Abstract
PCBs have long been known to affect dopamine (DA) function in the brain. The current study used an amphetamine behavioral sensitization paradigm in rats developmentally exposed to PCBs. Long-Evans rats were given perinatal exposure to 0, 3, or 6mg/kg/day PCBs and behavioral sensitization to d-amphetamine (AMPH) was assessed in one adult male and female/litter. Non-exposed (control) males showed increasing locomotor activity to repeated injections of 0.5mg/kg AMPH, typical of behavioral sensitization. PCB-exposed males showed greater activation to the initial acute AMPH injection, but sensitization occurred later and was blunted relative to controls. Sensitization in control females took longer to develop than in the males, but no exposure-related differences were observed. Analysis of whole brain and serum AMPH content following a final IP injection of 0.5mg/kg revealed no differences among the exposure groups. Overall, these results indicated developmental PCB exposure can alter the motor-stimulating effects of repeated AMPH injections. Males developmentally exposed to PCBs appeared to be pre-sensitized to AMPH, but quickly showed behavioral tolerance to the same drug dose. Results also revealed the behavioral effect was not due to exposure-induced alterations in AMPH metabolism following PCB exposure.

Abstract
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants that have been demonstrated to be toxic to the dopamine (DA) systems of the central nervous system. One proposed mechanism for PCB-induced DA neurotoxicity is inhibition of the vesicular monoamine transporter (VMAT); such inhibition results in increased levels of unsequestered DA and DA metabolism leading to oxidative stress. We have used an organotypic co-culture system of developing rat striatum and ventral mesencephalon (VM) to determine whether alterations in the vesicular storage of DA, resulting from PCB exposure and consequent induction of oxidative stress, leads to GABA and DA neuronal dysfunction. Twenty-four-hour exposure to an environmentally relevant mixture of PCBs reduced tissue DA and GABA concentrations, increased medium levels of DA and measures of oxidative stress in both the striatum and VM. Alterations in neurochemistry and increases in measures of oxidative stress were blocked in the presence of n-acetylcysteine (NAC). Although NAC treatment did not alter PCB-induced changes in DA neurochemistry, it did protect against reductions in GABA concentration. To determine whether alterations in the vesicular storage of DA were responsible for PCB-induced oxidative stress and consequent reductions in GABA levels, we depleted DA from the co-cultures using alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine (AMPT). AMPT reduced striatal and VM DA levels by 90% and 70%, respectively. PCB exposure, following DA depletion, neither increased levels of oxidative stress nor resulted in GABA depletion. These results suggest that PCB-induced alterations in the vesicular storage of DA, resulting in increased levels of unsequestered DA, leads to increased oxidative stress, depletion of tissue glutathione, and consequent reductions in tissue GABA concentrations.

Abstract
[3H]-dopamine ([3H]-DA) uptake was measured in the presence or absence of the catecholamine uptake inhibitor nomifensine in both unfertilized and fertilized eggs. Specific [3H]-DA uptake depended on time and [3H]-DA concentration; it was high in unfertilized eggs, declined 20-30 min after fertilization, and rose again during cleavage. Irreversible inactivation of dopamine receptors by N-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ) resulted in a complete loss of sensitivity of egg adenylate cyclase to dopamine stimulation. In fertilized eggs treated with EEDQ for 1 hr, restoration of adenylate cyclase activity sensitive to dopamine stimulation could be observed 4 hr after the end of treatment, thus suggesting the appearance of new dopamine receptors in cleaving eggs. Short-term EEDQ treatment on unfertilized eggs, although not impairing fertilization, resulted in cleavage inhibition; the same treatment carried out soon after fertilization, on the other hand, elicited no effect on development. On the contrary, in embryos subjected to continuous treatment with EEDQ, development was impaired independent of the stage at which the treatment was started.

