Fig. 8. The seasonal effect of dopamine (DA) on 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)-induced
clearance rates. To induce maximal clearance during the initial run, gill
tissues were first exposed to 105 mol l1
5-HT for 5 min. Then, between the initial and treatment runs, the gills were
exposed to DA for 5 min. Data are the means (± s.e.m.) of the ratios of
the treatment rate to the maximal rate. Sample sizes ranged from 4 to 7 at
each concentration of DA. The regression lines are significantly different
(P<0.05).
