Abstract
Parkinson disease (PD) dementia, pathologically featured as nigrostriatal dopamine (DA) neuronal loss with motor and non-motor manifestations, leads to substantial disability and economic burden. DA therapy targets the DA D3 receptor (D3R) with high affinity and selectivity. The pathological involvement of D3R is evidenced as an effective biomarker for disease progression and DA agnostic interventions, with compensations of increased DA, decreased aggregates of α-synuclein (α-Syn), enhanced secretion of brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF), attenuation of neuroinflammation and oxidative damage, and promoting neurogenesis in the brain. D3R also interacts with D1R to reduce PD-associated motor symptoms and alleviate the side effects of levodopa (L-DOPA) treatment. We recently found that DA D2 receptor (D2R) density decreases in the late-stage PDs, while high D3R or DA D1 receptor (D1R) + D3R densities in the postmortem PD brains correlate with survival advantages. These new essential findings warrant renewed investigations into the understanding of D3R neuron populations and their cross-sectional and longitudinal regulations in PD progression.

Abstract
The discovery of the D3 receptor (D3R) subtypes of dopamine (DA) has generated an understandable increase in interest in the field of neurological diseases, especially Parkinson’s disease (PD). Indeed, although DA replacement therapy with l-DOPA has provided an effective treatment for patients with PD, it is responsible for invalidating abnormal involuntary movements, known as L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia, which constitutes a serious limitation of the use of this therapy. Of particular interest is the finding that chronic l-DOPA treatment can trigger the expression of D1R–D3R heteromeric interactions in the dorsal striatum. The D3R is expressed in various tissues of the central nervous system, including the striatum. Compelling research has focused on striatal D3Rs in the context of PD and motor side effects, including dyskinesia, occurring with DA replacement therapy. Therefore, this review will briefly describe the basal ganglia (BG) and the DA transmission within these brain regions, before going into more detail with regard to the role of D3Rs in PD and their participation in the current treatments. Numerous studies have also highlighted specific interactions between D1Rs and D3Rs that could promote dyskinesia. Finally, this review will also address the possibility that D3Rs located outside of the BG may mediate some of the effects of DA replacement therapy.

The Cyclic Nitroxide TEMPOL Ameliorates Oxidative Stress but Not Inflammation in a Cell Model of Parkinson’s Disease. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11020257. [PMID: 35204139 PMCID: PMC8868255 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11020257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2022] [Accepted: 01/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
The cyclic nitroxide TEMPOL exerts anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects, and thus may provide therapeutic benefit in Parkinson’s disease (PD), in which mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative damage and inflammation have been implicated as pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the selective loss of dopaminergic neurons. Markers of oxidative stress and inflammation were investigated in a cell model of differentiated human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells treated with the neurotoxin, 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). Treatment with TEMPOL ameliorated 6-OHDA-mediated cytotoxicity and attenuated biomarkers of oxidative stress including: mitochondrial superoxide anion free radical production, lipid peroxidation, induction of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) protein expression and NFκB activation. Treatment with TEMPOL abated decreased gene expression of DRD2S and DRD2L induced by 6-OHDA indicating that TEMPOL may prevent mitochondrial dysfunction and activation of pathways that result in receptor desensitization. 6-OHDA insult decreased gene expression of the antioxidant, SOD-1, and this diminution was also mitigated by TEMPOL. Activation of NFκB increased pro-inflammatory IFNy and decreased IL-6, however, TEMPOL had no effect on these inflammation mediators. Overall, this data suggests that cyclic nitroxides may preserve dopaminergic neuronal cell viability by attenuating oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, but are unable to affect inflammatory mediators that propagate cellular damage and neurodegeneration in PD.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex multisystem, chronic and so far incurable disease with significant unmet medical needs. The incidence of PD increases with aging and the expected burden will continue to escalate with our aging population. Since its discovery in the 1961 levodopa has remained the gold standard pharmacotherapy for PD. However, the progressive nature of the neurodegenerative process in and beyond the nigrostriatal system causes a multitude of side effects, including levodopa-induced dyskinesia within 5 years of therapy. Attenuating dyskinesia has been a significant challenge in the clinical management of PD. We report on a small molecule that eliminates the expression of levodopa-induced dyskinesia and significantly improves PD-like symptoms. The lead compound PD13R we discovered is a dopamine D3 receptor partial agonist with high affinity and selectivity, orally active and with desirable drug-like properties. Future studies are aimed at developing this lead compound for treating PD patients with dyskinesia.

Abstract
The elderly population is growing worldwide, with important health and socioeconomic implications. Clinical and experimental studies on aging have uncovered numerous changes in the brain, such as decreased neurogenesis, increased synaptic defects, greater metabolic stress, and enhanced inflammation. These changes are associated with cognitive decline and neurobehavioral deficits. Although aging is not a disease, it is a significant risk factor for functional worsening, affective impairment, disease exaggeration, dementia, and general disease susceptibility. Conversely, life events related to mental stress and trauma can also lead to accelerated age-associated disorders and dementia. Here, we review human studies and studies on mice and rats, such as those modeling human neurodegenerative diseases, that have helped elucidate (1) the dynamics and mechanisms underlying the biological and pathological aging of the main projecting systems in the brain (glutamatergic, cholinergic, and dopaminergic) and (2) the effect of defective glutamatergic, cholinergic, and dopaminergic projection on disabilities associated with aging and neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Detailed knowledge of the mechanisms of age-related diseases can be an important element in the development of effective ways of treatment. In this context, we briefly analyze which adverse changes associated with neurodegenerative diseases in the cholinergic, glutaminergic and dopaminergic systems could be targeted by therapeutic strategies developed as a result of our better understanding of these damaging mechanisms.

