Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 6th Annual National Conference (2001)

Statistics suggest that Latino youths are at risk for academic underachievement and withdrawal.

In response to these needs, the Latino Research Initiative (LRI), a collaborative group with members from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) and the Hispanic Community Center (HCC) created the Latino Achievement Mentoring Program (LAMP).

Neuropharmacology Of Dopamine Receptors : Implications In Neuropsychiatric Diseases, Frank I. Tarazi Oct 2001

Neuropharmacology Of Dopamine Receptors : Implications In Neuropsychiatric Diseases, Frank I. Tarazi

Sultan Qaboos University Medical Journal

There has been an extraordinary recent accumulation of information concerning the neurobiology and neuropharmacology of dopamine (DA) receptors in the mammalian central nervous system. Many new DA molecular entities have been cloned, their gene, peptide sequences and structures have been identified, their anatomical distributions in the mammalian brain described, and their pharmacology characterized. Progress has been made toward developing selective ligands and drug-candidates for different DA receptors. The new discoveries have greatly stimulated preclinical and clinical studies to explore the neuropharmacology of DA receptors and their implications in the neuropathophysiology of different neuropsychiatric diseases including schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease and attention- …
