7. Dopamine effect on receptors
Dopamine receptors are predominantly (and in vertebrates exclusively) coupled to G proteins. They are metabotropic receptors and therefore orders of magnitude slower than ionotropic receptors,1 and therefore longer lasting.
While ionotropic receptors directly open an ion channel, excitatory dopamine receptors activate an excitatory G protein,
which is located on the inside of the cell membrane near the receptor. This G protein activates an enzyme, which in turn produces a second messenger. This second messenger diffuses to nearby ion channels, attaches to them and opens them. Stimulation of an inhibitory dopamine receptor, on the other hand, activates inhibitory G-proteins, which inhibit the production of second messengers.2
An important second messenger addressed by dopamine receptors is cyclic adenosine monophosphate, cAMP. in addition to opening ion channels, cAMP can also trigger gene transcription and alter the expression of specific genes.
There are 2 classes of dopamine receptors that differ according to G-protein partners and intracellular signaling mechanisms:3
The D1-like receptors (D1 and D5) are Gs/olf-coupled. Their activation increases intracellular cAMP and has an excitatory effect.
The D2-like receptors (D2, D3 and D4) are Gi/o coupled. Their activation reduces intracellular cAMP and has an inhibitory effect.
The D1-like dopamine receptors (D1 and D5) are activated “postsynaptically” by dopamine, which is released from the presynaptic neuron into the synaptic cleft. When activated, they increase neuronal activity. This is a phasic response.
The D2-like dopamine receptors are partly postsynaptic, but can also occur presynaptically. Presynaptic dopamine receptors are activated by extracellular dopamine leaking from the synapse. This action serves as an inhibitory feedback mechanism when the dopamine level exceeds the reuptake capacity.4 Postsynaptically, D2-like receptors have an inhibitory effect on the activity of the nerve cell
It is unclear whether dopamine transmission is mediated by a synaptic or a volume-dependent mechanism. Dopamine-dependent transmission works differently than a purely synaptic mechanism. While glutamate is present in the synaptic cleft for less than 1 ms, and the time course of NMDA-dependent transmission depends on the rate of deactivation of glutamate from the receptor (tau = 250-400 ms, dopamine must be present for about 100 ms to reach the full amplitude of the IPSC5
Rats with low dopaminergic receptor density in the striatum, i.e. with lower dopaminergic binding capacity, are more receptive to rewarding/reinforcing substances.6
In addition to signal transmission via the adenylyl cyclase-cAMP system (the most important mechanism of action), dopamine receptors also activate phospho-lipase C via the Gq/11 system and increase intracellular calcium levels. Dopamine receptors also interact with glutamate receptors and mobilize intracellular Ca2+ stores.7
Dopamine receptors can occur as monomers, dimers and/or oligomeric complexes. This can occur by association of different subtypes, either alone or with other GPCRs and ligand-gated channels. Homodimers occur:
- D1R-D2R
- D2R-D4R
- D1R-D3R
- D2R-D3R
- D2R-D5R
Dimer/oligomeric complexes have pharmacological and functional properties that differ from those of the receptors that form them. Oligomeric complexes with dopamine receptors may be associated with adenosine A1 and A2, serotonergic 5-HT2A, histaminergic H3, glutamatergic mGlu5 and NMDA receptors.8

Dopamine binds not only to dopamine receptors, but also - even with similar affinity - to noradrenaline receptors, serotonin receptors and melatonin receptors as well as to dopamine transporters and noradrenaline transporters.910 (Sorting from affine to less affine). Within the receptors, there are again differences in affinity depending on the gene variant (sorting from affine to less affine).11

(pKi: negative logarithmic dissociation constant (negative logarithm of Ki), the higher the more affine)
D3 and D5 receptors have a high affinity, D1 and D2 receptors have a low affinity for dopamine.13 The earlier model that D1 has a low affinity and D2 a high affinity is outdated. The preference of D2 receptors for tonic dopamine and of D1R for phasic dopamine derived from this outdated view has also not been confirmed. Both D1R and D2R respond to tonic and phasic dopamine.14
7.2. Frequency distribution of the dopamine receptors
The frequency of dopamine receptors differs within the brain regions:1516

