The present work is focused on the effects of newly developed dopaminergic agonists and antagonists on the field-stimulated vas deferens. Both LY 171555 and SK&F 38393, relatively selective DA2 and DA1 receptor agonists, respectively, produced concentration-dependent inhibition of the field stimulation-evoked contractions in the mouse vas deferens; both compounds did not modify the baseline tone nor the contractile responses to exogenous noradrenaline. Control LY 171555 and SK&F 38393 concentration-response curves, were shifted rightward in a parallel manner in the presence of sulpiride (relatively specific DA2 antagonist) and SCH 23390 (relatively specific DA1 antagonist), respectively. Control concentration-response curves for dopaminergic agonists were not modified in the presence of specific blockers for H1 and H2 histamine receptors, serotonin receptors and alpha 2-adrenoceptors. These preliminary findings are suggestive of the existence of two dopaminergic receptor types both presumably located prejunctionally.
