Journal ArticleDOI

Alternative splicing directs the expression of two D2 dopamine receptor isoforms

TL;DR: It is shown that the gene for the D2 receptor produces two receptor isoforms by alternative messenger RNA splicing, providing a route to receptor diversity in this family of receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective inhibition of cocaine-seeking behaviour by a partial dopamine D3 receptor agonist.

TL;DR: BP 897 inhibits cocaine-seeking behaviour that depends upon the presentation of drug-associated cues, without having any intrinsic, primary rewarding effects, which indicates that compounds like BP 897 could be used for reducing the drug craving and vulnerability to relapse that are elicited by drug- associated environmental stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI

BDNF controls dopamine D3 receptor expression and triggers behavioural sensitization.

TL;DR: It is shown that BDNF from dopamine neurons is responsible for inducing normal expression of the dopamine D3 receptor in nucleus accumbens both during development and in adulthood, and may be an important determinant of pathophysiological conditions such as drug addiction, schizophrenia or Parkinson's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacology of human dopamine D3 receptor expressed in a mammalian cell line: comparison with D2 receptor.

TL;DR: Several agonists and antagonists, previously regarded as autoreceptor-selective, displayed higher affinities at D3 than at D2 receptors, suggesting that they realize differential dopamine receptor subtype occupancy during treatments and that this might be reflected in their clinical profile.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological inactivation of enkephalins and the role of enkephalin-dipeptidyl-carboxypeptidase ("enkephalinase") as neuropeptidase.

TL;DR: Three types of well defined peptidase activities in CNS may account for the hydrolysis of the opioid pentapeptides : aminopeptidases, angiotensin-converting enzyme and enkephalin-dipeptidylcarboxypeptidase.
