The effects of chronic lithium treatment on methylphenidate-, D1 dopamine receptor agonist (A-77636)-, and tactile stimulation-induced increases in frontal cortical acetylcholine release were studied in the rat using in vivo brain microdialysis. Cortical acetylcholine release in control rats was maximally
1. Homogenates of bovine retinas were used to study the capacities of two new dopamine (DA) receptor agonists, e.g. YM 435 and A 77636, to interact with D1 receptors. 2. Adenylate cyclase experiments. YM 435 and A 77636 enhanced cAMP

Cognitive impairment has been found across all subtypes of schizophrenia. The location and function of dopamine-1 receptors (D1Rs) make them attractive targets for the treatment of cognitive impairment in schizophrenia. Here we investigate the systemic effect of a D1R agonist
Recent data suggest that dopamine (DA) D1-like receptor full agonists may be potential pharmacotherapeutic agents for treating cocaine abuse. The structurally novel isochroman D1-like agonist, A-77636, has not been well characterized and may prove to be useful as such an

The nigrostriatal dopamine system of the mammalian brain is necessary for normal voluntary motor activity. Dopamine exerts its effects by acting on two primary receptor subtypes: D1-like (D1 and D5) and D2-like (D2, D3, and D4) receptors. Previous research has
