An investigation into the function of single-neuron activity in the mesoaccumbens dopamine system of the rat [PDF]
, 2012 The mesoaccumbens dopamine system has been implicated in many basic psychological processes (e.g. "wanting" and "liking") and illnesses (e.g. addiction, depression, schizophrenia).

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

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A NIR‐II light‐activatable thermoelectric nanoreactor converts surface‐bound Cu2+ into bioactive Cu+ via directed electron flow. This spatiotemporally controlled reduction triggers potent cuproptosis and immunogenic cell death, eradicating primary tumors and, together with aPD‐1 therapy, suppressing metastases while establishing durable immune memory ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.LRRK2‐mutant induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were derived from a patient with Parkinson's disease (PD). Using CRISPR/Cas9–mediated gene editing, the pathogenic LRRK2 mutations were precisely corrected, and isogenic dopaminergic neural progenitor cells (DA‐NPCs) were subsequently generated.

Nociceptin/orphanin FQ and motor activity: behavioural, biochemical and electrophysiological studies in models of Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
, 2010 Nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ) is an opioid-like neuropeptide which activates the NOP receptor. N/OFQ exerts an inhibitory control on locomotion through inhibition of dopamine (DA) neurons located in the substantia nigra (SN), which degenerate in ...
