A role for accumbal glycine receptors in modulation of dopamine release by the glycine transporter-1 inhibitor Org25935

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2011
Accumbal glycine modulates basal and ethanol-induced dopamine levels in the nucleus accumbens (nAc) as well as voluntary ethanol consumption. Also, systemic administration of the glycine transporter-1 inhibitor Org25935 elevates dopamine levels in nAc ...

Probing Cortical Sites of Antipsychotic Drug Action with in vivo Receptor Imaging

open access: yesBehavioural Neurology, 2000
Imaging receptors using radioactive ligands has allowed direct determination of the sites of action of antipsychotic drugs. Initial studies relating antipsychotic drug efficacy to action at striatal dopamine D2-like receptors have recently been ...

Synaptic enrichment and dynamic regulation of the two opposing dopamine receptors within the same neurons

open access: yeseLife
Dopamine can play opposing physiological roles depending on the receptor subtype. In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, Dop1R1 and Dop2R encode the D1- and D2-like receptors, respectively, and are reported to oppositely regulate intracellular cAMP ...
