Description
Summary:D1/D5 and D2-like receptors, which activate distinct signaling pathways and modulate synaptic plasticity and neuronal activity. [...]dopamine-based treatments often disrupt the balance of the system and cause unwanted side effects in patients. In line with this idea, Hagena et al. demonstrate that two mouse strains (CaOlaHsd and C57Bl6) have different patterns of D1/5R expression in the hippocampus and found that such altered balance results in changes in dopaminergic-dependent synaptic plasticity. [...]differences in D1/D5R expression may explain, in part, strain-dependent variations in synaptic plasticity in the murine hippocampus. [...]this collection of articles highlights the crucial role of dopaminergic modulation in different aspects of synaptic plasticity and cognition.
