Research Abstract |
Effects of antipsychotic drugs have been considered to be mediated by modulation of postsynaptic dopamine D2 receptors. To investigate the effects of antagonist or partial agonist antipsychotics on presynaptic functions of dopaminergic neurotransmission, changes in dopamine synthesis capacity by antipsychotics, risperidone or aripiprazole, were measured by PET in healthy men. For both antipsychotics, significant negative correlations were observed between the baseline dopamine synthesis capacity and the changes in dopamine synthesis capacity by antipsychotics, indicating that these antipsychotics can be assumed to stabilize the dopamine synthesis capacity.
