The dopaminergic treatment represents the primary treatment in prolactinomas, which are the most common pituitary adenomas and account for about 40% of all pituitary tumours with an annual incidence of six to ten cases per million population.

Binge Eating and Compulsive Buying During Cabergoline Treatment for Prolactinoma: A Case Report
Prolactinomas are the most prevalent functional pituitary adenomas. They are usually treated clinically with dopamine agonists. The most widely used and suitable drug is cabergoline (CAB), a specific D2 dopamine agonists.

TAAR1 in Addiction: Looking Beyond the Tip of the Iceberg
Trace-amine associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) is the best-characterized member of the family of TAARs. TAAR1 is broadly expressed in the brain, especially within the monoaminergic systems.

Prolactinomas Resistant to Treatment With Dopamine Agonists: Long-Term Follow-Up of Six Cases
Introduction: Prolactinomas are preferentially treated with dopamine agonists. However, a few adenomas are resistant to this treatment.Objective: To evaluate the characteristics of patients with resistance to dopamine agonists in the long-term.Method: A ...

Dopamine receptor subtypes and ingestive behaviour [PDF]
Both centrally and systemically administered dopamine agonists and antagonists decrease ingestive behaviour. The aim of this thesis was to examine whether drugs acting at different receptor subtypes decreased intake in different ways.

Experience with Dopamine Agonists in the Treatment of Prolactinomas
The article is devoted to the conservative treatment of hyperprolactinemia of tumor origin. Cabergoline is considered as an effective treatment not only for microadenomas but also for large pituitary tumors which is illustrated by the clinical case of ...

Development of novel ligands influencing neurotransmission in the central nervous system [PDF]
The development of novel drugs targeting GPCRs is of particular interest since modulation of subfamilies of this receptor class highly influences neurotransmission in the central nervous system.

Modulation of Adenylyl Cyclase Activity in Rat Striatal Homogenate by Dopaminergic Receptors
We have characterized the modulation of adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity by ligands of dopaminergic receptors in rat striatal homogenate and compared the results with receptor-ligand binding affinities.
