Novel dopamine D2 receptor ligands for Parkinson’s disease & schizophrenia
Dopamine is a catecholamine neurotransmitter that mediates physiological functions in the central and peripheral nervous systems. Binding of dopamine to the dopamine D2 receptor elicits intracellular signaling implicated in various neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) and schizophrenia. Drugs targeting the dopamine D2 receptor...
