“ Pergolide elicited a potent vasopressor response in pithed rats that was highly sensitive to antagonism by the selective alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonist, yohimbine , and resistant to blockade by the selective alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist, prazosin, suggesting that pergolide selectively activates postsynaptic vascular alpha 2-adrenoceptors.”
“The inhibitory actions of EPI, TL-99, and pergolide were blocked by the α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist yohimbine , whereas the DA receptor antagonist, sulpiride, had no effect, suggesting an action initiated at α2-adrenergic receptors.”
