In schizophrenia, the neurons affected by dopamine are overstimulated. This condition is treated with drugs like chlorpromazine (Thorazine), which bind to the affected receptors and inhibit the dopamine signal. Does chlorpromazineact as an agonist or antagonist?
Chlorpromazine and Bromocriptine both have the affinity in the dopamine receptors of the Central Nervous System, Chlorpromazine is use to treat schizophrenia and psychosis whereas Bromocriptine is use to treat parkinson’s disease. Explain the action of these drugs in the dopamine receptor and why they have different effects and clinical use, knowing that they both act on the dopamine receptors.
Typical antipsychotic drugs exert their therapeutic effects on the positive symptoms of schizophrenia by which of the following mechanisms?
Question 49 options:
a) Blocking the reuptake of dopamine, increasing the amount of dopamine in the synapse
b) Stimulating dopamine D1 receptors in the prefrontal cortex
c) Binding to dopamine D2 receptors and inhibiting dopamine signalling
d) Decreasing the production of dopamine in the basal ganglia

- How are the dopamine D1 and D2 receptors related to positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia?arrow_forwardThe behaviours associated with cocaine use mimic some of the symptoms of schizophrenia because: Question 53 options: a) Cocaine increases serotonergic transmission in the prefrontal cortex b) Cocaine increases dopamine binding at D2 receptors in the mesocortical tract c) Cocaine increases the reuptake of serotonin in the tuberoinfundibular tract d) Cocaine decreases dopamine binding at D2 receptors in the nigrostriatal tractarrow_forwardWe talked about drug effects on neurons in sequence. The effect of alcohol is multi-faceted and the following question asks you to apply your knowledge. Imagine two neurons in sequence. The presynaptic neuron is GABAnergic and the postsynaptic neuron is dopaminergic. The effects of alcohol are not fully understood but it does seem to inhibit GABAnergic neurons. How would the release of dopamine from the postsynaptic neuron change in this case? Explain your answer, being sure to make each connection between concepts clear. If alcohol instead inhibited dopaminernergic neurons, in what way might the ion flow change in the dendrites of the postsynaptic neuron of this example?arrow_forward

- A patient has been exposed to the organophosphate pesticide malathion,which inactivates acetylcholinesterase. Which of the following symptoms would you predict: blurring of vision, excess tear formation, frequent or involuntary urination, pallor (pale skin), muscle twitching, orcramps? Would atropine be an effective drug to treat the symptoms?(See Clinical Impact 16.2 for the action of atropine.) Explain.arrow_forwardWhich statement about glutamate and DA in regard to symptoms associated with schizophrenia is true? a.) Overabundance of glutamate at the NMDA receptor may be a precursor to DA dysfunction and may explain increases in mesolimbic DA and decreases in PFC function. b.) Insufficient glutamate at the NMDA receptor may be a precursor to DA dysfunction and may explain increases in mesolimbic DA and decreases in PFC function. c.) NMDA receptors have indirect excitatory effects on of midbrain mesolimbic DA neurons that project to limbic regions. d.) Schizophrenic symptoms are due to increased DA function in mesocortical neurons along with reduced DA function in mesolimbic dopaminergic neurons.arrow_forwardIn a cell line derived from normal rat thyroid, stimulation of the alpha1-adrenergic receptor increases both IP3 formation and release of arachidonic acid (AA). IP3 elevates cytosolic Ca, which mediates thyroxine efflux, whereas AA serves as a source of prostaglandin E2, which stimulates DNA synthesis. It is not clear how AA release is connected to the adrenergic receptor. AA could arise by cleavage from the DAG that accompanies IP3 production. Alternatively, AA could arise through an independent effect of the receptor on PLA2, which can directly release AA from intact phosphoglycerides. Consider the following experimental observations: a) Addition of noradrenaline to cell cultures stimulates production of both IP3 and AA. b) If the alpha1-adrenergic receptors are made unresponsive to noradrenaline by treatment with phorbol esters (which act through PKC to cause phosphorylation, and inactivation, of the receptor), addition of noradrenaline causes no increase in IP3 or AA. c) When…arrow_forward