Blocking dopamine receptors increases the release of acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is partly responsible for the development of extrapyramidal symptoms.18
7.3. Dopamine release from dopamine receptors
DRD1 and DRD2 release dopamine very slowly (“unbinding”). The half-life of the dopamine release of DRD1 and DRD2 is 80 seconds14 and is therefore much longer than bursts, which last only fractions of a second to a few seconds.
7.4. Dopamine receptors and DAT mostly extrasynaptic
Receptors are mostly, but not exclusively, located within synapses.
Dopamine receptors are predominantly located outside of synapses (extrasynaptic). This also applies to the D2 autoreceptor and the DAT, which is responsible for dopamine reuptake 19 2021
In the striatum, dopaminergic fibers form en passant synapses every 4 mm.22
Due to diffusion and reuptake (not degradation), the half-life of extracellular dopamine in the caudate nucleus is less than 50 ms, while it is slightly longer in the nucleus accumbens.2324 Thus, D1 receptors can be stimulated by DA that diffuses into the extrasynaptic extracellular space up to 12 micrometers away from the release sites25
Dopamine uptake in the mPFC, nucleus accumbens and caudate nucleus/putamen correlates with the number of dopamine receptors present. In the amygdala, on the other hand, dopamine uptake is lower and slower and corresponds to that of the neuroendocrine tuberoinfundibular dopamine system.24
7.5. Heteroreceptors (postsynaptic receptors)
Released catecholamines act on postsynaptic heteroreceptors (here on inhibitory as well as activating ones), as well as on presynaptic autoreceptors (here only inhibitory ones).26
7.5.1. D1-like dopamine receptors: activating
D1R-like receptors (D1R and D5R)27
- increase adenylate cyclase
- especially D1R
- increase the phosphoinositide metabolism
- especially D5R
- are located on non-dopamine neurons28
- stimulate neuronal signaling by binding to Gαs/olf to activate adenylyl cyclase. The enzyme adenylyl cyclase (AC) converts adenosine triphosphate (ATP) into cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). cAMP activates protein kinase A (PKA), which in turn phosphorylates the cAMP response element binding protein (CREB). CREB is translocated to the nucleus and activates CREB-dependent transcription of genes involved in synaptic plasticity. D1R increases excitability in axonal terminals by modulating various ion channels, including voltage-activated Na+, K+ and Ca2+ channels and the G-protein gated inwardly rectifying K+ channel (GIRK).32928
- D1R-like receptors do not contain introns, unlike D2R-like receptors, which therefore recognize “long” and “short” D2 receptor isoforms.9
7.5.1.1. D1 receptor

Blockade of D1 receptors interfered with corticostriatal long term potentiation (LTP, “learning”), while blockade of D5 receptors prevented LTD (long term depression, “forgetting”).36
Blockade of D1 receptors increased motor activity, while blockade of D1 and D5 receptors decreased motor activity.36
In mPFC pyramidal neurons, D1 receptors on dendritic spines and D5 receptors on dendritic shafts are more prominent. Simultaneous pharmacological activation of D1 and D5 receptors in the mPFC by the D1 and D5 agonist SKF-38393 promoted the formation of aversive memories.37
After birth, the density of D1 and D2 receptors in the striatum initially increases. In adolescence, the number of these receptors drops to 40 % of the initial level.38 This decrease is again significantly greater in men than in women.
A high expression of dopamine transporters could possibly cause an increased expression of D1, D2 and VMAT2 receptors.39
Glucocorticoids cause a sensitization of D1 receptors in GABAergic cells of the striatum in rats,4041 as well as stress.4243

7.5.2. D2-like dopamine receptors: inhibitory
D2R-like receptors (D2R, D3R and D4R) are inhibitory. They induce by coupling to Gi/o proteins:344
- The inhibition of AC- and PKA-dependent signaling pathways
- The activation of inhibitory G-protein-activated inwardly rectifying potassium channels (GIRK)
- The closing of voltage-activated Ca2+ channels.
- The activation of phospholipase C9
The majority of D2 receptors are located on non-dopamine neurons (postsynaptic).28 For presynaptic autoreceptors, see below,
D2R-like receptors contain introns and therefore know “long” and “short” D2 receptor isoforms, unlike D1R-like receptors.9
For activation or deactivation of the subsequent synapse, a certain percentage of the activating or inhibiting (here: dopamine) receptors must be initiated by means of dopamine binding. If there is too little dopamine in the synaptic cleft due to the overactivity of the dopamine reuptake transporters, not enough receptors are initiated. As a result, the activation/deactivation of the subsequent synapse that is actually due does not take place.
The brain makes the decision to take an action up to 7 seconds before the person becomes aware of the decision itself. These 7 seconds are available to the person to suppress a decision that has already been “made” - by means of inhibitory deactivation of the synapses that transmit the decision. A person can cancel a decision that has already been made 200 milliseconds before it is executed.45
Metaphorically speaking, one area of the brain puts intended decisions “up for discussion” and gives other brain regions the opportunity to assess and allow or prevent them.
This testing and abandonment mechanism is essentially controlled by dopamine. If the dopamine control circuit is disrupted, the mechanism that leads to the abandonment of disadvantageous decisions is inhibited.
7.5.2.1. D2 receptor
- Low affinity,13 at least in vivo just as low affinity as D11
- No activation by basal dopamine levels (2 to 20 nM)

