    Abstract:
    Dispersed acini from dog pancreas were used to examine the ability of dopamine to increase cyclic AMP cellular content and the binding of [3H] dopamine. Cyclic AMP accumulation caused by dopamine was detected at 1.10(-8) M and was half-maximal at 7.9 +/- 3.4 10(-7) M. The increase at 1.10(-5) M, (7.5-fold) was equal to the half-maximal increase caused by secretin at 1.10(-9) M. Haloperidol, a dopaminergic receptor antagonist inhibited cyclic AMP accumulation caused by dopamine. The IC50 value for haloperidol, calculated from the inhibition of cyclic AMP increase caused by 1.10(-5) M dopamine was 2.3 +/- 0.9.10(-6) M. Haloperidol did not alter basal or secretin-stimulated cyclic AMP content. [3H] Dopamine binding was studied on the same batch of cells as cyclic AMP accumulation. At 37 degrees C, it was rapid, reversible, saturable and stereospecific. The Kd value for high affinity binding sites was 0.43 +/- 0.1.10(-7) M and 4.7 +/- 1.6.10(-7) M for low affinity binding sites. The concentration of drugs necessary to inhibit specific binding of dopamine by 50% was 1.2 +/- 0.4.10(-7) M epinine, 4.1 +/- 1.8.10(-6) M fluphenazine, 8.0 +/- 1.6.10(-6) M haloperidol, 4.2 +/- 1.2.10(-6) M cis-flupenthixol, 2.7 +/- 4.0.10(-5) M trans-flupenthixol, less than 1.10(-5) M apomorphine, sulpiride, naloxone and isoproterenol.
