THE ROLE OF DOPAMINE D3 RECEPTORS IN THE CONTROL OF ALCOHOL INTAKE
Background: Mesolimbic dopamine controls drug and alcohol seeking behavior. Stimulation of dopamine D3 autoreceptor reduces extracellular levels of dopamine. We tested the hypothesis that dopamine D3 receptor (D3R) gene deletion or its pharmacological blockade counteracts alcohol preference and …

Gut-brain axis: Central impact of gut peptides and metabolic drug on monoamine neurotransmission
… can affect the electrical activity of dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and of pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), using single-unit activity recording techniques. We have also investigated, whether these peptides can alter some dopamine-dependent …
