Positive correlation between the potency of antipsychotics and D2 binding

|
alpha versus beta flupenthixol --> only alpha isomer has D2 binding activity and subsequently only alpha isomer has antipsychotic effects

PET--> amphetamine induced DA release in dorsolateral PFC
|
Argument that central DA role is to mediate salience: hyperdopaminergia would lead to aberrant assignment of salience

|
MGE neurons electroplated with dominant negative ErbB4 --> largely unresponsive to cortical attractant; ErbB4 mouse mutants have fewer migrating interneurons

Increased amygdala activation in patients with PTSD when shown cues
|

|
Harrison

|
fMRI
|
Optogenetic stimulation of cortical glutamate neurons increased ventromedial striatal neutron firing and increased OCD-like behaviour
|

ChR2 in cortical glutamatergic neurons
|
Decreased benzodiazepine site binding in medication-free panic disorder patients
|
Malizia
|
1998
|
PET
|
gamma2 GABA-A subunit +/- mice had decreased GABA-A receptor function and increased anxiety behaviour
|
Crestani
|
1999
|
|
A GABA-A alpha3 selective agonist had anxiolytic effects without usual side effects
|
Dias

5-HT2AR -/- mice had decreased anxiety-like behaviour
|
Weisstaub

|

Stimulation of VTA in rats upon lever pressing led to addiction
|
Olds

electrode stimulation
|
Optogenetic stimulation of DAergic mesolimbic neurons upon lever press--> addiction
|
Pascoli

|
ChR2 in mice DAergic mesolimbic neurons--> laser VTA stimulation
|
Place paradigm using optogenetics--> mice showed preference for chamber with VTA stimulation
|
Tsai
|
2009
|
Same optogenetics as Pascoli
|
Nicotine desensitised nAChRs on GABAergic inputs more than glutamatergic inputs, and so enhances excitation of DAergic neurons
|
Mansvelder
|
2002
|
Rat brain sections with VTA, applied nicotine
|
Nicotine increased DA release during high-frequency firing patterns, more than low-frequency--> high-freq. associated with reward
|
Rice
|
2004
|
Guinea pig NAc, cholinergic inputs desensitised with nicotine
|
Greater DAergic VTA firing if the reward is higher than expected, leading to positive reinforcement and greater firing next time cue is presented; vice versa
|
Schultz

|
Monkeys reward association task
|
Increased DA in NAc upon cue presentation

|
Volkow

|
PET in dorsal striatum using 11[C] raclopride
|
Amount of current required for action potential significantly greater in shock-resistant cocaine-addicted rats; Photoactivation of ChR2 in prelimbic cortex led to increased PFC activity reducing compulsive cocaine-seeking behaviour
