Lesions to the dopamine (DA) system in early postnatal development have different behavioral consequences compared to lesions made in adulthood. Intrastriatal injections of the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) on the day of birth (PO) or postnatal day 1 (P1) produce a selective supersensitivity to D1 receptor agonists and a subsensitivity to D1 antagonists (Neal and Joyce, 1991a). In this paper, we describe the long-term effects of early DA loss on DA receptor regulation. Pups received bilateral intrastriatal injections of the neurotoxin 6-OHDA (4 micrograms per striatum) on PO or P1. Adult rats were killed at 90 days of age and the brains were processed for quantitative autoradiography (QAR) or tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunocytochemistry. Cohorts were tested for the behavioral responses to the selective D1 receptor agonist SKF38393 (10 mg/kg). Neonatally lesioned rats exhibited increases in abnormal perioral movements in response to D1 receptor stimulation. There was a heterogenous and patchy loss (40-50%) of [3H]mazindol binding to high-affinity DA uptake sites (a marker of DA terminal density) and a similar loss of TH-like immunoreactivity within the striata of the neonatally lesioned rats. There was also a reduction in the number of mu-opioid receptor patches (labelled with [3H]naloxone), a marker for the striatal patch compartment, and a similar patchy loss of D1 binding sites (labeled with [3H]SCH23390). The binding of [3H]spiroperidol to D2 sites was not altered. This is in contrast to the changes observed following adult 6-OHDA lesions, wherein there is a significant increase in the number of D2 binding sites (Joyce, 1991a,b). The results are discussed with respect to the behavioral consequences of neonatal lesions and the differences between neonatal and adult lesions.
