Dopamine receptor D2
Dopamine receptor D2, also known asD2R, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the DRD2 gene.The dopamine D2 receptor was discovered in 1975 by Philip Seeman who had named it as the antipsychotic/dopamine receptor [1] The dopamine D2 receptor is the main receptor for all antipsychotic drugs. Any drug that does not interfere with dopamine action at the D2 receptor does not have an antipsych...
متن کاملDopamine D2 Receptor Dimer Formation
We have examined the binding of two radioligands ([H]spiperone and [H]raclopride) to D2 dopamine receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. In saturation binding experiments in the presence of sodium ions, both radioligands labeled a similar number of sites, whereas in the absence of sodium ions [H]raclopride labeled about half the number of sites labeled by [H]spiperone. In competitio...
متن کاملDopamine D2/D3 receptor availability and venturesomeness.
The construct of impulsivity is considered as a major trait of personality. There is growing evidence that the mesolimbic dopamine system plays an important role in the modulation of impulsivity and venturesomeness, the two key components within the impulsivity-construct. The aim of the present study was to explore an association between trait impulsivity measured with self-assessment and the d...
متن کاملTargeting the dopamine D2 receptor in schizophrenia.
After a 12-year search for the antipsychotic receptor, the binding site was discovered and labelled by [3H]haloperidol in 1975. Of the various neurotransmitters, dopamine was the most potent in inhibiting the binding of [3H]haloperidol, indicating that the antipsychotic receptor was a dopamine receptor, now named the dopamine D2 receptor, a major targeting site in schizophrenia. All antipsychot...
متن کاملPhysicochemical properties analysis and dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) docking of zotepine as an atypical antipsychotic antagonist
The main purpose of the present investigation is the study of therapeutically effect of Zotepine in schizophrenia disease treatment. In first step, the molecular structure of the said compound is optimized using density functional theory (DFT) technique by B3LYP functional method at 6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. Then the electronic properties of the title molecule are calculated using frontier...