- The more dopamine receptors are present, the greater the acetylcholinergic excess that occurs when these receptors are blocked.
- The administration of typical antipsychotics (= typical neuroleptics, e.g. haloperidol), which block the postsynaptic dopamine D2 receptors as D2 antagonists, causes pronounced acetylcholinergic side effects such as extrapyramidal symptoms or akathisia (taskinesia, restlessness) in people with ADHD with a high number of dopamine receptors. The acetylcholinergic excess in persons with ADHD with a high number of dopamine receptors explains the frequent consumption of anticholinergic and sedative substances as well as the frequent use of cocaine.

In adolescence, the number of these receptors drops to 40% of the initial level.38 This decrease is again significantly greater in men than in women.
With increasing age, the density of D2 receptors in the striatum decreases.60
A high expression of dopamine transporters could possibly cause an increased expression of D1 receptors, D2 receptors and VMAT2 receptors.39
A fairly small study of children with ADHD (many of whom were born prematurely or at low weight) found evidence of lower D2/D3 receptor binding/number in persons with ADHD-C than in persons with ADHD-I subtype: ADHD-C: 2.9 (2.6 - 3.5); ADHD-I: 4.0 (3.3 - 4.5).61

7.5.2.4. D4 receptor
D4 receptors are involved in the encoding of the memory of fear, but not in the encoding of the memory of rewards.37 D4Rs are involved in the regulation of action impulsivity (inhibition problems) and choice impulsivity (devaluation of distant rewards).63
In humans, primates and rodents, D4R is mainly found in the PFC, especially in neurons of the deep layer. In contrast, DRD4 mRNA expression is much lower in the striatum.63

- Stronger downregulation of NR1-NMDA receptor surface expression in frontal cortical cells in vitro
- Attenuated methamphetamine-induced cortical activation
- Attenuated ontogenetic and methamphetamine-induced glutamate release frontal cortico-striatal
- Stronger inhibition of frontal cortico-striatal neurotransmission:
- Specifically higher dopamine potency with the D2R-D4.7R heteromer than with the D2R-D4.4R heteromer, compared to the D2R homomer
- Differential decrease or increase in the constitutive activity of D2R when it forms D2R-D4.4R or D2R-D4.7R heteromers, respectively
- More frequent formation of D4.7R homomers instead of heteromers than with D4.4R
- D4.7R forms heteromers with D2R less frequently than D4.4R
- D4.7R forms homomers more frequently than D4.4.R
- Significantly higher dopamine effect for D4.4R-D4.4R and D4.7R-D4.7R homomers than for D2R-D4.4R and D2R-D4.7R heteromers also leads to functional enhancement of D4.7R compared to D4.4R
- Less frequent formation of D4.7R-α2AR heteromers than of D4.4R-α2AR in the brain
- D4.7R-α2AR increases the effectiveness of noradrenaline in activating α2AR, but not D4.4R-α2AR
- D4.7R does not allosterically inhibit α2AR-mediated signaling in the heteromer, compared to D4.4R
- Therefore, dopamine does not inhibit α2AR signaling in α2AR-D4.7R, but does in α2AR-D4.4R heteromers
- D4R can also be activated by endogenous noradrenaline in the cerebral cortex
- High dopamine should cause significant inhibition of α2AR signaling by the α2AR-D4.4R, but not by the α2AR-D4.7R heteromer
- Α2AR-D4R heteromers appear to primarily reduce the excitability of P neurons
- Therefore higher frontal-cortical inhibition by D4.7R
- Compared to DRD4.4R:63
- No significant differences between D4.2R, D4.4R and D4.7R with regard to dopamine-induced activation of the five Gi/o protein subtypes63

