Abstract
The five subtypes of dopaminergic receptors exhibit different transduction, cerebral localization, regulation, pharmacological, and physiological roles, explaining their multiple pathophysiological implications in different neuropsychiatric conditions which result, at least in part from anomalous dopaminergic neurotransmission: Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, addiction, migraine, mode disorders, Gilles de la Tourette disease, hyperactivity syndrome with attention deficit. The wide range of pharmacological implications explains the diversity of the therapeutic approaches perspectives for development of new drugs for these neuropsychiatric conditions.
