abstract：BACKGROUND:Dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) is thought to be critical in regulating the dopaminergic pathway in the brain, which is known to be important in the etiology of schizophrenia. It is, therefore, not surprising that most antipsychotic medication acts on DRD2. DRD2 is widely expressed in the brain; levels are reduc...
