Intracellular recordings were obtained from rat neostriatal slices. Bath-applied dopamine (1-10 .mu.M) produced a reversible inhibition of the action potentials evoked by direct stimulation and a decrease in the amplitude of the intrastriatally evoked depolarizing postsynaptic potentials. No change in membrane potential was detected during the applciation of 1-10 .mu.M dopamine. Dopamine application also produced a decrease in anomalous rectification in the depolarizing direction. This subthreshold inward rectification was abolsihed by tetrodotoxin, but not by calcium-free and cadmium (0.1-1 mM)-containing solutions. The dopamine-induced decrease in excitatory postsynaptic potential amplitude was evident at resting membrane potential or at more positive levels, but was absent at hyperpolarized values of the membrane potential. Addition of bicuculline (50-500 .mu.M) to the medium did not affect the inhibitory action of dopamine. The inhibitory action of dopamine also persisted in calcium-free and cadmium-containing solutions. The adenosine 3'',5''-cyclic monophosphate analogue, 8-bromo-adenosine 3'',5''-cyclic monophosphate (0.1- mM), mimicked the effects produced by D1 receptor activation. Bath application of 2,3,5,5-tetrahydro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-phenyl-1H-3-benzazepine (SKF 38393) (1-10 .mu.M), a selective D1 dopaminergic agonist, mimicked the effects of micromolar concentrations of doapmine. The D2 doapminergic agonists, 4,4a,5,6,7,8,8a,9-octahydro-5-n-propyl-2-H-pyrazolo-3,4-g-quinoline (LY 171555) and bromocriptine (both at 10 nM-10 .mu.M), had no effects on neostratal cells. The inhibition induced by micromolar doses of dopamine or SKF 38393 was antagonized by bath applications of R-(+)-8-chloro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-methyl-5-phenyl-1H-3-benzazepin-7-ol (SCH 23390; 0.1-10 .mu.M), a D1-selective antagonist, but not by sulpiride (10 nM-10 .mu.M), a D2 antagonist. We conclude that the inhibitory effect of dopamine on rat striatal neurons is postsynaptically mediated by the activation of D1 dopaminergic receptors via the reduction of a voltage-dependent tetrodotoxin-sensitive inward conductance.
