| Abstract | Using electrophysiological techniques, we studied interactions of dopamine and selected dopaminergic drugs with serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes by RNAs transcribed from cloned cDNAs. Oocytes showing strong expression of 5-HT1c and 5-HT2 receptors became weakly responsive to the neurotransmitter dopamine, which, like 5-HT, elicited Cl- currents through activation of the phosphatidylinositol/Ca2+ messenger pathway. The two types of 5-HT receptors showed similar sensitivity to dopamine; threshold responses were activated at concentrations as low as 1 microM. However, maximum dopamine responses were only 5-20% of maximum responses activated by 5-HT. The dopamine D1 receptor antagonist SCH 23390 was a potent agonist on 5-HT1c and 5-HT2 receptors. SCH 23390 elicited currents at concentrations as low as 1 nM, but maximum responses were again only 5-20% of those activated by 5-HT. Fenoldopam, a dopamine D1 receptor agonist, also interacted with 5-HT1c and 5-HT2 receptors, eliciting threshold responses between 10 and 20 nM. Our experiments raise the possibility that low micromolar concentrations of dopamine can cause weak activation and concomitant desensitization of serotoninergic systems in vivo and demonstrate that benzazepines can interact with 5-HT receptors at nanomolar concentrations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
