Dopamine receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Receptors [373]) are commonly divided into D1-like (D1 and D5) D2-like (D2, D3 D4) families, where endogenous agonist is dopamine.

Ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine neurons play an important role in reward mechanisms of food intake, and VTA dopamine receptors exist on the terminal of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons and regulate GABA and glutamate release. To our knowledge, there is no evidence to show that VTA D1 dopamine receptors play a role in regular chow intake. In this paper, the effect of SKF38393, a D1 rece...

After Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease is the most common nerve-damaging disease. Parkinson's is a progressive and chronic disease where cells secrete dopamine-cut black flesh and in the absence of dopamine in the brain destroyed the irregular body movements. Man eats the food that causes the formation of the neurotransmitters. Tthree neurotransmitters: dopamine, serotonin, norepinephri...

We report the polymerization of dopamine analogue 4-(2-azidoethyl)benzene-1,2-diol (dopamine azide), where amine group is switched to azide, resulting in particles stable water but, contrast other polycatechol based polymers, soluble organic solvents.

previous studies had reported that extracellular levels of ascorbic acid have modulatory effects on dopamine receptors. both ascorbic acid and dopamine receptor have an important role in learning and memory processes. however, the central interaction between ascorbic acid and dopamine d2 receptor on spatial learning and memory has not yet been elucidated. all experiments were carried out on mal...