Abstract
Adenosine A1/A2A receptors (A1R/A2AR) represent targets in nondopaminergic treatment of motor disorders such as Parkinson's disease (PD). As an innovative strategy, multitargeting ligands (MTLs) were developed to achieve comprehensive PD therapies simultaneously addressing comorbid symptoms such as sleep disruption. Recognizing the wake-promoting capacity of histamine H3 receptor (H3R) antagonists in combination with the "caffeine-like effects" of A1R/A2AR antagonists, we designed A1R/A2AR/H3R MTLs, where a piperidino-/pyrrolidino(propyloxy)phenyl H3R pharmacophore was introduced with overlap into an adenosine antagonist arylindenopyrimidine core. These MTLs showed distinct receptor binding profiles with overall nanomolar H3R affinities (Ki < 55 nM). Compound 4 (ST-2001, Ki (A1R) = 11.5 nM, Ki (A2AR) = 7.25 nM) and 12 (ST-1992, Ki (A1R) = 11.2 nM, Ki (A2AR) = 4.01 nM) were evaluated in vivo. l-DOPA-induced dyskinesia was improved after administration of compound 4 (1 mg kg-1, i.p. rats). Compound 12 (2 mg kg-1, p.o. mice) increased wakefulness representing novel pharmacological tools for PD therapy.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the correlation between the Dopamine D3 receptor (DRD3) 3'untranslated region (3'UTR) gene polymorphism and susceptibility to Parkinson's disease (PD) and the clinical effect of the DRD2 and DRD3 agonist piribedil treatment. Methods: Sanger sequencing was used to analyze the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the 3'UTR rs76126170, rs9868039, rs9817063, and rs3732790 loci of the DRD3 gene in 284 PD patients and 284 controls. PD patients were treated with piribedil sustained-release tablets (50 mg) combined with levodopa and benserazide hydrochloride tablets, three times daily (patients with first-diagnosed PD were only administrated with piribedil sustained-release tablets) for 3 months. The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and the Hoehn and Yahr disease stage were evaluated at baseline and after 3 months of treatment. Results: The T allele carriers of the DRD3 gene rs76126170 locus were more susceptible to PD than the C allele carriers (odds ratio [OR] = 3.44, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.46-4.80, p < 0.01). Carriers of the rs9868039 A allele had a decreased risk of PD compared to those with G allele (OR = 0.67, 95% CI: 0.53-0.86, p < 0.01). C allele carriers at rs9817063 were less likely to develop PD than those with T allele (OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.58-0.94, p = 0.02). No significant correlation was observed between the alleles or genotypes of the rs3732790 locus and PD susceptibility (p > 0.05). The various genotypes of the DRD3 gene loci rs76126170, rs9868039, and rs9817063 in PD patients were associated with significant differences with regard to reduction of UPDRS scores and Hoehn and Yahr stage after 3 months of treatment (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The alleles and genotypes of the DRD3 gene 3' UTR SNP loci rs76126170, rs9868039, and rs9817063 are associated with PD susceptibility and the clinical efficacy of piribedil treatment.

Abstract
Early- and late-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD and LOPD, respectively) have different risk factors, clinical features, and disease course; however, the functional outcome of these differences have not been well characterized. This study investigated differences in global brain synchronization changes and their clinical significance in EOPD and LOPD patients. Patients with idiopathic PD including 25 EOPD and 24 LOPD patients, and age- and sex-matched healthy control (HC) subjects including 27 younger and 26 older controls (YCs and OCs, respectively) were enrolled. Voxel-based degree centrality (DC) was calculated as a measure of global synchronization and compared between PD patients and HC groups matched in terms of disease onset and severity. DC was decreased in bilateral Rolandic operculum and left insula and increased in the left superior frontal gyrus (SFG) and precuneus of EOPD patients compared to YCs. DC was decreased in the right putamen, mid-cingulate cortex, bilateral Rolandic operculum, and left insula and increased in the right cerebellum-crus1 of LOPD patients compared to OCs. Correlation analyses showed that DC in the right cerebellum-crus1 was inversely associated with the Hamilton Depression Scale (HDS) score in LOPD patients. Thus, EOPD and LOPD patients show distinct alterations in global synchronization relative to HCs. Furthermore, our results suggest that the left SFG and right cerebellum-crus1 play important roles in the compensation for corticostriatal-thalamocortical loop injury in EOPD and LOPD patients, whereas the cerebellum is a key hub in the neural mechanisms underlying LOPD with depression. These findings provide new insight into the clinical heterogeneity of the two PD subtypes.

Abstract
Highlights In the current review, we thoroughly reviewed 74 identified articles regarding genes and genetic loci that confer susceptibility to ET. Over 50 genes/genetic loci have been examined for possible association with ET, but consistent results failed to be reported raising the need for collaborative multiethnic studies. Background: Essential tremor (ET) is a common movement disorder, which is mainly characterized by bilateral tremor (postural and/or kinetic) in the upper limbs, with other parts of the body possibly involved. While the pathophysiology of ET is still unclear, there is accumulating evidence indicating that genetic variability may be heavily involved in ET pathogenesis. This review focuses on the role of genetic risk factors in ET susceptibility. Methods: The PubMed database was searched for articles written in English, for studies with humans with ET, controls without ET, and genetic variants. The terms “essential tremor” and “polymorphism” (as free words) were used during search. We also performed meta-analyses for the most examined genetic variants. Results: Seventy four articles concerning LINGO1, LINGO2, LINGO4, SLC1A2, STK32B, PPARGC1A, CTNNA3, DRD3, ALAD, VDR, HMOX1, HMOX2, LRRK1,LRRK2, GBA, SNCA, MAPT, FUS, CYPsIL17A, IL1B, NOS1, ADH1B, TREM2, RIT2, HNMT, MTHFR, PPP2R2B, GSTP1, PON1, GABA receptors and GABA transporter, HS1BP3, ADH2, hSKCa3 and CACNL1A4 genes, and ETM genetic loci were included in the current review. Results from meta-analyses revealed a marginal association for the STK32B rs10937625 and a marginal trend for association (in sensitivity analysis) for the LINGO1 rs9652490, with ET. Discussion: Quite a few variants have been examined for their possible association with ET. LINGO1 rs9652490 and STK32B rs10937625 appear to influence, to some extent, ET susceptibility. However, the conflicting results and the lack of replication for many candidate genes raise the need for collaborative multiethnic studies.

