Cells were incubated for 20 min with no drugs, forskolin (10 μM), apomorphine (1 μM), or both apomorphine and forskolin, with or without PTX pretreatment (10 ng/ml, 4 to 6 h). Percent inhibition of apomorphine action was calculated as described in Materials and Methods. The data are expressed as mean ± SEM of four independent experiments (n = 4) and were analyzed by repeated-measures analysis of variance with Bonferroni multiple comparison posttest (*, P < 0.05; (NS), not significant; PTX treatment compared to no PTX treatment). In all clones, basal and forskolin-induced cAMP levels were not significantly different from levels in nontransfected BALB-D2S cells.
