Antipsychotic Induced Dopamine Receptor Supersensitivity and It’s Clinical Implications
Background : Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder that requires multi-modal and continuous treatment, mainly with antipsychotic. Along with the increasing life expectancy of schizophrenic patients, various problems due to prolonged blocking of ...

Distinct regulation of dopamine D2S and D2L autoreceptor signaling by calcium
D2 autoreceptors regulate dopamine release throughout the brain. Two isoforms of the D2 receptor, D2S and D2L, are expressed in midbrain dopamine neurons. Differential roles of these isoforms as autoreceptors are poorly understood.

Fluorescent ligands for dopamine D2/D3 receptors [PDF]
AbstractFluorescent ligands are versatile tools for the study of G protein-coupled receptors. Depending on the fluorophore, they can be used for a range of different applications, including fluorescence microscopy and bioluminescence or fluorescence resonance energy transfer (BRET or FRET) assays.

SPLICEIT Fluorescent Sensor for Integrating Dopamine Release with Cellular Resolution
“Single‐chain protein‐based ligand indication through a chimerically‐engineered integrator tool” (SPLICEIT) is a G‐protein coupled receptor‐based sensor design that leaves a permanent fluorescent mark. We show dopamine detection in primary cultured neurons with a fourfold signal increase normalized to an mCherry (mCh) marker.

Synaptotagmin-1 is a Ca2+ sensor for somatodendritic dopamine release
Summary: Modes of somatodendritic transmission range from rapid synaptic signaling to protracted regulation over distance. Somatodendritic dopamine secretion in the midbrain leads to D2 receptor-induced modulation of dopamine neurons on the timescale of ...
