Genetics of Response to ECT, TMS, Ketamine and Esketamine

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Treatment‐resistant mood disorders are often managed with intensive interventions that include electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), ketamine, and esketamine, but the role of genetics in clinical response to those interventions is yet to be clearly determined.

Preservation of dendritic D2 receptor transmission in substantia nigra dopamine neurons with age

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) dopamine neurons are required for voluntary movement and reward learning, and advanced age is associated with motor and cognitive decline.

Differential Effects of Prenatal Poly I:C Exposure and Antipsychotics on NMDA/GABA Receptors and GSK3β-Mediated Signaling in the Dorsal Raphe Nucleus of Female Rats. [PDF]

open access: yesFundam Clin Pharmacol
ABSTRACT Background The dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) is the origin of the 5‐HT neurotransmission pathways. The 5‐HT, dopamine D2, GABA, and NMDA receptors, as well as the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)‐protein kinase A (PKA) and G protein‐independent protein kinase B (PKB/Akt)‐glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) signaling, are involved in the ...

The G protein-coupled receptor heterodimer network (GPCR-HetNet) and its hub components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) oligomerization has emerged as a vital characteristic of receptor structure. Substantial experimental evidence supports the existence of GPCR-GPCR interactions in a coordinated and cooperative manner.

The Multifaceted Etiology of Mental Disorders With a Focus on Trace Elements, a Review of Recent Literature

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mental disorders are a significant global public health concern, affecting nearly one in eight individuals worldwide. This review investigates the multifaceted etiology of mental disorders—specifically major depressive disorder (MDD), schizophrenia (SCZ), and bipolar disorder (BD)—through genetic, neurobiological, and environmental ...

Molecular modelling of interactions between antipsychotic drugs and receptors mediating antipsychotic effects and important side effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
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 D2 antagonist-induced striatal Nur77 expression requires activation of mGlu5 receptors by cortical afferents

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2012
Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists modulate gene transcription in the striatum. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this effect remains elusive. Here we used the expression of Nur77, a transcription factor of the orphan nuclear receptor family, as ...

Role of dopamine D2 receptors in ischemia/reperfusion induced apoptosis of cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Sciences, 2011
BackgroundMyocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury is the major cause of morbidity and mortality for cardiovascular diseases. Dopamine D2 receptors are expressed in cardiac tissues.

Dopamine-D1 and δ-opioid receptors co-exist in rat striatal neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cocaine’s enhancement of dopaminergic neurotransmission in the mesolimbic pathway plays a critical role in the initial reinforcing properties of this drug. However, other neurotransmitter systems are also integral to the addiction process.

Cocaine Sensitization: Modulation by Dopamine D2 Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesCerebral Cortex, 2002
Repeated administration of cocaine progressively increases drug-induced locomotor activity. This study examined the role of dopamine D(1)- and D(2)-like receptors in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in mediating these sensitized behaviors. For initiation experiments, animals received bilateral intra-mPFC injections of either saline, the D(1)-like ...
