Despite a great deal of research, the second messenger coupling of the
dopamine D3 receptor has not yet been clearly established. The closely related D2 and D4 receptors have
been shown to inhibit adenylyl cyclase activity in a variety of cell
types, but the D3 receptor has little or no effect on this
second messenger system. We now demonstrate that when the
D3 receptor and adenylyl cyclase type V are coexpressed in
293 cells, the agonist quinpirole causes 70% inhibition of
forskolin-stimulated cAMP levels. This effect seems to be selective for
this adenylyl cyclase isoform because the D3 receptor does
not inhibit adenylyl cyclase types I or VI and only weakly stimulates
adenylyl cyclase type II. In contrast, the D2 receptor
inhibits cAMP accumulation in 293 cells in the absence of cotransfected
adenylyl cyclases and stimulates adenylyl cyclase type II to a greater
extent than the D3 receptor. The inhibition of adenylyl
cyclase type V by the D3 receptor is sensitive to pertussis
toxin, suggesting the involvement of G proteins of the Gi
family. Guanosine-5
-O-(3-thio)triphosphate binding
studies indicate that the D3 receptor weakly activates all
three Gi
subunits, whereas the D2 receptor
activates these G proteins to a substantially greater extent. However,
despite its relative inability to promote G protein activation, the
D3 receptor is capable of substantial and consistent
inhibition of adenylyl cyclase type V. The robust second messenger
coupling of the D3 receptor in a heterologous system with
defined components provides a system for further studies of the
function of this receptor and should facilitate the development and
characterization of new D3 receptor ligands.