Selective D4 antagonists proved to be ineffective for antipsychotic treatment. Apparently, a combined treatment of the dopaminergic and serotonergic systems is required.78
Injections of the selective D4R agonist A-412997 (5 and 10 mg/kg) and the antagonist L-745870 (5 and 10 mg/kg) significantly altered the activity of the hippocampus and PFC.
The D4R agonist A-412997 enhanced the slow rhythm of the PFC (delta, 2-4 Hz) and suppressed the theta rhythm of the hippocampus.
The D4R antagonist L-745870 had the opposite effect. Analogous changes in the two slow rhythms were also found in the nucleus reuniens of the thalamus, which has connections to both forebrain structures. Slow oscillations play a key role in interregional cortical coupling; in particular, delta and theta oscillations were shown to entrain neuronal firing and modulate gamma activity in interconnected forebrain structures, with relative dominance of the hippocampal theta over the PFC. D4R activation thus appears to be able to induce an abnormal bias in the bidirectional PFC-hippocampal coupling, which can be reversed by D4R antagonists.79
D4R moderate action impulsivity and choice impulsivity (together with DAT, COMT and α2AR).63
7.6. Autoreceptors (D2, D3, D4)
The presentation of this paragraph is based on Ruskin et al.26 and Cooper et al.80
Released catecholamines act not only on postsynaptic heteroreceptors (here on inhibitory as well as activating ones), but also on presynaptic autoreceptors. Autoreceptors are always inhibitory (D2, rarely also D3 and D4).
7.6.1. Effect of dopaminergic autoreceptors
Dopaminergic autoreceptors control three things:
- The dopaminergic firing rate
- the synthesis of dopamine
- the release of dopamine.
Autoreceptors are found presynaptically on many areas of dopaminergic neurons, including:
-
Soma (D2)
-
Dendrites (D2)
-
Terminals (D2)
- Autoreceptor stimulation is reduced:80
- Dopamine synthesis
- Dopamine release
- Autoreceptor stimulation is reduced:80
-
There are no terminal autoreceptors in PFC and ACC that influence dopamine synthesis80
-
there are terminal but no somatodendritic autoreceptors in the PFC82
The activation of D2 autoreceptors by
- exogenous administration of agonists
- causes potassium conductance-mediated inhibition of neurons in the substantia nigra and the VTA83
- electrical stimulation
The effect of autoreceptors depends on their temporal activation in relation to the action potential.
If D2 autoreceptors are activated immediately before the action potential from the nerve cell, they completely suppress the release of dopamine. The later they were activated after the action potential, the weaker the inhibition became. D2 activation 90 ms after the action potential only inhibited by just under 20 %, and from around 200 ms after the action potential it no longer inhibited at all. The inhibition was fully maintained for 10 minutes and then decreased over 30 minutes5
7.6.2. Up-/Downregulation of dopaminergic autoreceptors
Autoreceptors are 5 to 10 times more sensitive to agonists (e.g. dopamine or apomorphine) than postsynaptic dopamine receptors.82 Therefore, autoreceptors respond faster to agonists with downregulation than postsynaptic receptors 86 87 8889
Autoreceptors are subject to significant up- and downregulation.8082
Chronic administration of D2 antagonists or prolonged dopamine depletion cause their increased sensitization (upregulation).
Chronic administration of D2 agonists causes their reduced sensitization (downregulation).
Consequently, low doses of direct-acting agonists should preferentially activate autoreceptors, resulting in reduced tonic spike formation and transmitter release and thus reduced activation of postsynaptic dopamine receptors, which then mediate motor activation.
- Low doses of direct dopamine agonists
- reduce spontaneous motor behavior
- Higher doses of direct dopamine agonists
- can also activate postsynaptic receptors directly
- increase motor activity
From this model, it was hypothesized that low doses of stimulants have a calming effect in ADHD by reducing dopamine transmission.90
However, stimulants such as MPH and AMP are not direct-acting dopamine receptor agonists, but have an indirect effect. In addition, D-AMP acts equally strongly on postsynaptic and presynaptic receptors in the basal ganglia.89
7.6.3. Agonists and antagonists
D2 autoreceptors are only very slightly activated by tonically released extracellular dopamine. The activation appears to be mainly due to phasically released dopamine that diffuses from the synaptic cleft into the extracellular space.5 A high concentration (30-100 μM) of synaptically released dopamine binds to the D2 autoreceptor within less than 30 ms91 for around 90 ms5 and triggers its effect.
