## Abstract Dopamine is a key neuromodulatory transmitter in the brain. It acts through dopamine receptors to affect changes in neural activity, gene expression, and behavior. In songbirds, dopamine is released into the striatal song nucleus area X, and the levels depend on social contexts of undir
Since spontaneous oral dyskinesias are more prevalent in the elderly, and since these movements may be controlled by the balance of brain dopamine D1 and D2 dopamine receptors, we measured the densities of these receptors in 247 postmortem brain striata. In childhood, the densities of D1 and D2 dopa
In the brain of the honey bee, Apis mellifera, the radioligands [ 3 H]-SCH23390 and [ 3 H]-spiperone recognise D1-and D2-like receptors, respectively. In addition to being pharmacologically distinct and exhibiting significantly different expression profiles during the lifetime of the bee, [ 3 H]-SCH
