Intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of noradrenaline (NA), dopamine (DA), apomorphine (APO) and BS 9641 pretreatment reduced duration but not magnitude of DA-effect. Two types of DA-receptors existed in pigeon for thermoregulation but APO acted on non-DA receptors. Effect of DA was partly due to its conversion into NA.