The D2 autoreceptor is also activated by noradrenaline, although its affinity for noradrenaline is weaker than for dopamine.5
There are some relatively selective autoreceptor agonists and antagonists:86
- Selective autoreceptor agonists:
- 3-PPP
- EMD 23-448
- Selective autoreceptor antagonists:
- (+)-UH232
- (+)-AJ76
7.6.4. Dopamine regulation through postsynaptic dopamine receptors
The regulation of dopaminergic activity is not controlled by autoreceptors in all brain regions. While the firing rate of the dopamine neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta is regulated by somatodendritic autoreceptors, the firing rate of the globus pallidus is regulated by postsynaptic dopamine receptors of the striatum and the globus pallidus itself.
In peripheral motor neurons, presynaptic inhibition can be mediated by signals from interneurons.81
7.7. Heterodimers and homodimers
Dopamine receptors form purely dopaminergic heteromers as well as heteromers with other receptor families, e.g:
- D1 / D2 - Heterodimers92
- D1 / D3 - Heterodimers95
- relevant for addiction93
- D2 / D2 homodimers96
- D2 / D3 heteromers93
- relevant for schizophrenia93
- D2 / D4 heteromers63
- in striatal terminals
- possibly in the perisomatic region of P neurons in the striatum
- relevant for ADHD93- -
- D2 / D5 heteromers93
- D4 / Alpha1A adrenoceptor - heteromers97
- relevant for ADHD: -D4.7 / Alpha1A adrenoceptor - heteromers
- relevant for PTSD: -D4.4 / Alpha1A adrenoceptor - heteromers
- D1 / Adenosine A1 - Heteromers93
- relevant for addiction93
- D2 / adenosine A2A heterodimers appear to be partly responsible for the psychomotor and reinforcing effects of psychostimulants such as cocaine and amphetamine.98
- Addiction, schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease93
- D2 / Adenosine-2A / Glutamate Metabotropic mGlu(5) - Heterotrimers in the striatum99
- relevant for schizophrenia93
- D2 / Cannabinoid-CB1 - Heterodimers in the striatum100
- D2 / Cannabinoid-CB1 / Adenosine-2A - Heretotrimers101102
- D1 / NMDA heteromer93
- relevant for schizophrenia93
- D2 / NMDA heteromer93
- relevant for addiction93
- D2 / 5HT2A heteromer93
- relevant for schizophrenia93
- D1 / Histamine H3 heteromer93
- relevant for ADHD, addiction, schizophrenia93
- D2 / Histamine H3 heteromer93
- relevant for ADHD, addiction, schizophrenia93
7.8. High-affinity and low-affinity receptor status
A high affinity state and a low affinity state are reported for dopamine receptors (high affinity state / low affinity state).96103
The high affinity state is the functional state for both D1 and D2 receptors. Stimulants can alter the balance between the high and low affinity state by increasing the extracellular level of dopamine.104
In the high state, the D2 receptor is 50% occupied by around 10 nM dopamine.105
The D2-high receptor state in the anterior pituitary can be completely converted to the D2-low state. The conversion in brain tissue seems to depend on the presence of serotonin receptors, as in the rat striatum or in the human nucleus accumbens, where very few serotonin receptors are found.106
7.9. Dopamine - Spare receptors / receptor reserve?
Receptor reserve (spare receptors) refers to the phenomenon that an agonist elicits the maximum response by activating only a fraction of the receptor population present in the system107
Little information is available on dopamine spare receptors.103
7.10. G-protein-independent dopamine receptor activation
Dopamine receptors can also be activated by mechanisms that are independent of G proteins:3
The multifunctional adaptor protein arrestin can bind DA receptors phosphorylated by GPCR kinases (GRKs) and recruit several proteins, including
- Act
- GSK-3
- MAPK
- c-Src
- Mdm2
- N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor.
If arrestin binds to active phosphorylated receptors, further activation of G proteins is stopped and endocytosis of the receptor is promoted.
Dopamine receptors continue to be regulated by G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs).
There are seven GRKs for mammals:
D1R and D2R regulate GRK2, 3, 4, 5, 6
D3R is controlled by GRK4.
In the striatum, GRKs 2, 3, 5 and 6 are expressed with different expression levels and different cellular and subcellular distribution.108
A DA lesion with 6-hydroxydopamine led to multiple protein- and brain region-specific changes in the expression of GRKs. Reduced were109
- in the globus pallidus:
- reduced: GRK2, 3, 5, 6
- caudal caudate-putamen:
- reduced: GRK2, 3, 6
-
rostral caudate putamen:
- reduced: GRK3
- increased: GRK6
- increased by subsequent L-dopa: GRK2
-
Nucleus accumbens
- increased: GRK6
These changes remained unchanged by subsequent L-DOPA and were reversed by the D2/D3 agonist pergolide. L-dopa downregulated GRK5.
Subsequent L-DOPA influenced the expression of arrestin3.
- increased: GRK6
