Disruption of the D2 dopamine receptor alters GH and IGF-I secretion and causes dwarfism in male mice
We determined the consequences of the loss of D2 receptors (D2R) on the GH-IGF-I axis using mice deficient in functional dopamine D2 receptors by targeted mutagenesis (D2R-/-). Body weights were similar at birth, but somatic growth was less in male D2R-/- mice from 1-8 months of age and in D2R-/- fe...
