Dystonia: sparse synapses for D2 receptors in striatum of a DYT1 knock-out mouse model [PDF]
, 2020 Dystonia pathophysiology has been partly linked to downregulation and dysfunction of dopamine D2 receptors in striatum. We aimed to investigate the possible morpho-structural correlates of D2 receptor downregulation in the striatum of a DYT1 Tor1a mouse ...

Blockade of adenosine A2A receptors prevents protein phosphorylation in the striatum induced by cortical stimulation [PDF]
, 2006 ©2006 Society for NeurosciencePrevious studies have shown that cortical stimulation selectively activates extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) phosphorylation and immediate early gene expression in striatal GABAergic enkephalinergic neurons.

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

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.

Could dopamine agonists aid in drug development for anorexia nervosa? [PDF]
, 2014 Anorexia nervosa is a severe psychiatric disorder most commonly starting during the teenage-years and associated with food refusal and low body weight. Typically there is a loss of menses, intense fear of gaining weight, and an often delusional quality ...

Translational Psychiatry, 2016 Although all current antipsychotics act by interfering with the action of dopamine at dopamine D2 receptors, two recent reports showed that 800 to 1000 mg of cannabidiol per day alleviated the signs and symptoms of schizophrenia, although cannabidiol is ...

Signaling pathways involved in renal oxidative injury: role of the vasoactive peptides and the renal dopaminergic system [PDF]
, 2014 The physiological hydroelectrolytic balance and the redox steady state in the kidney are accomplished by an intricate interaction between signals from extrarenal and intrarenal sources and between antinatriuretic and natriuretic factors.
