Central interaction of ascorbic acid and D2 dopamine receptors on spatial learning and memory in adult male rats [PDF]
Previous studies had reported that extracellular levels of ascorbic acid have modulatory effects on dopamine receptors. Both ascorbic acid and dopamine receptor have an important role in learning and memory processes.

Absence seizures: Update on signaling mechanisms and networks
Abstract Absence seizures (AS) are a hallmark of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE), characterized by brief episodes of impaired consciousness accompanied by electroencephalographic spike‐and‐wave discharges (SWDs). Traditionally attributed to cortico‐thalamo‐cortical (CTC) dysrhythmia, emerging evidence suggests a more intricate pathophysiological ...

Background In both schizophrenia and addiction, pathological changes in dopamine release appear to induce alterations in the circuitry of the nucleus accumbens that affect coordinated thought and motivation. Dopamine acts principally on medium-spiny GABA

The role of intracerebral dopamine D1 and D2 receptors in sleep‐wake cycles and general anesthesia
Dopamine (DA), a monoamine neurotransmitter, is synthesized and released mainly by neurons in the ventral tegmental area and the substantia nigra (SN) pars compacta of the midbrain.

Neurobiological correlates of obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD): A narrative review
Obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common and disabling, as well as underdiagnosed, neuropsychiatric condition characterized by involuntary and unwanted obsessions and/or compulsions often accompanied by states of severe anxiety, distress and shame, as well as other comorbid disorders. Despite the extensive literature available to date, only some

Dissociable effects of dopamine on neuronal firing rate and synchrony in the dorsal striatum
Previous studies showed that dopamine depletion leads to both changes in firing rate and in neuronal synchrony in the basal ganglia. Since dopamine D1 and D2 receptors are preferentially expressed in striatonigral and striatopallidal medium spiny neurons,

In the freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease, white matter shows decreased local activity but increased functional connectivity. These distinct dysfunctions are uniquely associated with specific neurotransmitter systems (GABA, dopamine, etc.), mapping a new neurochemical basis for this debilitating symptom. ABSTRACT Freezing of gait (FOG) is a severe

Tetrahydrocannabinol and dopamine D1 receptor
Dopamine, a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator, is primarily released by dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain, particularly in the substantia nigra and the ventral tegmental area (VTA).
