Abundant immunohistochemical expression of dopamine D2 receptor and p53 protein in meningiomas: follow-up, relation to gender, age, tumor grade, and recurrence [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2015
Meningiomas are common, usually benign tumors, with a high postoperative recurrence rate. However, the genesis and development of these tumors remain controversial.

Initial d2 dopamine receptor sensitivity predicts cocaine sensitivity and reward in rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The activation of dopamine receptors within the mesolimbic dopamine system is known to be involved in the initiation and maintenance of cocaine use. Expression of the D2 dopamine receptor subtype has been implicated as both a predisposing factor and ...

Toward precision nutrition: A cross‐sectional study on the genetic risks of nutrients deficiencies and eating behaviors among the Orang Asli and Malays

open access: yesPrecision Medical Sciences, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 146-154, December 2022., 2022
Toward precision nutrition: Genetic risks of nutrients deficiencies and eating behaviors among the Orang Asli and Malays. Abstract This cross‐sectional study aimed to profile 15 genetic markers associated with the risks of nutrient deficiencies and eating disinhibition behaviors that could lead to obesity among the Orang Asli (OA) and the Malays.

Regulation of Neuromodulator Receptor Efficacy - Implications for Whole-Neuron and Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Neurobiology 72(6), pp 399-415, April 2004, 2004
Membrane receptors for neuromodulators (NM) are highly regulated in their distribution and efficacy - a phenomenon which influences the individual cell's response to central signals of NM release. Even though NM receptor regulation is implicated in the pharmacological action of many drugs, and is also known to be influenced by various environmental ...

Functional variants of the dopamine receptor D2 gene modulate prefronto-striatal phenotypes in schizophrenia.

open access: yesBrain : a journal of neurology, 2009
Dopamine D2 receptor signalling is strongly implicated in the aetiology of schizophrenia. We have recently characterized the function of three DRD2 SNPs: rs12364283 in the promoter affecting total D2 mRNA expression; rs2283265 and rs1076560, respectively

Neurodevelopment in school‐aged children after intrauterine exposure to antipsychotics

open access: yesActa Psychiatrica Scandinavica, Volume 147, Issue 1, Page 43-53, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Objective Antipsychotics are increasingly prescribed in pregnancy, yet little is known about potential long‐term developmental effects on children. In this study, we investigated the effect of prenatal antipsychotic exposure on neurodevelopmental functioning in school‐aged children.

Down-regulation of the dopamine receptor D2 in mice lacking ataxin 1.

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2007
Ataxin 1 (Atxn1) is a protein of unknown function associated with spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1), a neurodegenerative disease of late onset with variable degrees of cerebellar ataxia, ophthalmoplegia and neuropathy.

Structure of a D2 dopamine receptor-G protein complex in a lipid membrane

open access: yesNature, 2020
The D2 dopamine receptor (DRD2) is a therapeutic target for Parkinson’s disease 1 and antipsychotic drugs 2 . DRD2 is activated by the endogenous neurotransmitter dopamine and synthetic agonist drugs such as bromocriptine 3 , leading to stimulation of G ...
