Repeated treatments with a dopamine (DA) D2receptor agonist result in the induction of DA D2receptor supersensitivity, as evidenced by enhanced behavioral responses to subsequent D2agonist treatments—a phenomenon known asprimingof receptors. Priming of D2receptors has been well-studied in otherwise intact (non-lesioned) rats. In contrast to D2priming, repeated treatments with a DA D1agonist are unable to prime D1receptors unless nigrostriatal DA fibers are largely destroyed in early postnatal ontogeny. In order to determine if D2receptors could be primed in rats in which nigrostriatal DA fibers were largely destroyed in early postnatal ontogeny, rats were (a) lesioned at 3 days after birth with 6-hydroxydopamine (67 μg in each lateral ventricle; desipramine, 20 mg/kg IP, 1 h; 6-OHDA), (b) treated daily for the first 28 days after birth with the D2agonist quinpirole HCl (3.0 mg/kg IP), and (c) observed in adulthood for both quinpirole-induced and SKF 38393- (D1agonist-) induced locomotor activity and stereotyped activities. In 6-OHDA-lesioned rats in which endogenous striatal DA was reduced by 99%, quinpirole did not produce enhanced locomotor or stereotyped activities. However, SKF 38393 produced increased locomotor and stereotyped activities even after the first dose of SKF 38393. These findings demonstrate that D2receptors are not primed by ontogenetic quinpirole treatments of neonatally 6-OHDA-lesioned rats, although D2agonist treatments do at least partially prime D1receptors in 6-OHDA-lesioned rats.