Abstract
Our aim has been to investigate the ability of the rat brain to retain its level of neurotransmitter release over life. We have investigated the neurotransmitter release from the rat brain synaptosomes prelabeled with 3H-DA, 3H-NA, or 3H-5HT, and perfused with Krebs-Ringer medium alone (basal release) or containing a high K+, calcium ionophore, tyramine or amphetamine (evoked release). Brain areas have been dissected of animals 45 days and 4, 6, and 11 months old. The results have shown a gradual reduction of the 3H-NA release evoked by a high K+ from 45 days to 6 months, which is stabilized until 11 months of age. The reduction rate has been relatively different from the brain areas investigated (36% for the frontal cortex and 26% for the hippocampus and cerebellar cortex). A similar reduction has been seen with 3H-5HT released from synaptosomes of the frontal cortex, hippocampus, and striatum. Surprisingly, the 3H-DA release that was evoked by high K+ was greater in rats 11 months old than in younger rats; this effect has been seen in synaptosomes from the caudate and the frontal cortex. The calcium ionophore A23187 has shown a releasing picture similar to a high K+. When we analyzed a nonexocitotic, but probably carrier mediated, release (evoked by tyramine or amphetamine), there was reduced release of all of the above neurotransmitters from 45 days to 11 months of age. We presume that there have been adaptive changes in neurotransmitter evoked release due to changes in Ca++ utilization, as inferred from the results from calcium ionophore experiments and carrier performance.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The regulation of histamine synthesis was studied on rat brain slices or synaptosomes labeled with L-[3H]histidine. Depolarization by increased extracellular K+ concentration enhanced by about twofold the [3H]histamine formation in slices of cerebral cortex. This stimulation was also observed, although to a lesser extent, in synaptosomes from cerebral cortex and slices from the posterior hypothalamus where most histaminergic cell-bodies are located, suggesting that it may occur in nerve endings as well as in perikarya. In the presence of exogenous histamine in increasing concentrations the K+-induced stimulation was progressively reduced by up to 60-70%. The effect of exogenous histamine appears to be receptor-mediated as shown by its saturable character, high pharmacological specificity and competitive reversal by histamine antagonists. The EC50 value of histamine for synthesis reduction (0.34 +/- 0.03 microM) was similar to its EC50 value for release inhibition known to be mediated by H3-receptors. In addition, whereas mepyramine and tiotidine, two potent antagonists at H1- and H2-receptors, respectively, were poorly effective, the H3-receptor antagonists burimamide and impromidine reversed the histamine effect in an apparently competitive manner. These effects were observed in slices of cerebral cortex or posterior hypothalamus as well as in cortical synaptosomes. Furthermore, even in the absence of added histamine, H3-receptor antagonists enhanced the depolarization-induced stimulation of [3H]histamine synthesis, indicating a participation of released endogenous histamine in the synthesis control process. The potencies of H3-receptor antagonists were similar to those of these agents at presynaptic autoreceptors controlling [3H]histamine release. It is concluded that H3-receptors control not only release but also synthesis of histamine at the level of nerve endings and also, presumably, of perikarya. A relationship between the two regulatory processes, possibly via intracellular calcium, seems likely but remains to be investigated at the molecular level.

Abstract
Amphetamine (AMPH) releases dopamine (DA) from striatal synaptosomes and concomitantly increases DA synthesis. Since AMPH may release DA through carrier-mediated diffusion via reversal of the DA uptake system, the increase in DA synthesis might depend on a functioning uptake carrier. Consistent with such a mechanism, the uptake inhibitors nomifensine (NMF) and benztropine (BZT) completely prevented the AMPH-induced increase in DA synthesis at concentrations known to inhibit DA uptake. Changes in the Na+ gradient across the synaptosomal membrane also promote DA release, since DA and Na+ are cotransported by the neuronal uptake carrier. Incubation of synaptosomes in medium containing decreasing Na+ increased DA synthesis inversely proportional to Na+ over the range 128 to 20 mM. Similarly, incubations in the presence of 10(-4) M ouabain to inhibit Na+, K+-ATPase and allow intracellular accumulation of Na+ also increased DA synthesis. These changes in DA synthesis could also be prevented by BZT and were non-additive with the AMPH-induced increase in DA synthesis. However, a concentration of ouabain (10(-6) M) which by itself did not increase DA synthesis, and does not promote DA release, potentiated the AMPH-induced increase in DA synthesis. Further, the increased DA synthesis promoted by all three manipulations was only marginally dependent on the presence of Ca2+ in the incubation medium. However, at 5 and 10 mM Na+, a second component of increased DA synthesis was observed which was insensitive to BZT, but was prevented by Ca2+ removal. These results suggest that the increase in DA synthesis, and presumably DA release promoted by AMPH, lowered Na+, and ouabain, depend on the availability of the DA carrier at the internal face of the neuronal membrane and the intracellular content of Na+. The second component of increased DA synthesis which is evident at 5 and 10 mM Na+ is discussed in terms of a possible Ca2+-mediated change in DA synthesis which is independent of the DA carrier.

