Gene Information

rat ... Htr1a(24473)

Application

GR 103691 has been used as a D3 receptor antagonist to test its:
  • inducing effect on prepulse inhibition (PPI)
  • suppressive effect of motor behavior in rats
  • inhibitory effect on chemotaxis in newly excysted juvenile C. sinensis (CsNEJs)

Biochem/physiol Actions

GR 103691 increases the monosynaptic “stretch” reflex (MSR) amplitude in mice by its potent D3 receptor antagonist functionality. It inhibits the PD 128,907 mediated γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) release.
D3 dopamine receptor antagonist.

Neurosteroids exert diverse modulatory actions on dopamine neurotransmission and signaling. We previously documented that the enzyme 5α-reductase, which catalyzes the main rate-limiting step in neurosteroid synthesis, is required for the behavioral responses of Sprague-Dawley rats to non-selective dopaminergic agonists, such

The firing rate of substantia nigra reticulata (SNr) neurons is modulated by GABA release from striatonigral and pallidonigral projections. This release is, in turn, modulated by dopamine acting on dopamine D1 receptors at striatonigral terminals and D4 receptors at pallidonigral
