The dopamine D 2 , but not D 3 or D 4 , receptor subtype is essential for the disruption of prepulse inhibition produced by amphetamine in mice

Brain dopamine (DA) systems are involved in the modulation of the sensorimotor gating phenomenon known as prepulse inhibition (PPI). The class of D 2 -like receptors, including the D2, D3, and D4 receptor subtypes, have all been implicated in the control of PPI via studies of DA agonists and antagon...

The class of D 2 -like receptors, including the D2, D3, and D4 receptor subtypes, have all been implicated in the control of PPI via studies of DA agonists and antagonists in rats.

To determine the relevance of each receptor subtype, we used genetically altered strains of 'knock-out' mice lacking the DA D2, D3, or D4 receptors. We tested the effects of each knock-out on both the phenotypic expression of PPI and the disruption of PPI produced by the indirect DA agonist d-amphetamine (AMPH). No phenotypic differences in PPI were observed at baseline. AMPH significantly disrupted PPI in the D2 (+/+) mice but had no effect in the D2 (-/-) mice. After AMPH treatment, both DA D3 and D4 receptor (+/+) and (-/-) mice had significant disruptions in PPI. These findings indicate that the AMPH-induced disruption of PPI is mediated via the DA D2 receptor and not the D3 or D4 receptor subtypes. Uncovering the neural mechanisms involved in PPI will further our understanding of the substrates of sensorimotor gating and could lead to better therapeutics to treat gating disorders, such as schizophrenia. 1999 https://bibliotecadigital.exactas.uba.ar/collection/paper/document/paper_02706474_v19_n11_p4627_Ralph http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12110/paper_02706474_v19_n11_p4627_Ralph