Abstract
Essential tremor (ET) is a neurological movement disorder characterised by bilateral limb kinetic/postural tremor, with or without tremor in other body parts including head, voice and lower limbs. Since no causative genes for ET have been identified, it is likely that the disorder occurs as a result of complex genetic factors interacting with various cellular and environmental factors that can result in abnormal function of circuitry involving the cerebello-thalamo-cortical pathway. Genetic analyses have uncovered at least 14 loci and 11 genes that are related to ET, as well as various risk or protective genetic factors. Limitations in ET genetic analyses include inconsistent disease definition, small sample size, varied ethnic backgrounds and many other factors that may contribute to paucity of relevant genetic data in ET. Genetic analyses, coupled with functional and animal studies, have led to better insights into possible pathogenic mechanisms underlying ET. These genetic studies may guide the future development of genetic testing and counselling, and specific, pathogenesis-targeted, therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
In the striatum, adenosine A2A receptors (A2AR) are mainly expressed within the soma and dendrites of the striatopallidal neuron. A predominant proportion of these striatal postsynaptic A2AR form part of the macromolecular complexes that include A2AR-dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) heteromers, Golf and Gi/o proteins, and the effector adenylyl cyclase (AC), subtype AC5. The A2AR-D2R heteromers have a tetrameric structure, constituted by A2AR and D2R homomers. By means of reciprocal antagonistic allosteric interactions and antagonistic interactions at the effector level between adenosine and dopamine, the A2AR-D2R heterotetramer-AC5 complex acts an integrative molecular device, which determines a switch between the adenosine-facilitated activation and the dopamine-facilitated inhibition of the striatopallidal neuron. Striatal adenosine also plays an important presynaptic modulatory role, driving the function of corticostriatal terminals. This control is mediated by adenosine A1 receptors (A1R) and A2AR, which establish intermolecular interactions forming A1R-A2AR heterotetramers. Here, we review the functional role of both presynaptic and postsynaptic striatal A2AR heterotetramers as well as their possible neuroprotective role. We hypothesize that alterations in the homomer/heteromer stoichiometry (i.e., increase or decrease in the proportion of A2AR forming homomers or heteromers) are pathogenetically involved in neurological disorders, specifically in Parkinson's disease and restless legs syndrome.

Abstract
Restless Legs Syndrome/Willis-Ekbom Disease (RLS/WED) is a common sleep related movement disorder that can be idiopathic or occurs in comorbidity with other medical conditions such as polyneuropathy, iron deficiency anemia, multiple sclerosis, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. In recent years, a growing body of literature investigated the association between RLS/WED and Parkinson's Disease (PD). Several questions regarding the comorbidity between these two disorders are still unanswered. If the insurgence of RLS/WED may precede the onset of PD, or if RLS/WED could represent a secondary condition of PD and if impaired dopaminergic pathway may represent a bridge between these two conditions are still debatable issues. In this review, we critically discuss the relationship between RLS/WED and PD by reviewing cross sectional and longitudinal studies, as well as the role of dopamine in these disorders. A twofold interpretation have to be taken into account: dopaminergic therapy may have a crucial role in the development of RLS/WED in PD patients or RLS/WED can be conceived as an early manifestation of PD rather than a risk factor. Several studies showed a high prevalence of RLS/WED in PD patients and several findings related to dopaminergic and iron alterations in both disorders, however up to now it is difficult to find a point of agreement between studies. A greater number of systematic and strongly controlled longitudinal studies as well as basic pathophysiological investigations particularly in RLS/WED are needed to clarify this complex relationship.

Abstract
Non-human primate (NHP) models of Parkinson disease show many similarities with the human disease. They are very useful to test novel pharmacotherapies as reviewed here. The various NHP models of this disease are described with their characteristics including the macaque, the marmoset, and the squirrel monkey models. Lesion-induced and genetic models are described. There is no drug to slow, delay, stop, or cure Parkinson disease; available treatments are symptomatic. The dopamine precursor, L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-Dopa) still remains the gold standard symptomatic treatment of Parkinson. However, involuntary movements termed L-Dopa-induced dyskinesias appear in most patients after chronic treatment and may become disabling. Dyskinesias are very difficult to manage and there is only amantadine approved providing only a modest benefit. In this respect, NHP models have been useful to seek new drug targets, since they reproduce motor complications observed in parkinsonian patients. Therapies to treat motor symptoms in NHP models are reviewed with a discussion of their translational value to humans. Disease-modifying treatments tested in NHP are reviewed as well as surgical treatments. Many biochemical changes in the brain of post-mortem Parkinson disease patients with dyskinesias are reviewed and compare well with those observed in NHP models. Non-motor symptoms can be categorized into psychiatric, autonomic, and sensory symptoms. These symptoms are present in most parkinsonian patients and are already installed many years before the pre-motor phase of the disease. The translational usefulness of NHP models of Parkinson is discussed for non-motor symptoms.

Abstract
Parkinson disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer disease. Although PD has a relatively narrow clinical phenotype, it has become clear that its etiological basis is broad. Post-mortem brain analysis, despite its limitations, has provided invaluable insights into relevant pathogenic pathways including mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress and protein homeostasis dysregulation. Identification of the genetic causes of PD followed the discovery of these abnormalities, and reinforced the importance of the biochemical defects identified post-mortem. Recent genetic studies have highlighted the mitochondrial and lysosomal areas of cell function as particularly significant in mediating the neurodegeneration of PD. Thus the careful analysis of post-mortem PD brain biochemistry remains a crucial component of research, and one that offers considerable opportunity to pursue etiological factors either by 'reverse biochemistry' i.e. from defective pathway to mutant gene, or by the complex interplay between pathways e.g. mitochondrial turnover by lysosomes. In this review we have documented the spectrum of biochemical defects identified in PD post-mortem brain and explored their relevance to metabolic pathways involved in neurodegeneration. We have highlighted the complex interactions between these pathways and the gene mutations causing or increasing risk for PD. These pathways are becoming a focus for the development of disease modifying therapies for PD. Parkinson's is accompanied by multiple changes in the brain that are responsible for the progression of the disease. We describe here the molecular alterations occurring in postmortem brains and classify them as: Neurotransmitters and neurotrophic factors; Lewy bodies and Parkinson's-linked genes; Transition metals, calcium and calcium-binding proteins; Inflammation; Mitochondrial abnormalities and oxidative stress; Abnormal protein removal and degradation; Apoptosis and transduction pathways. This article is part of a special issue on Parkinson disease.

