Somatostatin was incubated in an adenylate cyclase assay of a particulate fraction of caudate-putamen tissue of the rat in order to examine the effect of the peptide on D-1 receptor coupled adenylate cyclase in vitro. Somatostatin was able to enhance cyclic AMP formation in the presence of guanylylimidodiphosphate and guanosine-triphosphate. In contrast to this, somatostatin inhibited both dopamine and forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation. Pertussis toxin and cholera toxin also depressed forskolin-induced stimulation. Somatostatin was found to antagonize these inhibitory effects of pertussis toxin and cholera toxin. The results suggest that somatostatin acts through a stimulatory as well as an inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein subtype to affect dopaminergic adenylate cyclase activity.