Abstract
Ovariectomized rats injected with progesterone (50 micrograms s.c.) showed a peak in striatum dopamine (DA) concentration after 15 min followed by a decrease at 60-75 min and a return to control values 90 min after the steroid injection. The DA metabolites dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA) were increased after the progesterone injection, with a peak at 45 min and a return to control values after about 2 h. Striatum serotonin (5-HT) concentrations remained unchanged after the progesterone injection while its metabolite 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) was increased at 45 min and returned to control values after 2 h. The peak plasma progesterone concentration occurred 15-30 min after the steroid injection while estradiol concentrations were unchanged indicating no significant conversion of progesterone into estradiol. A similar experiment was performed in male rats. As with female rats, a progesterone injection led to a progesterone peak at 30 min while plasma estradiol levels remained unchanged. Male rats responded to the progesterone injection with a maximal increase of DA, DOPAC and HVA concentrations as soon as after 15 min and these amines remained elevated up to 75 min after the steroid injection. 5-HT and 5-HIAA remained unchanged after the progesterone injection. Thus, very small physiological doses of progesterone can increase striatum dopaminergic activity in rats of both sexes while serotonergic activity is influenced only in female rats. This effect is seen within minutes and is relatively short. It is probably non-genomic, presynaptic and similar to the effect of a small dose of a DA releasing agent.

Abstract
The enantiomers of apomorphine (APO) inhibited dopamine synthesis in rat striatal synaptosomes, with R(-)-APO being about twice as potent as S(+)-APO. Sulpiride, a DA receptor antagonist, partially antagonized the inhibitory effects of only (-)-APO, suggesting that (-)-APO's, but not (+)-APO's, effects on dopamine synthesis may be at least partially receptor-mediated. The addition of 6-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterine (6-MPH4), an artificial cofactor for tyrosine hydroxylase, partially antagonized the inhibitory effects of both enantiomers, being considerably more effective against the (+)enantiomer. These data suggest that the APO enantiomers may directly inhibit enzymes within the synaptosome which regulate dopamine synthesis. Furthermore, investigations measuring DA synthesis rates in synaptosomes that had been pre-incubated with (-)-APO and then washed to remove the (-)-APO in the medium, indicate that (-)-APO may be retained by synaptosomes. Preliminary studies measuring the accumulation of [3H](-)-APO by synaptosomes also suggest that synaptosomes can accumulate APO. Although both APO enantiomers suppressed DA synthesis in vitro, only (-)-APO reduced striatal DA metabolite concentrations in vivo, and this reduction was prevented by haloperidol, a DA receptor antagonist. In addition, 6-MPH4 prevented the decrease in the DA metabolite 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) produced by (-)-APO but not the decrease in the DA metabolite homovanillic acid (HVA).

Abstract
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) activity was determined by measuring the formation of [3H]DOPA from [3,5-3H]tyrosine in the crude synaptosomal fraction of the nucleus accumbens under conditions preventing dopamine reuptake in 30 mM K+-containing medium. TH seems to be allosterically activated under depolarizing conditions: a 4.4 fold decrease of the Km value for tyrosine of the synaptosomal TH was observed. Synaptosomal TH activity was inhibited concentration dependently by dopamine and apomorphine resulting in IC50 values of 0.4 and 0.25 microM, respectively. The maximal inhibitory effects of dopamine as well as apomorphine were about 50% of the controls. The dopamine-induced inhibition was completely antagonized by neuroleptics. The rank order of antagonistic potencies was haloperidol greater than clozapine greater than sulpiride (with increasing EC50); methiothepine was ineffective. Moreover, synaptosomal TH activity was inhibited by serotonin in a concentration-dependent manner (IC50 = 0.8 microM). This inhibition was completely antagonized by methiothepine while, on the other hand, haloperidol was ineffective. The experimental system demonstrated here appears to be suitable for estimating the presynaptic dopamine and serotonin antagonistic potencies of drugs.

