  • Title: The benzazepine, SCH 23390, inhibits 3H-NPA binding in mouse brain in vivo.
    Author: Andersen PH, Nielsen EB.
    Journal: Acta Pharmacol Toxicol (Copenh); 1986 Oct; 59(4):315-8. PubMed ID: 2948372.
    Abstract:
    The fact that SCH 23390, a selective dopamine (DA) D1 antagonist, blocks the effects of D2 agonists suggests a functional coupling of D1 and D2 receptors. Therefore, the binding of SCH 23390 to D2 receptors was investigated in vivo using 3H-N-n-propylnorapomorphine (NPA), a D2 agonist, and 3H-spiperone and 3H-raclopride, both D2 antagonists. SCH 23390 failed to inhibit 3H-spiperone or 3H-raclopride binding; however, SCH 23390 was relatively potent in inhibiting 3H-NPA binding. These results suggest that (some) antidopaminergic effects of SCH 23390 may result from antagonism of a D2 agonist conformation of the D2 receptor.
