Mount Sinai researchers have discovered distinct roles for two dopamine receptors located on nerve cells within the portion of the brain that controls approach vs. avoidance behavior. These receptors ...

Different receptors respond to different neurotransmitters or hormones, such as adrenaline involved in the fight-or-flight ...

A new study shows dopamine isn’t the brain’s movement “gas pedal” after all. Instead of setting speed or strength, it quietly enables movement in the background, much like oil in an engine. When ...

Phase 3 results published in JAMA Neurology showed that ecopipam, an investigational, first-in-class dopamine-1 (D1) receptor antagonist, delayed time to relapse compared to placebo and maintained ...

First-generation antipsychotics, including haloperidol and chlorpromazine, raise the risk of tardive dyskinesia. Second-generation options like risperidone and quetiapine also carry a risk. Tardive ...
