Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Signatures of Progression and Phenoconversion in Prodromal Synucleinopathies

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Isolated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a prodromal manifestation of synucleinopathies and provides a critical window to identify early markers of progression to Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).

Dopamine-D1 and δ-opioid receptors co-exist in rat striatal neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cocaine’s enhancement of dopaminergic neurotransmission in the mesolimbic pathway plays a critical role in the initial reinforcing properties of this drug. However, other neurotransmitter systems are also integral to the addiction process.

The Fat Mass and Obesity-Associated Protein (FTO) Regulates Locomotor Responses to Novelty via D2R Medium Spiny Neurons

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Variations in the human FTO gene have been linked to obesity and altered connectivity of the dopaminergic neurocircuitry. Here, we report that fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) in dopamine D2 receptor-expressing medium spiny neurons (

Addictive-like behaviour for Acetaldehyde: involvement of D2 receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Acetaldehyde (ACD), ethanol's first metabolite, is centrally active and shows rewarding and motivational properties. It is able to activate mesolimbic dopamine system, since it enhances neuronal firing of dopamine cells in ventral tegmental area and ...

The G protein-coupled receptor heterodimer network (GPCR-HetNet) and its hub components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) oligomerization has emerged as a vital characteristic of receptor structure. Substantial experimental evidence supports the existence of GPCR-GPCR interactions in a coordinated and cooperative manner.

Morphological Changes in Direct Pathway Striatal Neurons in a Rat Model of Tardive Dyskinesia

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Tardive dyskinesia (TD) and drug‐induced parkinsonism (DIP) arise from prolonged dopamine antagonist use. Although D2 receptor hypersensitivity in the indirect pathway is a proposed mechanism, the role of the direct pathway remains unclear.

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,

Altered Dopamine Metabolism and Response to Treatment with Levodopa/Carbidopa in MCT8 Deficiency

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Allan‐Herndon‐Dudley syndrome (AHDS)/monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) deficiency is a rare X‐linked encephalopathy caused by SLC16A2 variants, impairing thyroid hormone (TH) transport into the brain. This leads to early central nervous system (CNS) TH deficiency, affecting brain maturation.

Changes in Dopamine Signalling Do Not Underlie Aberrant Hippocampal Plasticity in a Mouse Model of Huntington's Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Altered dopamine receptor labelling has been demonstrated in presymptomatic and symptomatic Huntington's disease (HD) gene carriers, indicating that alterations in dopaminergic signalling are an early event in HD.

Modifying Antibiotic Activity of Synthetic Thiadiazine Analogs Against MDR Bacteria and ADMET Analysis

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
The study demonstrated that thidiazine compounds potentiated the action of antibiotics. The compounds associated with norfloxacin against S. aureus showed greater significance in relation to the other medications. The indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to the selection of resistant bacterial strains, significantly reducing the effectiveness of ...
