Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists Understanding

Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists: Overview

DRD2 encodes the D2 subtype of the dopamine receptor that inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity. Alternative splicing of this G protein-coupled receptor results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. DRD2 plays a major role in the neural circuitry that mediates behavioral control, an ability that is essential for adaptive responding and is compromised in a variety of common neuropsychiatric disorders.

Function – Dopamine receptors are G protein–coupled receptors involved in the regulation of motor activity and several neurological disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, Parkinson’s disease (PD), Alzheimer’s disease, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Dopamine is a monoamine catecholamine neurotransmitter belonging to the 7 transmembrane G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), which play an important role in the regulation of not only motor functions but also non-motor functions such as motivation, cognition, emotion, and neuroendocrine secretion.

Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists- Dopamine (DA) D2 receptor antagonists have been linked to elevated levels of nicotine dependence in smokers with schizophrenia. Because activation of D2 receptors mediates motivation for nicotine, potent D2 antagonists would diminish nicotine's ability to stimulate reward processing-a mechanism that may drive compensatory increases in smoking.