The transfection of BDNF to dopamine neurons potentiates the effect of dopamine D3 receptor agonist recovering the striatal innervation, dendritic spines and motor behavior in an aged rat model of Parkinson's disease. PLoS One 2015; 10:e0117391.

Abstract
The progressive degeneration of the dopamine neurons of the pars compacta of substantia nigra and the consequent loss of the dopamine innervation of the striatum leads to the impairment of motor behavior in Parkinson's disease. Accordingly, an efficient therapy of the disease should protect and regenerate the dopamine neurons of the substantia nigra and the dopamine innervation of the striatum. Nigral neurons express Brain Derived Neurotropic Factor (BDNF) and dopamine D3 receptors, both of which protect the dopamine neurons. The chronic activation of dopamine D3 receptors by their agonists, in addition, restores, in part, the dopamine innervation of the striatum. Here we explored whether the over-expression of BDNF by dopamine neurons potentiates the effect of the activation of D3 receptors restoring nigrostriatal innervation. Twelve-month old Wistar rats were unilaterally injected with 6-hydroxydopamine into the striatum. Five months later, rats were treated with the D3 agonist 7-hydroxy-N,N-di-n-propy1-2-aminotetralin (7-OH-DPAT) administered i.p. during 4½ months via osmotic pumps and the BDNF gene transfection into nigral cells using the neurotensin-polyplex nanovector (a non-viral transfection) that selectively transfect the dopamine neurons via the high-affinity neurotensin receptor expressed by these neurons. Two months after the withdrawal of 7-OH-DPAT when rats were aged (24 months old), immunohistochemistry assays were made. The over-expression of BDNF in rats receiving the D3 agonist normalized gait and motor coordination; in addition, it eliminated the muscle rigidity produced by the loss of dopamine. The recovery of motor behavior was associated with the recovery of the nigral neurons, the dopamine innervation of the striatum and of the number of dendritic spines of the striatal neurons. Thus, the over-expression of BDNF in dopamine neurons associated with the chronic activation of the D3 receptors appears to be a promising strategy for restoring dopamine neurons in Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
The functions of the D1- and D2-dopamine receptors in the basal ganglia have remained somewhat enigmatic, with a number of competing theories relating to the interactions of the 'direct' and 'indirect pathways'. Computational models have been good at simulating properties of the system, but are typically divorced from the underlying neural architecture. In this article we propose a new model which re-addresses response selection at the level of the basal ganglia. At the core of this response selection system the D1 DA receptor-expressing striatal pathways 'prepare' the set of possible appropriate responses. The D2DR-expressing striatal pathways then shape and 'select' from this initial response set framework. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Ventral Tegmentum & Dopamine.

Abstract
There is considerable interest in developing highly selective dopamine (DA) D3 receptor ligands for a variety of mental health disorders. DA D3 receptors have been implicated in Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders. The most concrete evidence suggests a role for the D3 receptor in drug-seeking behaviors. D3 receptors are a subtype of D2 receptors, and traditionally the functional role of these two receptors has been difficult to differentiate. Over the past 10-15 years a number of compounds selective for D3 over D2 receptors have been developed. However, translating these findings into clinical research has been difficult as many of these compounds cannot be used in humans. Therefore, the functional data involving the D3 receptor in drug addiction mostly comes from pre-clinical studies. Recently, with the advent of [(11)C]-(+)-PHNO, it has become possible to image D3 receptors in the human brain with increased selectivity and sensitivity. This is a significant innovation over traditional methods such as [(11)C]-raclopride that cannot differentiate between D2 and D3 receptors. The use of [(11)C]-(+)-PHNO will allow for further delineation of the role of D3 receptors. Here, we review recent evidence that the role of the D3 receptor has functional importance and is distinct from the role of the D2 receptor. We then introduce the utility of analyzing [(11)C]-(+)-PHNO binding by region of interest. This novel methodology can be used in pre-clinical and clinical approaches for the measurement of occupancy of both D3 and D2 receptors. Evidence that [(11)C]-(+)-PHNO can provide insights into the function of D3 receptors in addiction is also presented.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological disorder characterized by the manifestation of motor symptoms, such as akinesia, muscle rigidity and tremor at rest. These symptoms are classically attributed to the degeneration of dopamine neurons in the pars compacta of substantia nigra (SNc), which results in a marked dopamine depletion in the striatum. It is well established that dopamine neurons in the SNc innervate not only the striatum, which is the main target, but also other basal ganglia nuclei including the two segments of globus pallidus and the subthalamic nucleus (STN). The role of dopamine and its depletion in the striatum is well known, however, the role of dopamine depletion in the pallidal complex and the STN in the genesis of their abnormal neuronal activity and in parkinsonian motor deficits is still not clearly determined. Based on recent experimental data from animal models of Parkinson's disease in rodents and non-human primates and also from parkinsonian patients, this review summarizes current knowledge on the role of dopamine in the modulation of basal ganglia neuronal activity and also the role of dopamine depletion in these nuclei in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
The regulation of D₃ receptor has not been well documented in diffuse Lewy body disease (DLBD). In this study, a novel D₃-preferring radioligand [(3)H]WC-10 and a D₂-preferring radioligand [(3)H]raclopride were used and the absolute densities of the dopamine D₃ and D₂ receptors were determined in the striatal regions and substantia nigra (SN) from postmortem brains from five cases of DLBD, which included dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB, n=4) and Parkinson disease dementia (PDD, n=1). The densities of the dopamine D₁ receptor, vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2), and dopamine transporter (DAT) were also measured by quantitative autoradiography using [(3)H]SCH23390, [(3)H]dihydrotetrabenazine, and [(3)H]WIN35428, respectively. The densities of these dopaminergic markers were also measured in the same brain regions in 10 age-matched control cases. Dopamine D₃ receptor density was significantly increased in the striatal regions including caudate, putamen and nucleus accumbens (NAc). There were no significant changes in the dopamine D₁ and D₂ receptor densities in any brain regions measured. VMAT2 and DAT densities were reduced in all the brain regions measured in DLB/PDD, however, the significant reduction was found in the putamen for DAT and in the NAc and SN for VMAT2. The decrease of dopamine pre-synaptic markers implies neuronal loss in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) in these DLB/PDD cases, while the increase of D₃ receptors in striatal regions could be attributed to dopaminergic medication history and psychiatric states such as hallucinations. Whether it also reflects compensatory regulation upon dopaminergic denervation warrants further confirmations on larger populations.

