  • Title: Effect of different Ca2+ entry blockers on dopamine-induced inhibition of in vitro prolactin secretion.
    Author: Di Renzo G, Amoroso S, Maida P, Canzoniero L, Nappi C, Taglialatela M, Annunzia L.
    Journal: Eur J Pharmacol; 1988 Feb 09; 146(2-3):201-6. PubMed ID: 3371396.
    Abstract:
    The organic Ca2+ entry blockers nimodipine, verapamil, flunarizine and diltiazem belong to different chemical classes but antagonized, at the concentrations of 1 and 10 microM, the inhibitory effect exerted by 1-10 microM dopamine on in vitro prolactin secretion from the pituitary gland. The results suggest a close functional interaction between Ca2+ entry blockers and the dopamine receptors involved in the inhibition of prolactin secretion.
