This gene encodes the D2 subtype of the dopamine receptor. This G-protein coupled receptor inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity. A missense mutation in this gene causes myoclonus dystonia; other mutations have been associated with schizophrenia. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. A third variant has been described, but it has not been determined whether this form is normal or due to aberrant splicing. (provided by RefSeq)

Complete tumor removal by transsphenoidal surgery is usually difficult for large nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs). A validated medical treatment may be useful for their management. This study evaluates the clinical efficacy of the dopaminergic agonist cabergoline for residual NFPA. We

Cortical GABAergic interneurons originate and migrate tangentially from the medial ganglionic eminence (MGE), but its mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we show that dopamine (DA) stimulates the differentiation and migration of cortical interneurons derived from MGE cells. Using immunohistochemistry
A dopamine type-2 receptor (DRD2) SNP, previously found to be correlated with serum prolactin (PRL) concentrations in cattle, was evaluated for impact on growth traits, serum prolactin concentration, and semen quality. Over a four-year period, yearling beef bulls were allowed
Repeated methamphetamine (METH) exposure can cause severe neurotoxicity to the central nervous system, and lead to memory deficits. L-Stepholidine (L-SPD) is a structurally identified alkaloid extract of the Chinese herb Stephania intermedia, which elicits dopamine (DA) D1-type receptors partial agonistic
Obesity has become a worldwide epidemic. We have previously reported that systemic administration of pNaKtide which targets the Na/K-ATPase oxidant amplification loop (NKAL) was able to decrease systemic oxidative stress and adiposity in mice fed a high fat and fructose
