Effects of 12-week Endurance Exercise on Dopamine Receptor Protein Expression in Hippocampus of Obese Rat [PDF]
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate changes of body composition, D1 dopamine receptors (D1DR), and D2 dopamine receptors (D2DR) protein expression after 12 weeks of moderate-intensity treadmill exercise in hippocampus of high fat diet ...

Dopamine has a variety of physiological roles in the gastrointestinal tract (GI) through binding to Drosophila dopamine D1-like receptors (DARs) and/or adrenergic receptors and has been confirmed as one of the enteric neurotransmitters.

Initial investigations on dopamine D4 receptors generated much interest in the role of this receptor in schizophrenia and other aspects of human behavior, as well as new opportunities for novel therapeutics. However, attempts to treat patients suffering from schizophrenia with dopamine D4 agents have failed to yield satisfactory results so far.

A Concise Review of the Conflicting Roles of Dopamine-1 versus Dopamine-2 Receptors in Wound Healing
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
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
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]
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.
