Lobeline and nicotine evoke [3H]overflow from rat striatal slices preloaded with [3H]dopamine ([3H]DA). The lobeline-evoked overflow is calcium-independent and not antagonized by mecamylamine, suggesting a mechanism of action other than the stimulation of nicotinic receptors. Whereas nicotine stimulates nicotinic receptors, lobeline inhibits [3H]DA uptake into synaptic vesicles and striatal synaptosomes. The results suggest that different mechanisms are responsible for the increase in striatal DA release evoked by lobeline and nicotine. [3H]-Dihydrotetrabenazine [3H]DTBZ), used routinely to probe a high-affinity binding site-on the vesicular monoamine transporter (VMAT2) binds to vesicle …
