Fig. 3

Thiol metabolite levels (a Cysteine, b Cystathionine, c GSH, d GSSG, e GSH/GSSG) were measured in wild-type (WT) CHO cells and CHO cells transfected to express D4.2R, D4.4R, and D4.7R. Cells were treated with dopamine (10 µM; 30 min) (D), or the D4R-selective antagonist L-745870 (100 nM; 60 min) (L) or their combination (DL) (n = 3). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. Asterisks indicate significant differences from matched WT group (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01). ^ indicates significant difference from untreated control group (C) (^p < 0.05)
