The distribution of dopamine D1 receptor and μ-opioid receptor 1 receptor immunoreactivities in the amygdala and interstitial nucleus of the posterior limb of the anterior commissure: Relationships to tyrosine hydroxylase and opioid peptide terminal syste
چکیده انگلیسی

Mismatches between dopamine innervation and dopamine D1 receptor (D1) distribution have previously been demonstrated in the intercalated cell masses of the rat amygdala. Here the distribution of enkephalin and β-endorphin immunoreactive (IR) nerve terminals with respect to their μ-opioid receptors is examined in the intercalated cell masses, along with a further immunohistochemical analysis of the dopamine/D1 mismatches. A similar analysis is also made within the extended amygdala.A spatial mismatch in distribution patterns was found between the μ-opioid receptor-1 immunoreactivity and enkephalin IR in the main intercalated island of the amygdala. Discrete cell patches of dopamine D1 receptor and μ-opioid receptor-1 IR were also identified in a distinct region of the extended amygdala, the interstitial nucleus of the posterior limb of the anterior commissure, medial division (IPACM), which displayed sparse tyrosine hydroxylase or enkephalin/β-endorphin IR nerve terminals. Furthermore, distinct regions of the main intercalated island that showed dopamine/D1 receptor matches (the rostral and rostrolateral parts) were associated with strong dopamine and cyclic AMP regulated phosphoprotein, 32 kDa-IR in several D1 IR neuronal cell bodies and dendrites, whereas this was not the case for the dopamine/D1 mismatch areas (the rostromedial and caudal parts) of the main intercalated island.The lack of correlation between the terminal/receptor distribution patterns suggests a role for volume transmission for μ-opioid receptor- and dopamine D1 receptor-mediated transmission in distinct regions of the amygdala and extended amygdala. This may have implications for amygdaloid function, where slow long lasting responses may develop as a result of volume transmission operating in opioid peptide and dopaminergic communication.