Abstract
A series of N-(2-methoxyphenyl)homopiperazine analogs was prepared and their affinities for dopamine D2, D3, and D4 receptors were measured using competitive radioligand binding assays. Several ligands exhibited high binding affinity and selectivity for the D3 dopamine receptor compared to the D2 receptor subtype. Compounds 11a, 11b, 11c, 11f, 11j and 11k had K(i) values ranging from 0.7 to 3.9 nM for the D3 receptor with 30- to 170-fold selectivity for the D3 versus D2 receptor. Calculated logP values (logP=2.6-3.6) are within the desired range for passive transport across the blood-brain barrier. When the binding and the intrinsic efficacy of these phenylhomopiperazines was compared to those of previously published phenylpiperazine analogues, it was found that (a) affinity at D2 and D3 dopamine receptors generally decreased, (b) the D3 receptor binding selectivity (D2:D3 K(i) value ratio) decreased and, (c) the intrinsic efficacy, measured using a forskolin-dependent adenylyl cyclase inhibition assay, generally increased.

Abstract
Dopamine dysregulation syndrome in Parkinson's disease (PD) has been attributed to dopamine replacement therapy (DRT). We hypothesize that DRT can induce a potential rewarding effect in an animal model of PD. Using the conditioned place preference (CPP) paradigm, we investigated the motivational effects of L-dopa, dopamine receptor agonists (DRAs), and cocaine in rat with a bilateral 6-OHDA lesion of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathway. In 6-OHDA animals, D1 receptors agonist (SKF81297) revealed significantly a conditioned place aversion (CPA) at 3 mg/kg and 9 mg/kg doses. D2 receptors agonist (bromocriptine) induced both CPP and CPA at 1 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg doses respectively. D3 receptors agonist (PD128907) induced a CPP only at 1 mg/kg, comparable to that of cocaine. Sham animals revealed biphasic CPP curves, with significant dose effect, for the intermediate dose of the 3 DRAs. However, L-dopa induced no significant effect while cocaine induced CPP in both lesioned and sham animals. In conclusion, this study confirms the predominant roles of D2R class, and most specifically D3R subtypes, in rewarding properties of DRT.

Abstract
Dopamine receptors are widely distributed within the central nervous system with its highest expression in the striatum. Two different families of dopamine receptors have been identified. The D₁ family comprises D₁ and D5 receptors, whereas D₂, D₃, and D₄ receptors form the D₂ family. These 2 families mediate different behavior patterns that are linked to activation of specific transduction pathways. The functional relevance of dopamine receptors derives from the reduced dopamine content found in the striatum of Parkinson disease (PD) patients and the ability of dopamine and dopamine receptors to reverse the motor deficits exhibited by PD patients. During the last 2 decades dopamine receptor agonists have been used either in de novo PD patients to prevent the appearance of dyskinesias or in PD patients with motor fluctuations to reduce the number of daily "off" hours. It seems that all dopamine receptors agonists produce similar motor responses and adverse effects, but data comparing their effectiveness in the treatment of PD are not available. In this article we summarize the main characteristics of dopamine receptors, their structure, their signaling pathways, and the responses mediated by their independent activation. Here is also described the therapeutic value of the different dopamine receptor agonists in the treatment of PD.

Abstract
Neostriatum plays an important role in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the changes of sensitivity of dopamine receptors of neostriatal neurons in PD have been less addressed in vivo. In the present study, systemic exposure to paraquat and maneb induced Parkinsonian symptoms and neuronal loss of substantia nigra pars compacta. Using single-unit recording methods, three types of neostriatal neurons were recorded including medium spiny-like neurons, large aspiny-like neurons and fast-spiking interneurons. In the exposed rats, increased firing activity of neostriatal neurons was revealed when compared to control rats. Following D1 receptor agonist, SKF38393 and D2 receptor agonist, LY171555 iontophoretically administrated respectively, effects of increase and decrease in firing activity were both observed in neostriatal neurons. However, stronger inhibitory effects of activating D1 receptors and weaker excitatory effects of activating D2 receptors were found in the exposed rats as compared to controls. It indicated that differential changes of sensitivity of D1 and D2 receptors in Parkinson's disease were related to the modulation of the imbalance between D1-receptor-dependent striatonigral direct pathway and D2-receptor-dependent striatopallidal indirect pathway. Our results illustrate the electrophysiological changes of in vivo neostriatal neurons in Parkinson's disease, thereby providing insight into the regulatory mechanisms of dopamine-mediated physiology.

Abstract
A series of compounds structurally related to aripiprazole (1), an atypical antipsychotic and antidepressant used clinically for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression, have been prepared and evaluated for affinity at D(₂-like) dopamine receptors. These compounds also share structural elements with the classical D(₂-like) dopamine receptor antagonists, haloperidol, N-methylspiperone, domperidone and benperidol. Two new compounds, 7-(4-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl)butoxy)-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one oxalate (6) and 7-(4-(4-(2-(2-fluoroethoxy)phenyl)piperazin-1-yl)butoxy)-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one oxalate (7) were found to (a) bind to the D₂ receptor subtype with high affinity (K(i) values < 0.3 nM), (b) exhibit >50-fold D₂ versus D₃ receptor binding selectivity and (c) be partial agonists at both the D₂ and D₃ receptor subtype.

PDE10A and PDE10A-dependent cAMP catabolism are dysregulated oppositely in striatum and nucleus accumbens after lesion of midbrain dopamine neurons in rat: a key step in parkinsonism physiopathology. Neurobiol Dis 2011; 43:293-303.

