Kappa-opioid receptor signaling in the striatum as a potential modulator of dopamine transmission in cocaine dependence

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2013
Cocaine addiction is accompanied by a decrease in striatal dopamine signaling, measured as a decrease in dopamine D2 receptor binding as well as blunted dopamine release in the striatum. These alterations in dopamine transmission have clinical relevance,

D1 Dopamine Receptor Activation Induces Neuronal eEF2 Pathway-Dependent Protein Synthesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
Dopamine, alongside other neuromodulators, defines brain and neuronal states, inter alia through regulation of global and local mRNA translation. Yet, the signaling pathways underlying the effects of dopamine on mRNA translation and psychiatric disorders

In-Pocket 3D Graphs Enhance Ligand-Target Compatibility in Generative Small-Molecule Creation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Proteins in complex with small molecule ligands represent the core of structure-based drug discovery. However, three-dimensional representations are absent from most deep-learning-based generative models. We here present a graph-based generative modeling technology that encodes explicit 3D protein-ligand contacts within a relational graph architecture.

Brain state stability during working memory is explained by network control theory, modulated by dopamine D1/D2 receptor function, and diminished in schizophrenia [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Dynamical brain state transitions are critical for flexible working memory but the network mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here, we show that working memory entails brainwide switching between activity states. The stability of states relates to dopamine D1 receptor gene expression while state transitions are influenced by D2 receptor expression
