- Despite the importance of dopamine signaling, it remains unknown if the two major subclasses of dopamine receptors exist on the same or distinct populations of neurons. Here we used confocal microscopy to demonstrate that virtually all striatal neurons, both in vitro and in vivo, contained dopamine receptors of both classes. We also provide functional evidence for such colocalization: in essentially all neurons examined, fenoldopam, an agonist of the D-1 subclass of receptors, inhibited both the Na+/K+ pump and tetrodotoxin (TTX)-sensitive sodium channels, and quinpirole, an agonist of the Dr subclass of receptors, activated TTX-sensitive sodium channels. Thus D-1 and D-2 classes of ligands may functionally interact in virtually all dopamine-responsive neurons within the basal ganglia.

- Renal dopamine1 receptor (D1R) can be recruited from intracellular compartments to the plasma membrane by D1R agonists and endogenous dopamine. This study examines the role of the cytoskeleton for renal D1R recruitment. The studies were performed in LLCPK-1 cells that have the capacity to form dopamine from L-dopa. In approximately 50% of the cells treated with L-dopa the D1R was found to be translocated from intracellular compartments towards the plasma membrane. Disruption of the microtubulin network by noco-dazole significantly prevented translocation. In contrast, depolymerization of actin had no effect. In control cells D1R colocalized with NBD-C-6-ceramide, a trans-Golgi fluorescent marker. This colocalization was disrupted in L-dopa-treated cells. Tetanus toxin, an inhibitor of exocytosis, prevented L-dopa-induced receptor recruitment. L-Dopa treatment resulted in activation of protein kinase C (PKC). To test the functional effect of D1R recruitment, the capacity of D1R agonists to activate PKC was studied. Activation of D1R significantly translocated PKC-alpha from intracellular compartments to the plasma membrane. Disruption of microtubules abolished D1R-mediated - but not phorbol-ester-mediated - translocation of PKC. We conclude that renal D1R recruitment requires an intact microtubulin network and occurs via Golgi-derived vesicles. These newly recruited receptors couple to the PKC signaling pathway.

- Glutamate, by activating N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, alters the balance between dopamine D1 and D2 receptor signaling, but the mechanism responsible for this effect has not been known. We report here, using immunocytochemistry of primary cultures of rat neostriatal neurons, that activation of NMDA receptors recruits D1 receptors from the interior of the cell to the plasma membrane while having no effect on the distribution of D2 receptors. The D1 receptors were concentrated in spines as shown by colocalization with phalloidin-labeled actin filaments. The effect of NMDA on D1 receptors was abolished by incubation of cells in calcium-free medium and was mimicked by the calcium ionophore lonomycin. Recruitment of D1 receptors from the interior of the cell to the membrane was confirmed by subcellular fractionation. The recruited D1 receptors were functional as demonstrated by an increase in dopamine-sensitive adenylyl cyclase activity in membranes derived from cells that had been pretreated with NMDA. These results provide evidence for regulated recruitment of a G protein-coupled receptor in neurons, provide a cell biological basis for the effect of NMDA on dopamine signaling, and reconcile the conflicting hyperdopaminergic and hypoglutamatergic hypotheses of schizophrenia.