Abstract
Loss of dopamine neurons in experimental parkinsonism results in altered cyclic nucleotide cAMP and cGMP levels throughout the basal ganglia. Our objective was to examine whether expression of phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A), an isozyme presenting a unique distribution in basal ganglia, is altered after unilateral injection of 6-hydroxydopamine in the medial forebrain bundle, eliminating all midbrain dopaminergic neurons, such that cyclic nucleotide catabolism and steady state could be affected. Our study demonstrates that PDE10A mRNA levels were decreased in striatal neurons 10 weeks after 6-hydroxydopamine midbrain lesion. Such changes occurred in the striatum ipsilateral to lesion and were paralleled by decreased PDE10A protein levels and activity in striatal neurons and in striato-pallidal and striato-nigral projections. However, PDE10A protein and activity were increased while PDE10A mRNA was unchanged in the nucleus accumbens ipsilateral to the 6-hydroxydopamine midbrain lesion. Accordingly, cAMP levels were down-regulated in the nucleus accumbens, and up-regulated in the striatum ipsilateral to the lesion, but they were not significantly changed in substantia nigra and globus pallidus. Unlike cAMP, cGMP levels were decreased in all dopamine-deafferented regions. The opposite variations of cAMP steady state in striatum and nucleus accumbens are concordant and likely dependent, at least in part, on the down-regulation of PDE10A expression and activity in the former and its up-regulation in the latter. On the other hand, the down-regulation of cGMP steady state in the striato-nigral and striato-pallidal complex is not consistent with and is likely independent from the concomitant down-regulation of PDE10A. Therefore, dopamine loss inversely regulates PDE10A gene expression in the striatum and PDE10A post-transcription in the nucleus accumbens, therein differentially modulating PDE10A-dependent cAMP catabolism.

Abstract
4-(Dimethylamino)-N-(4-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl)butyl)benzamide (WC-10), a N-phenyl piperazine analog, displays high affinity and moderate selectivity for dopamine D(3) receptors versus dopamine D(2) receptors (Chu et al. [2005] Bioorg Med Chem 13:77-87). In this study, WC-10 was radiolabeled with tritium (specific activity = 80 Ci/mmol), and quantitative autoradiography studies were conducted using rhesus monkey and Sprague-Dawley rat brain sections. K(d) values for the binding of [3H]WC-10 to D(3) receptors obtained from quantitative autoradiography with rhesus monkey and rat brain sections are in agreement with K(d) values obtained from cloned human and rat receptors (Xu et al. [2009] Synapse 63:717-728). The D(2) selective antagonist [3H]raclopride binds with 11-fold higher affinity to human HEK D(2L) (K(d) = 1.6 nM) than HEK D(3) (K(d) = 18 nM) receptors; [3H]raclopride binds to rat Sf9 rD(2L) receptors with a K(d) of 6.79 nM, a value that is 4-fold lower than binding to human HEK D(2L) receptors and 2.5-fold higher than binding to rat Sf9 rD(3) receptors. In vitro quantitative autoradiography studies with [3H]WC-10 and [3H]raclopride were conducted on adult rat and rhesus monkey brain sections. A mathematical model for calculating the absolute densities of dopamine D(2) and D(3) receptors based on the in vitro receptor binding data of [3H]WC-10 and [3H]raclopride was developed.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease is a complex disease characterized by a progressive degeneration of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons. The development of this condition is defined by the interaction between the genetic constitution of an organism and environmental factors. Analysis of the genes associated with development of monogenic forms of disease has allowed pointing out several mechanisms involved in Parkinson's disease pathogenesis such as the ubiquitin-proteasome degradation, differentiation of dopaminergic neurons, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative damage, and others. In this review, a variety of data which throw light on molecular mechanisms underlying pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease will be considered.

Abstract
G protein-coupled receptor kinase 5 (GRK5) has been reported to accumulate in Lewy bodies (LBs), a histological hallmark of Parkinson's disease. Recent findings propose that GRK5 might function in Parkinson's disease via phosphorylation of alpha-synuclein, a major component of LBs. In this study, the changes of the expression levels of GRK5 and its possible effects in Parkinson's disease were evaluated in cell lines and transgenic mice model of alpha-synuclein overexpression. Both the expression levels of cytoplasmic and nuclear distributed GRK5 were induced an increase via alpha-synuclein overexpression in vivo and in vitro. The observations that the levels of alpha-synuclein phosphorylated at Ser-129 (pS129-alpha-synuclein) remain unchanged despite the downregulation of GRK5 by short hairpin ribonucleic acid (shRNA) transfection suggest that GRK5 is not the sole kinase involved in phosphorylating alpha-synuclein in Parkinson's disease. In addition, the findings that nuclear accumulation of GRK5 inhibits bcl-2 transcription and expression, at least in part by enhancing histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity, show an unexpected role for nuclear GRK5 in the regulation of an apoptosis-related gene. The present study suggests that GRK5 may be extensively involved in the mechanism of Parkinson's disease.

[(3)H]WC-10 binds with a 66-fold higher affinity to human HEK D(3) than HEK D(2L) receptors, with a dissociation constant (K(d)) of 1.2 nM at HEK D(3) receptors. However, [(3)H]WC-10 binds to rat Sf9 rD(3) receptors with a K(d) of 3.9 nM, a value that is 3-fold lower than binding to human HEK D(3) receptors and 40-fold value higher than binding to rat Sf9 rD(2L) receptors. The K(d) values obtained from saturation binding experiments were consistent with the results determined from kinetic (k(on) and k(off)) studies. The pharmacologic profiles of a series of dopaminergic drugs for inhibiting the binding of [(3)H]WC-10 to D(3) receptors was in agreement with previously reported data. In vitro autoradiography studies of rat and monkey brains show that [(3)H]WC-10 labeled D(3) sites in the striatal region.

Abstract
Drug dependence is a chronic, relapsing disorder in which compulsive drug-seeking and drug-taking behaviours persist despite serious negative consequences. Addictive substances, such as opioids, ethanol, psychostimulants and nicotine, induce pleasant states or relieve distress, effects that contribute to their recreational use. Dopamine is critically involved in drug addiction processes. However, the role of the various dopaminergic receptor subtypes has been difficult to delineate. Here, we will review the information collected implicating the receptors of the D1 family (DRD1 and DRD5) and of the D2 family (DRD2, DRD3 and DRD4) in drug addiction. We will summarize the distribution of these receptors in the brain, the preclinical experiments carried out with pharmacological and transgenic approaches and the genetic studies carried out linking genetic variants of these receptors to drug addiction phenotypes. A meta-analysis of the studies carried out evaluating DRD2 and alcohol dependence is also provided, which indicates a significant association. Overall, this review indicates that different aspects of the addiction phenotype are critically influenced by dopaminergic receptors and that variants of those genes seem to influence some addiction phenotypes in humans.

