To elucidate the role of dopamine as a neuromediator in the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion, investigations were carried out with dopaminergic pharmacology drugs on male white Wistar rats. In the first series of experiments, the effects of 200 mg/kg body wt L-DOPA, of the combination of 200 mg/kg L-DOPA and 50 mg/kg body wt carbidopa, and of 2.5 mg/kg body wt bromocriptine, after a single intraperitoneal injection of ACTH in the serum of rats after 30, 90 and 120 min, following the injection, were studied. In the second series of experiments, the effect of 200 mg/kg body wt L-DOPA, of the combination of 200 mg/kg body wt L-DOPA and 50 mg/kg body wt carbidopa, of 1 mg/kg body wt bromocriptine, after intraperitoneal injection, on the concentration of ACTH in the serum within 7 days, were assessed. The inhibition of agonists of dopamine after ACTH secretion with repeated application has been shown. Using a radioimmunology assay with test kits, the amount of ACTH in the serum was determined.
