-7. PubMed ID: 169480.
    Abstract:
    Dopamine (0.5-100 muM) as well as apomorphine (1-100 muM) were found to be potent stimulators of adenylate cyclase in homogenates of rabbit retina. When compared with the dopamine-effect at 10 muM, half-stimulation was also obtained in response to noradrenaline or adrenaline, whereas isoprenaline or phenylephrine were ineffective. Furthermore, the dopamine-induced production of cyclic AMP wab blocked by chloropromazine and haloperidol. These data would suggest the occurrence of a specific "dopamine receptor" in the retina of the rabbit.
