Striatal Dopamine D2/D3Receptors Mediate Response Inhibition and Related Activity in Frontostriatal Neural Circuitry in Humans

Abstract: Impulsive behavior is thought to reflect a trait-like characteristic that can have broad consequences for an individual’s success and well-being, but its neurobiological basis remains elusive. Although striatal dopamine D2-like receptors have been linked with impulsive behavior and behavioral inhibition in rodents, a role for D2-like receptor function in frontostriatal circuits mediating inhibitory control in humans has not been shown. We investigated this role in a study of healthy research participants who u… Show more

“…It could therefore be hypothesized that processes relating to response inhibition are particularly vulnerable to stress in key stages of development. Performance on inhibitory control tests has been associated with both D2 receptor availability and childhood trauma in previous studies (Ghahremani et al., 2012; Marshall et al., 2016) but the more precise effect of stress on the functioning of cortico‐striatal circuitry and on cognitive function remains to be elucidated.…”

“…For example, striatal D2/3 receptor availability is linked to trait impulsivity and behavioral disinhibition (Dalley et al, 2007;Ghahremani et al, 2012), and low striatal D2/3 levels are associated with elevated cocaine self-administration (Caine et al, 2002;Morgan et al, 2002;Nader et al, 2006). Furthermore, recent data from our laboratory show that low levels of striatal D2 receptor mRNA expression are associated with elevated risk taking in adult rats .…”

“…The interaction of the supplementary motor area with the subcortical brain and brain stem nuclei then completes the inhibitory control process (39). The forehead-striatal loop, which participates in motion control and response inhibition, is of particular importance (40)(41)(42)(43)(44). The GO/NO-GO task is expected to trigger cognitive as well as behavioral inhibition.…”
