Second-generation antipsychotics occupy dopamine D2 receptors and act as antagonists or partial agonists at these receptors. While these drugs alleviate positive symptoms in patients with schizophrenia, they are less effective for treating cognitive ...

Probing the role of the cation–π interaction in the binding sites of GPCRs using unnatural amino acids [PDF]
We describe a general application of the nonsense suppression methodology for unnatural amino acid incorporation to probe drug–receptor interactions in functional G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), evaluating the binding sites of both the M2 muscarinic

A comprehensive review on the role of dopamine in the pathophysiology of tardive dyskinesia [PDF]
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a neurological syndrome characterized by involuntary, repetitive, and unusual movements that primarily impact the orofacial region while also extending to other body parts, encompassing chorea, dystonia, tics, buccolingual ...

Molecular dynamics of dopamine at the D2 receptor. [PDF]
A three-dimensional model of the dopamine D2 receptor, assumed to be a target of antipsychotic drug action, was constructed from its amino acid sequence. The model was based on structural similarities within the super-family of guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory (G) protein-coupled neuroreceptors and has seven alpha-helical transmembrane segments ...

5-HT2A Receptors Modulate Dopamine D2-mediated Maternal Effects [PDF]
Serotonin 5-HT2A receptors are expressed throughout the mesolimbic and mesocortical dopamine pathways, and manipulation of this receptor system has a profound impact on dopamine functions and dopamine-mediated behaviors.

Molecular modelling of interactions between antipsychotic drugs and receptors mediating antipsychotic effects and important side effects [PDF]
Dopamine and serotonin are two neurotransmitters that exert their actions through mediation of dopaminergic and serotonergic receptors respectively. The receptors in focus in the current study, are the dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT2A receptors.

Dopamine is widely distributed in metazoans and is implicated in many physiological functions. Dopaminergic signaling is mediated through two classes of dopamine receptors, D1-like and D2-like.