Abstract
Regulation of the rate-limiting step in dopamine (DA) synthesis was estimated in striatal synaptosomes by measuring the rate of hydroxylation of L-4-[3H]phenylalanine, a substrate of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). DA inhibited hydroxylation with an IC50 of 0.2 microM. The concentration-response curve of DA-induced inhibition was not affected by the presence of 1 microM chlorpromazine, a phenothiazine DA antagonist. Sulpiride and haloperidol, DA antagonists of the benzamide and butyrophenone classes respectively, also failed to alter the inhibition of substrate hydroxylation by 1 microM DA, even at concentrations up to 10 microM. In contrast, a parallel 15 fold shift to the right in the concentration-response curve of DA-induced inhibition of hydroxylation was obtained when 10 microM nomifensine, a competitive DA uptake inhibitor, was added. Even in the presence of nomifensine, 1 microM chlorpromazine had no effect on the DA concentration-response curve. The addition of DMPH4, an artificial cofactor for TH, completely blocked DA-induced inhibition of enzymatic activity. These data suggest that direct autoreceptor control of synaptosomal TH activity does not exist in vitro, and that DA-induced inhibition of TH occurs subsequent to reuptake via classical feedback inhibition, presumably by competitive displacement of the necessary endogenous cofactor.

Abstract
Factors affecting dopamine (DA) synthesis in rat striatal synaptosomes were examined by measuring the conversion of [3H]tyrosine (Tyr) to [3H]DA. Any [3H]DA that was synthesized was extracted into a toluene-based scintillation cocktail and quantitated by liquid scintillation spectrometry. The extraction was facilitated using di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (DEHP), a liquid cation exchanger. DA, apomorphine, and other DA agonists were much less potent inhibitors of DA synthesis in striatal synaptosomes at pH 6.2 than at pH 7.2. 3-(3-Hydroxyphenyl)-N-n-propylpiperidine (3-PPP), a putative DA autoreceptor agonist, was inactive at pH 6.2. However, at pH 7.2, 3-PPP did inhibit DA synthesis. This inhibition was reversed by sulpiride, a DA receptor antagonist, but not by benztropine, a DA uptake blocker, suggesting that 3-PPP inhibits DA synthesis by stimulating the DA autoreceptor. DA release from synaptosomes was much greater at pH 6.2 than at pH 7.2, most probably because the synaptosomal membrane appears to be depolarized at pH 6.2, as measured by the accumulation of [3H]tetraphenylphosphonium ions. Since tyrosine hydroxylase is inhibited by DA, this finding suggested that low assay buffer pH (i.e., pH 6.2) might interfere with the ability of 3-PPP and other DA agonists to inhibit DA synthesis, by promoting DA release. Likewise, reserpine and tetrabenazine, compounds which disrupt vesicular DA storage, were much less effective inhibitors of DA synthesis at pH 6.2 (high basal DA release). Moreover, D-amphetamine and high buffer potassium concentrations, treatments which promote DA release, also interfered with the ability of 3-PPP to inhibit DA synthesis. Thus, modulation of the release of DA in equilibrium with tyrosine hydroxylase may be a mechanism by which the DA autoreceptor regulates DA synthesis.

Abstract
Lisuride, an ergot D2 dopamine receptor agonist inhibited dopamine synthesis in striatal synaptosomes concentration-dependently. Significant inhibition was detected at 10(-8) M, and the inhibition by 10(-4) M lisuride was 50%. The inhibitory effect of lisuride was reversed by more than 50% not only by the D1-D2 dopamine receptor blocker haloperidol but also by the D2 dopamine receptor blocker(-)-sulpiride. The effect of sulpiride was stereospecific. Under the same test conditions a similar inhibition of dopamine synthesis by apomorphine was reversed by the neuroleptics almost completely. The results suggest that there are dopamine autoreceptors controlling dopamine synthesis in synaptosomes and these receptors resemble D2 dopamine receptors according to the nomenclature of Kebabian and Calne (1979).
