Normalizing dopamine D2 receptor-mediated responses in D2 null mutant mice by virus-mediated receptor restoration: comparing D2L and D2S.
D2 receptor null mutant (Drd2(-/-)) mice have altered responses to the rewarding and locomotor effects of psychostimulant drugs, which is evidence of a necessary role for D2 receptors in these behaviors. Furthermore, work with mice that constitutively express only the D2 receptor short form (D2S), as a result of genetic deletion of the long form (D2L), provides the basis for a current model in ...
متن کاملDopamine 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 کاملWithout DJ-1, the D2 Receptor Doesn’t Play
Dopamine is an essential neuromodulator of the central nervous system whose activity is mediated through interaction with membrane receptors. Among these, the D2 receptor plays a pivotal role in regulating postsynaptic functions as well as dopamine synthesis and release from dopaminergic neurons. Parkinson's disease and parkinsonism are neurodegenerative diseases of dopaminergic neurons affecti...
متن کاملDopamine D2 receptor-mediated presynaptic inhibition of olfactory nerve terminals.
Olfactory receptor neurons of the nasal epithelium project via the olfactory nerve (ON) to the glomeruli of the main olfactory bulb, where they form glutamatergic synapses with the apical dendrites of mitral and tufted cells, the output cells of the olfactory bulb, and with juxtaglomerular interneurons. The glomerular layer contains one of the largest population of dopamine (DA) neurons in the ...