Abstract
Like humans with Parkinson's disease (PD), the ak mouse lacks the majority of the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) and experiences striatal denervation. The purpose of this study was to test whether motor abnormalities in the ak mouse progress over time, and whether motor function could be associated with temporal alterations in the striatal transcriptome. Ak and wt mice (28 to 180 days old) were tested using paradigms sensitive to nigrostriatal dysfunction. Results were analyzed using a linear mixed model. Ak mice significantly underperformed wt controls in rotarod, balance beam, string test, pole test and cotton shred tests at all ages examined. Motor performance in ak mice remained constant over the first 6 months of life, with the exception of the cotton shred test, in which ak mice exhibited marginal decline in performance. Dorsal striatal semi-quantitative RT-PCR for 19 dopaminergic, cholinergic, glutaminergic and catabolic genes was performed in 1- and 6-month-old groups of ak and wt mice. Preproenkephalin levels in ak mice were elevated in both age groups. Drd1, 3 and 4 levels declined over time, in contrast to increasing Drd2 expression. Additional findings included decreased Chrnalpha6 expression and elevated VGluT1 expression at both time points in ak mice and elevated AchE expression in young ak mice only. Results confirm that motor ability does not decline significantly for the first 6 months of life in ak mice. Their striatal gene expression patterns are consistent with dopaminergic denervation, and change over time, despite relatively unaltered motor performance.

Abstract
The striatum receives prominent dopaminergic innervation that is integral to appetitive learning, performance, and motivation. Signaling through the dopamine D2 receptor is critical for all of these processes. For instance, drugs with high affinity for the D2 receptor potently alter timing of operant responses and modulate motivation. Recently, in an attempt to model a genetic abnormality encountered in schizophrenia, mice were generated that reversibly overexpress D2 receptors specifically in the striatum (Kellendonk et al., 2006). These mice have impairments in working memory and behavioral flexibility, components of the cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia, that are not rescued when D2 overexpression is reversed in the adult. Here we report that overexpression of striatal D2 receptors also profoundly affects operant performance, a potential index of negative symptoms. Mice overexpressing D2 exhibited impairments in the ability to time food rewards in an operant interval timing task and reduced motivation to lever press for food reward in both the operant timing task and a progressive ratio schedule of reinforcement. The motivational deficit, but not the timing deficit, was rescued in adult mice by reversing D2 overexpression with doxycycline. These results suggest that early D2 overexpression alters the organization of interval timing circuits and confirms that striatal D2 signaling in the adult regulates motivational process. Moreover, overexpression of D2 under pathological conditions such as schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease could give rise to motivational and timing deficits.

Abstract
Arrestins and G proteins-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) regulate signaling and trafficking of G protein-coupled receptors. We investigated changes in the expression of arrestins and GRKs in the striatum of patients with Parkinson's disease without (PD) or with dementia (PDD) at postmortem using Western blotting and ribonuclease protection assay. Both PD and PDD groups had similar degree of dopamine depletion in all striatal regions. Arrestin proteins and mRNAs were increased in the PDD group throughout striatum. Protein and mRNA of GRK5, the major subtype in the human striatum, and GRK3 were also upregulated, whereas GRK2 and 6 were mostly unchanged. The PD group had lower concentration of arrestins and GRKs than the PDD group. There was no statistical link between the load of Alzheimer's pathology and the expression of these signaling proteins. Upregulation of arrestins and GRK in PDD may confer resistance to the therapeutic effects of levodopa often observed in these patients. In addition, increased arrestin and GRK concentrations may lead to dementia via perturbation of multiple signaling mechanisms.

Abstract
Familial essential tremor (ET), the most common inherited movement disorder, is generally transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. A genome-wide scan for ET revealed one major locus on chromosome 3q13. Here, we report that the Ser9Gly variant in the dopamine D(3) receptor gene (DRD3), localized on 3q13.3, is associated and cosegregates with familial ET in 23 out of 30 French families. Sequencing revealed no other nonsynonymous variants in the DRD3-coding sequence and in the first 871 bp of the 5' flanking region. Moreover, Gly-9 homozygous patients presented with more severe and/or earlier onset forms of the disease than heterozygotes. A replication study comparing 276 patients with ET and 184 normal controls confirmed the association of the Gly-9 variant with risk and age-at-onset of ET. In human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293-transfected cells, the Gly-9 variant did not differ from the Ser-9 variant with respect to glycosylation and to anterograde and retrograde trafficking, but dopamine had an affinity that was four to five times higher. With the Gly-9 variant, the dopamine-mediated cAMP response was increased, and the mitogen-associated protein kinase (MAPK) signal was prolonged, as compared with the Ser-9 variant. The gain-of-function produced by the Gly-9 variant may explain why drugs active against tremor in Parkinson's disease (PD) are usually not effective in the treatment of ET and suggests that DRD3 partial agonists or antagonists should be considered as novel therapeutic options for patients with ET.

Abstract
Since the introduction of dopamine replacement therapy using L-3,4-dihydroxyphenyalanine (L-DOPA) to treat Parkinson's disease and the recognition of the problems associated with L-DOPA use, numerous studies have investigated dopamine receptor regulation and function in Parkinson's disease. These studies have provided insight into the pathological process of the disorder and the molecular consequences of chronic dopaminergic treatment, but they have been less successful in identifying new pharmacological targets or treatment regimes that are as effective as L-DOPA at alleviating the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. This review will present a summary of the reported changes in dopamine receptor regulation and function that occur in Parkinson's disease and will discuss their contribution to the current pharmacological management of Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic, neurodegenerative disease with a 1% incidence in the population over 55 years of age. Movement impairments represent undoubtedly the hallmark of the disorder; however, extensive evidence implicates cognitive deficits as concomitant peculiar features. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) colocalizes with dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra, where dopaminergic cell bodies are located, and it has recently garnered attention as a molecule crucial for cognition, a function that is also compromised in PD patients. Thus, due to its colocalization with dopaminergic neurons and its role in cognition, BDNF might possess a dual role in PD, both as a neuroprotective molecule, since its inhibition leads to loss of nigral dopaminergic neurons, and as a neuromodulator, as its enhanced expression ameliorates cognitive processes. In this review, we discuss the mechanism of action of established as well as novel drugs for PD with a particular emphasis to those interfering with BDNF biosynthesis.

