Presynaptic Receptors

Neurotransmitter receptors located on or near presynaptic terminals or varicosities. Presynaptic receptors which bind transmitter molecules released by the terminal itself are termed AUTORECEPTORS.
Also Known As:

06/01/1996 - "The enhancement of DA function produced by its selective presynaptic receptor DA blockade may account for the clinical efficacy of amisulpride against negative symptoms of schizophrenia."
09/18/2013 - "Thus, presynaptic receptors and spontaneous release may contribute to postsynaptic mechanisms of plasticity in brain regions involved in reward and memory, and could play roles in disorders that affect plasticity in those regions, including addiction, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). "

12/01/1982 - "If low doses of pergolide can reduce dopaminergic transmission by activating presynaptic receptors that control dopamine release, then this action might be therapeutically useful in treating schizophrenia without causing tardive dyskinesia or in the treatment of tardive dyskinesia. "
11/01/2004 - "At the 8th World Congress on Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, held August 1-6, 2004, in Queensland, Australia, there were late-breaking news symposia on presynaptic receptors as targets in the treatment of schizophrenia; cyclooxygenase inhibition, present and future; adiposity, drug treatment and causes; G-protein-coupled receptors, important new targets; osteoporosis, causes, prevention and cures; ischemic stroke; drugs and arrhythmias, causes and cures; and the pharmacology of cardiac protection.
