| Popis: | Aim of the present study was to investigate possible differences between the human dopamine D4 receptor 48 bp polymorphism variants hD4.2, hD.4. and hD4.7 in agonist stimulated [ 35 S]GTPγS binding, to investigate dopamine D4 receptor sodium sensitivity and to further characterize norepinephrine and epinephrine agonism at this receptor. G-protein activation at the receptor variants hD4.2, hD4.4 and hD4.7 expressed in CHO-K1 cells, following stimulation by dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine, was investigated using the [ 35 S]GTPγS assay at experimental conditions of 10 and 100 mM sodium, respectively. Dopamine displayed a 2 fold higher potency of stimulating [ 35 S]GTPγS binding at the hD4.2, compared to the hD4.4 and hD4.7 at 10 mM sodium. A significant difference in sodium sensitivity of basal [ 35 S]GTPγS binding was found, with the hD4.7 being 1.7 fold more sensitive than the hD4.4 and 2.5 fold more sensitive than the hD4.2. Norepinephrine and epinephrine both produced concentration-dependent increases in [ 35 S]GTPγS binding at all three receptor variants, and epinephrine showed only 2 fold less potency than dopamine. The present results are in certain line with previous reports of functional 2–3 fold differences between the dopamine D4 receptor variants. Agonism of norepinephrine and epinephrine at the dopamine D4 receptor may indicate an important way of cross-reactivity among the different monoamine neurotransmitter systems. |
