A Concise Review of the Conflicting Roles of Dopamine-1 versus Dopamine-2 Receptors in Wound Healing
Molecules, 2017 Catecholamines play an important regulatory role in cutaneous wound healing. The exact role of dopamine in human epidermis has yet to be fully elucidated. Current published evidence describes its differential effects on two separate families of G protein

Desensitized D2 autoreceptors are resistant to trafficking
Scientific Reports, 2017 Dendritic release of dopamine activates dopamine D2 autoreceptors, which are inhibitory G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), to decrease the excitability of dopamine neurons.

Voltage-Dependent Dopamine Potency at D1-Like Dopamine Receptors
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020 In recent years, transmembrane voltage has been found to modify agonist potencies at several G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Whereas the voltage sensitivities of the Gαi/o-coupled dopamine D2-like receptors (D2R, D3R, D4R) have previously been ...

Dopamine D1, D2, D3 receptors, vesicular monoamine transporter type-2 (VMAT2) and dopamine transporter (DAT) densities in aged human brain. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The dopamine D(1), D(2), D(3) receptors, vesicular monoamine transporter type-2 (VMAT2), and dopamine transporter (DAT) densities were measured in 11 aged human brains (aged 77-107.8, mean: 91 years) by quantitative autoradiography.

Change of dopamine receptor mRNA expression in lymphocyte of schizophrenic patients
BMC Medical Genetics, 2001 Background Though the dysfunction of central dopaminergic system has been proposed, the etiology or pathogenesis of schizophrenia is still uncertain partly due to limited accessibility to dopamine receptor. The purpose of this study was to define whether

The Dopamine/Neuroleptic Receptor [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1984 ABSTRACTThe neuroleptic/dopamine receptor, with its picomolar affinity for potent neuroleptics, is the functional dopamine receptor of the brain. This receptor has been termed the D2dopamine receptor, and it inhibits or interferes with dopamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase.

M₅ muscarinic receptors mediate striatal dopamine activation by ventral tegmental morphine and pedunculopontine stimulation in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Opiates, like other addictive drugs, elevate forebrain dopamine levels and are thought to do so mainly by inhibiting GABA neurons near the ventral tegmental area (VTA), in turn leading to a disinhibition of dopamine neurons.

Dopamine Receptors and Neurodegeneration [PDF]
Aging and disease, 2015 Dopamine (DA) is one of the major neurotransmitters and participates in a number of functions such as motor coordination, emotions, memory, reward mechanism, neuroendocrine regulation etc. DA exerts its effects through five DA receptors that are subdivided in 2 families: D1-like DA receptors (D1 and D5) and the D2-like (D2, D3 and D4). All DA receptors
