1. Selectivity of dopamine D1 and D2 receptor agonists – A combined computational approach
Sammanfattning : Dopamine (DA) is an endogenous neurotransmitter acting in the central nervous system. DA plays a key role in many vital brain functions such as behavior, cognition, motor activity, learning, and reward. Dopamine receptors belong to the rhodopsin like family of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). LÄS MER
2. Clozapine as a dopamine D₁ receptor agonist
Sammanfattning : Objectives'. The present study had two major objectives; [1] to examine the specific role of dopamine D, and DM receptors in body temperature regulation in rats, and [2] to examine in vivo dopamine D, and Dm receptor agonist/antagonist properties of clozapine by use of core temperature measurements.Methods'.

3. Adenosine receptor/dopamine receptor interactions : molecular and biochemical aspects
Sammanfattning : The dopamine receptors have been shown to be involved in a variety of higher brain functions, such as motor control, cognition and affective states. Agonist and antagonists of dopamine receptors are widely used to treat disorders such as Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia, respectively. LÄS MER
4. Striatal pathways in dyskinesia and dystonia
Sammanfattning : Purposeful and well-coordinated movements depend on the control exerted by dopamine (DA) on the basal ganglia (BG) network. Accordingly, dysfunctions or lesions of the dopaminergic system in the BG can result in an overall poverty and slowness of movement, cardinal features of Parkinson´s disease (PD), or in dyskinesias, exaggerated and involuntary movements resulting from L-DOPA pharmacotherapy.

5. Modeling receptor induced signaling in MSNs : Interaction between molecules involved in striatal synaptic plasticity
Sammanfattning : Basal Ganglia are evolutionarily conserved brain nuclei involved in several physiologically important animal behaviors like motor control and reward learning. Striatum, which is the input nuclei of basal ganglia, integrates inputs from several neurons, like cortical and thalamic glutamatergic input and local GABAergic inputs. LÄS MER
