Dopamine agonists and antagonists and its receptor play a critical role in the information transfer in the nervous system, and dopamine receptor-ligands interactions are deeply related to Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia and some other mental diseases. However, the only experimental 3D structure available for dopamine receptors is human D3 dopamine receptor. Therefore, it is important to create model of subtype dopamine receptor-ligands interactions. We report here the 3D structures of the human D1 and D2 dopamine receptor predicted by using GalaxyTBM, and its predicted binding site determined by using GalaxyDock. The highly conserved Asp on TM 3 and Phe on TM 6 have critical role in ligand binding. Also, highly conserved serines on TM 5 are essential for binding agonists and some kinds of antagonists. We identify differences between binding sites of agonists and antagonists of human D1 and D2 dopamine receptor, and find the reasons of selective binding of antagonists.

Purpose:In an attempt to predict the interpersonal differences of therapeutic response to antipsychotic drugs on pharmaco-genetic bases, this study was designed to investigate the relationship between the therapeutic response to antipsychotic drugs and Taq I A dopamine $D_2$ receptor polymorphism in schizophrenic patients. Methods:The subjects were 158 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia(DSM-IV). The therapeutic response to antipsychotic drugs was evaluated using the Treatment Response Scale(TRS) retrospectively. Patients were divided into two groups, dopamine receptor antagonist responders, and serotonin-dopamine antagonist responders. The patients' Taq I A dopamine $D_2$ receptor polymorphism was determined by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP). Results:The dopamine receptor antagonist responders had the A1 allele in significantly higher incidences (${\chi}^2$(1)=4.875, p=0.027, two-tailed). No significant difference was found among the serotonin-dopamine antagonist responders between those with or without the A1 allele. Conclusions:The patients with the A1 allele responded better to dopamine receptor antagonists than those with no A1 allele. Based on these results, it is suggested that the pharmacological effect of dopamine receptor antagonists can be predicted depending on the presence of the A1 allele in schizophrenic patients.

This Study was attempted to investigate tile effect of dopamine, SKF 81297, a dopamine D$_1$-receptor agonist, and TNPA, a dopamine D$_2$-receptor agonist, on the blood pressure in rat. Dopamine exhibited the hypertensive action in proportion to the doses of 1.0, 3.0 arid 10.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v., these hypertensive action of dopamine was blocked significantly by SCH 23390, a dopamine D$_1$-receptor antagonist, on the other hand, more potentiated by raclopride, a dopamine D$_1$-receptor antagonist. SKF 81297 produced hypertensive action in a dose of 1.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v., wherease hypotensive action in proportion to administered doses 3.0 and 10.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v., these hypertensive action of SKF 81297 in a dose of 1.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v. was not influenced by SCH 23390 or raclopride, but hypotensive action of SKF 81297 in tile doses of 3.0 and 10.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v. was weakened significantly by SCH 23390, but more strenthened by raclopride. TNPA showed the hypotensive action in inverse proportion to administered doses of 1.0, 3.0 and 10.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg i.v., these hypotensive action was reversed to hypertensive action in inverse proportion to the administered doses of TNPA by SCH 23390 and raclopride.

Dopamine mediates inhibitory responses in Helix aspersa neurons from the right parietal lobe ("F-lobe") of the circumoesophageal ganglia. The effects appeared as a dose-dependent hyperpolarization of the plasma membrane and a decrease in the occurrence of spontaneous action potentials. The average hyperpolarization with 5 ${\mu}m$ dopamine was -12 mV (${\pm}1.5$mV, S.D., n=12). Dopamine also modulated the currents 'responsible for shaping the action potentials in these neurons. When dopamine was added and action potentials were triggered by an injection of current, the initial depolarization was slowed, the amplitude and the duration of action potentials were decreased, and the after-hyperpolarization was more pronounced. The amplitude and the duration of action potential were reduced about 15 mV and about 13% by 5 ${\mu}m$ dopamine, respectively. The effects of dopamine on the resting membrane potentials and the action potentials of Helix neurons were dose-dependent in the concentration range 0.1 ${\mu}m$ to 50 ${\mu}m$. In order to show 1) that the effects of dopamine were mediated by dopamine receptors rather than by direct action on ionic channels and 2) which type of dopamine receptor might be responsible for the various effects, we assayed the ability of mammalian dopamine receptor antagonists, SCH-23390 (antagonist of D1 receptor) and spiperone (antagonist of D2 receptor), to block the dopamine-dependent changes. The D1 and D2 antagonists partially inhibited the dopamine-dependent hyperpolarization and the decrease in action potential amplitude. They both completely blocked the decrease in action potential duration and the increase in action potential after-hyperpolarization. The dopamine-induced slowdown of the depolarization in the initial phase of the action potentials was less effected by SCH-23390 and spiperone. From the results we suggest 1) that Helix F-lobe neurons may have a single type of dopamine receptor that binds both SCH-23390 and spiperone and 2) that the dopamine receptor of Helix F-lobe neurons may be homologous with and primitive to the family of mammalian dopamine receptors.

