Q

dopamine hypothesis

A

evidence for:

  • antipsychotics - some block D2 receptors postsynaptic
  • drugs increase DA - aggravate schizophrenia or trigger psychosis
  • DA receptors - more in brain of schizophrenic
  • post-mortem - more DA and D2 receptorrs in schizophrenic nucleus accumbens, caudate, putamen

evidence against:

  • decreased cortex/hippocampus DA activity - underlie cognitive impairment and negative sx of schizophrenia
  • many atypicals - lower affinity for D2 receptors - but effective for schizophrenia tx
