Naloxone significantly enhanced the release of radioactive acetylcholine ([3H]ACh) from rat striatal slices loaded with [3H]choline either when the nigrostriatal pathway had been destroyed by 6-hydroxydopamine or when the D2 dopamine receptors had been inhibited by sulpiride. This in vitro study supplies the first neurochemical evidence, that, in addition to D2-receptor-mediated dopaminergic tonic control, there is opiate-receptor mediated presynaptic modulation of striatal ACh release, possibly by endogenous enkephalin released from local neurons. Such modulation occurs under conditions in which the dopaminergic input is impaired.
