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 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...
متن کاملEffects of selective dopamine receptor (Dl and D2) agonists on stress-induced gastric ulcer in rat
It has been revealed that dopamine (DA) modulates gastro-duodenal responses to stress. Several investigations have been made to identify the mechanisms and/or receptors by which DA or its promoters exert their gastroprotective function against stress, however there are many discrepancies in this respect. In order to clarify the relative contribution and/or interaction of two DA receptor subty...
متن کاملEffects of Pretreatment With Ginseng Extract on Dopamine D2 Receptor Analgesi
Introduction: The ginseng extract is an herb that has been used for many purposes such as analgesic effect. Dopamine D2 receptors are involved in the regulation of pain in humans. Therefore, the present investigation aims to study how pretreatment with aqueous-alcoholic extract of ginseng can affect dopamine D2 receptors’ pain sensitivity. Methods: We used 45 adult male rats weighing 250±20 fo...
