Dopamine D2R DNA transfer in dopamine D2 receptor-deficient mice: effects on ethanol drinking
PK Thanos, SN Rivera, K Weaver, DK Grandy… - Life sciences, 2005 - Elsevier
Dopamine (DA) signals are transmitted via specific receptors including the D2 receptors
(D2R). Previous studies have shown that D2R upregulation in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) …

Absence of NMDA receptors in dopamine neurons attenuates dopamine release but not conditioned approach during Pavlovian conditioning
During Pavlovian conditioning, phasic dopamine (DA) responses emerge to reward-
predictive stimuli as the subject learns to anticipate reward delivery. This observation has …