Dopamine is a major neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) that regulates neuroendocrine functions, locomotor activity, cognition and emotion. The dopamine system has been extensively studied because dysfunction of this system is linked to various pathological conditions including Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, Tourette's syndrome, and drug addiction. Accordingly, intense efforts to delineate the full complement of signaling pathways mediated by individual receptor subtypes have been pursued. Dopamine D1-like receptors are of particular interest because they are the most abundant dopamine receptors in CNS. Recent work suggests that dopamine signaling could be regulated via dopamine receptor interacting proteins (DRIPs). Unraveling these DRIPs involved in the dopamine system may provide a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying CNS disorders related to dopamine system dysfunction and may help identify novel therapeutic targets.

lt had been reproted previously that (${\pm}$)6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-phenyl 2,3,4,5-tetra-hydro -lH-3benzazepine (SKF 81297), dopamine $D_1$ receptor agonist, produced diuresis by both Indirect action through central function and direct action being induced in kidney. This study was attempted in order to examine the diuresis mechanism of such SKF 81297 Diuretic action of SKF 81297 given into the vein or the carotid artery was not affected by renal denervation, whereas diuretic action of SKF 81297 administered into a renal artery was blocked completely by renal denervation, and then diuretic action of SKF 81297 injected into carotid artery was inhibited by SCH 23390, dopamine $D_1$ receptor antagonist, given into carotid artery. Above results suggest that indirect diuretic action of SKF 81297 elicites through central dopamine $D_1$ receptor and direct diuresis in kidney by influence of renal nerves.

The results regarding an association between the polymorphism sites in the dopamine $D_1$ receptor gene and schizophrenia compelled us to study the distribution of the polymorphism in Korean schizophrenia and controls. Eighty-eight schizophrenic patients and normal controls were examined by case-control study for distribution of the polymorphism of the dopamine $D_1$ receptor gene in Korean popualtion to minimize the effect of racial differencies in gene frequencies. The frequencies of the $B_1$ and $B_2$ in schizophrenic patients were 0.11 and 9.89, respectively. And 0.10 and 0.90 in normal control. Ther was no significant differences in the frequencies in the allele $B_1$ and $B_2$between schizophrenic patients and normal controls. The author present here the evidence of a lack of alleic association between the polymorphism of the dopamine $D_1$ receptor gene and Korean schizophrenic patients. The assumption that the dopamine $D_1$ receptor gene has a genetic role in the development of schizophrenia was not suppoorted by this case-control study.

The signaling pathway of dopamine D$_2$ receptor was studied using yeast two-hybrid system. The 3rd cytoplasmic loop of rat D$_2$ receptor was fond to interact with ALY. The interaction in the yeast was observed only with the 3rd cytoplasmic loop of D$_2$ receptor but not with that of D$_3$ or D$_4$ dopamine receptor. The interaction between two proteins was also confirmed by GST pull-down assay. Co-expression of D$_2$ receptor and ALY enhanced the expression of Lef-1 promoter in C6 cells and the promoter of D$_2$ dopamine receptor itself.

Background : Dopamine receptors have been regarded as a strong candidate involved in etiology of schizophrenia and a target for various antipsychotic drugs. The purpose of our study was to investigate whether dopamine $D_1$ receptor(DRD1) gene polymorphisms would predict the treatment response to antipsychotics in schizophrenia. Method : One hundred thirty-four schizophrenic patients, who met DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia were entered into a 48 -week study. The psychopathology of the patients was assessed at baseline, 12th, 24th 48th weeks of treatment by PANSS. Responders were defined by a 20% of the reduction in total PANSS score at end point. The genomic DNA fragment corresponding to nucleotides of dopamine $D_1$ receptor gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR). Result: Neither allelic frequencies nor genotypes for dopamine $D_1$ receptor differed significantly between responders and non-responders. Also, there was no difference of changes of PANSS scores among three genotype groups of the dopamine $D_1$ receptor. Conclusion : Allelic variation in the dopamine $D_1$ gene is not associated with individual differences in antipsychotic response.