Abstract
Preferential neurodegeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the ventral substantia nigra of the midbrain is a hallmark of Parkinson's disease. The homeobox transcription factor Pitx3 is similarly and selectively expressed in the same neurons. Pitx3 deficiency in a natural mouse mutant, the aphakia mouse, was correlated with the loss of these neurons and with a deficit in locomotor activity. We now report that the locomotor deficit of aphakia mice is established by 40 days of age and that it can be rescued by injection of l-dopa. We further show that downstream striatal correlates of the midbrain neuronal losses in aphakia mice, as assessed by dopamine transporter binding and expression of dopamine receptors, enkephalin, dynorphin and neurotensin, are highly similar to neuroadaptive responses observed following rapid neurodegeneration induced by neurotoxin administration in adult animals or following the progressive neurodegenerative processes as seen in Parkinson patients. Taken collectively, these data support the idea that the aphakia mice represent a selective model of dopaminergic deficiency that closely resembles the midbrain and striatal neuropathology associated with Parkinson's disease, and this suggests that these mice are a good model to assess therapies for Parkinson's disease as well as to understand the susceptibility of these neurons to neurodegeneration.

Abstract
A series of N-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazine and N-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)piperazine analogs were prepared and their affinities for dopamine D(2), D(3), and D(4) receptors were measured in vitro. Binding studies were also conducted to determine if the compounds bound to sigma (sigma(1) and sigma(2)) and serotonin (5-HT(1A), 5-HT(2A), 5-HT(2B), 5-HT(2C), 5-HT(3), 5-HT(4), 5-HT(5), 5-HT(6), and 5-HT(7)) receptors. The results of the current study revealed a number of compounds (12b, 12c, 12e, and 12g) having a high affinity for D(3) (K(i) at D(3) receptors ranging from 0.3 to 0.9 nM) versus D(2) (K(i) at D(2) receptors ranging from 40 to 53 nM) receptors and a log P value indicating that they should readily cross the blood brain barrier (log P = 2.6-3.5). All of the compounds evaluated in this study had a high affinity for serotonin 5-HT(1A) receptors. These compounds may be useful as probes for studying the behavioral pharmacology of the dopamine D(3) receptor, as well as lead compounds for the development of radiotracers for studying D(3) receptor regulation in vivo with the functional imaging technique, positron emission tomography.

Abstract
Dysregulation of dopamine receptors (DARs) is believed to contribute to Parkinson disease (PD) pathology. G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) undergo desensitization via activation-dependent phosphorylation by G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) followed by arrestin binding. Using quantitative Western blotting, we detected profound differences in the expression of arrestin2 and GRKs among four experimental groups of nonhuman primates: (1) normal, (2) parkinsonian, (3) parkinsonian treated with levodopa without or (4) with dyskinesia. Arrestin2 and GRK6 expression was significantly elevated in the MPTP-lesioned group in most brain regions; GRK2 was increased in caudal caudate and internal globus pallidus. Neither levodopa-treated group differed significantly from control. The only dyskinesia-specific change was an elevation of GRK3 in the ventral striatum of the dyskinetic group. Changes in arrestin and GRK expression in the MPTP group were accompanied by enhanced ERK activation and elevated total ERK expression, which were also reversed by L-DOPA. The data suggest the involvement of arrestins and GRKs in Parkinson disease pathology and the effects of levodopa treatment.

Joyce JN, Woolsey C, Ryoo H, Borwege S, Hagner D. Low dose pramipexole is neuroprotective in the MPTP mouse model of Parkinson's disease, and downregulates the dopamine transporter via the D3 receptor. BMC Biol 2004; 2:22. [PMID: 15473914 PMCID: PMC524509 DOI: 10.1186/1741-7007-2-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 75] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2004] [Accepted: 10/11/2004] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Our aim was to determine if pramipexole, a D3 preferring agonist, effectively reduced dopamine neuron and fiber loss in the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) mouse model when given at intraperitoneal doses corresponding to clinical doses. We also determined whether subchronic treatment with pramipexole regulates dopamine transporter function, thereby reducing intracellular transport of the active metabolite of MPTP, 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+). METHODS Ten 12-month old C57BL/6 mice were treated with MPTP (or saline) twice per day at 20 mg/kg s.c. (4 injections over 48 h). Mice were pretreated for 3 days and during the 2-day MPTP regimen with pramipexole (0.1 mg/kg/day) or saline. Stereological quantification of dopamine neuron number and optical density measurement of dopamine fiber loss were carried out at 1 week after treatment, using immunostaining for dopamine transporter (DAT) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). Additional wild-type (WT) and D3 receptor knockout (KO) mice were treated for 5 days with pramipexole (0.1 mg/kg/day) or vehicle. The kinetics of [3H]MPP+ and [3H]DA uptake (Vmax and Km) were determined 24 h later; and at 24 h and 14 days dopamine transporter density was measured by quantitative autoradiography. RESULTS Pramipexole treatment completely antagonized the neurotoxic effects of MPTP, as measured by substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area TH-immunoreactive cell counts. MPTP- induced loss of striatal innervation, as measured by DAT-immunoreactivity, was partially prevented by pramipexole, but not with regard to TH-IR. Pramipexole also reduced DAT- immunoreactivity in non-MPTP treated mice. Subchronic treatment with pramipexole lowered the Vmax for [3H]DA and [3H]MPP+ uptake into striatal synaptosomes of WT mice. Pramipexole treatment lowered Vmax in WT but not D3 KO mice; however, D3 KO mice had lower Vmax for [3H]DA uptake. There was no change in DAT number in WT with pramipexole treatment or D3 KO mice at 24 h post-treatment, but there was a reduction in WT-pramipexole treated and not in D3 KO mice at 14 days post-treatment. CONCLUSION These results suggest that protection occurs at clinically suitable doses of pramipexole. Protection could be due to a reduced amount of MPP+ taken up into DA terminals via DAT. D3 receptor plays an important role in this regulation of transporter uptake and availability.
