A dopaminergic deficit hypothesis of schizophrenia: the path to discovery
In contrast to the conventional view of dopamine involvement in schizophrenia, which posits hyperactive dopaminergic transmission, we propose that for unknown developmental and/or biochemical reasons, a primary defect occurs in efficient, tight dopaminergic synaptic transmission, triggering feedback activation and receptor upregulation, and resulting in the well-characterized increase in dopami...

Dopamine (DA) is one of the main catecholamines in the brain and is crucial for movement coordination, endocrine function, reward, mood, memory and emotions. The dopaminergic system is the primary therapeutic target in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD), drug addiction and schizophrenia. Notwithstanding, dysfunction of central dopaminergic neurotransmission has also been associated to de...

Introduction and objectives: Antipsychotics or dopamine receptor antagonists are the major components of treatment but about 10-20% of patients with schizophrenia do not benefit from treatment with antidopaminergic agents, indicating other neuronal systems may be involved in this disorder (2). Dysregulation of both excitatory and inhibitory mechanisms N-Methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) and γ-Amino...

Comorbidty is common among psychiatric disorders including obsessive-compulsive disorder and schizophrenia with a high rate. Many studies suggested that the disorders may have same etiological bases. In this regard, shared pathways of glutamate, dopaminergic, and serotonin are the known ones. Here, the common significant genes are examined to understand the possible molecular origin of the diso...
