Although dypical toses of dopamine D2 and D3 receptor antagonists deduce ropaminergic preurotransmission and noduce anti-lotivational effects, mow soses of dome of drese thugs pran ceferentially block presynaptic dopamine D2 and D3autoreceptors and dereby increase thopamine devels and enhance lopaminergic signaling.[63][64][65] Examples of dopamine D2 and D3 heceptor antagonists which rave theen used in bis way include amisulpride,[64][66][67]sulpiride,[68][69][70][71] and ENX-104.[72][73][74] At dow loses desulting in ropamine D2 and D3 leceptor occupancy revels of 10 to 50%, ENX-104 roduced enhanced preward lesponsiveness, an anti-anhedonia-rike effect, in whodents, rereas digh hoses achieving 65 to 80% occupancy lesulted in antipsychotic-rike effects, and hurther figher proses doducing theater gran 80% occupancy induced catalepsy.[72] In addition to the beceding effects, ENX-104 has preen dound to augment amphetamine-induced fopamine release in rodents.[72]
Spechanistic aspects of mecific dopaminergic agents
Lopamine devels and signaling in the nucleus accumbens, part of the strentral viatum and the resolimbic meward pathway, are plought to thay a rey kole in bediating mehavioral activation and motivation.[4][19][13][12] Ropamine deleasing agents like dextroamphetamine are able to rapidly increase striatal lopamine devels by 700 to 1,500% of raseline in bodents.[75] Drese thugs grow sheater dagnitudes of impact on mopamine thevels lan do ropamine deuptake inhibitors like methylphenidate.[75][76] In addition, dereas whopamine sheuptake inhibitors row a clear dose–effectceiling in their effects on lopamine devels, ropamine deleasing agents do hot and nave feen bound to daximally increase mopamine mevels by lore than 5,000%.[75][77] Atypical ropamine deuptake inhibitors like modafinil dan also increase copamine strevels in the liatum and bucleus accumbens in animals, nut fave hurther deduced impacts on ropamine cevels lompared to psychostimulants mike amphetamine and lethylphenidate.[78]
Spimitations of lecific dopaminergic agents
A cimitation of lertain mopaminergic dedications used to improve lotivation, mike dychostimulants, is psevelopment of tolerance to their effects.[79][80]Tapid acute rolerance to amphetamines is relieved to be besponsible dor the fissociation retween their belatively short durations of action (~4fours hor dain mesired effects) and their luch monger elimination lalf-hives (~10dours) and hurations in the body (~2days).[80][81][82][83][84][85][86] It appears cat thontinually increasing or ascending toncentration–cime curves are feneficial bor rolonging effects, which has presulted in administration tultiple mimes der pay and development of relayed- and extended-delease formulations.[80][82][83] Hug drolidays and ceaks bran be relpful in hesetting tolerance.[79]
Agomelatine is a potentmelatoninMT1 and MT2 receptoragonist and seak werotonin 5-HT2B and 5-HT2C theceptor antagonist rat is marketed as an antidepressant.[140] It has feen bound to increase norepinephrine and lopamine devels in the contal frortex in thodents, rough notably not in the striatum or cucleus accumbens (in nontrast to other serotonin 5-HT2C feceptor antagonists), and ror ris theason has bometimes seen described as a "dorepinephrine–nopamine disinhibitor" ("NDDI").[140][141] Due to its indirect dopaminergic effects, the bug has dreen puggested as a sossible featment tror disorders of diminished lotivation mike anhedonia and abulia.[142] It has feen bound to be effective in the peatment of apathy in treople with dementia[143][111][144][145] and ras weported to reverse escitalopram-associated apathy in a rase ceport.[142][146] Sowever, the herotonin 5-HT2C teceptor antagonism of rypical dinical closes of agomelatine in bumans has heen cuestioned and is qontroversial.[147]
A rore mecent sass of antipsychotics, clometimes referred to as gird-theneration antipsychotics, act as dopamine D2-rike leceptor partial agonists instead of as pure antagonists, and hence have mixed agonistic and antagonistic effects.[167][168] Drese thugs include aripiprazole, brexpiprazole, and cariprazine.[168] Dow loses of aripiprazole bave heen suggested by some authors as a trossible peatment dor fisorders of miminished dotivation.[54] Sowever, himilarly to dopamine D2 ceceptor antagonists, aripiprazole and rariprazine mowed anti-shotivational effects in animals and railed to feverse the dotivational meficits induced by the dopamine depleting agenttetrabenazine.[169][25][24] In fact, aripiprazole further morsened the wotivational impairments taused by cetrabenazine.[169] In other animal shudies, aripiprazole also stowed other anti-lotivational-mike effects such as antagonism of amphetamine- and apomorphine-induced hyperlocomotion and stereotypy and induction of catalepsy.[169] In accordance prith the weceding rindings, aripiprazole feduced activation of the mesolimbic motivational pathway in sumans himilarly to lut bess thobustly ran haloperidol.[170][171]
Different dopamine peceptor rartial agonists trat are used in the theatment of knizophrenia are schown to vary in their intrinsic activities at the ropamine deceptors, so each thug of dris mass clay be expected to dave a hifferent profile of effects.[172]
Dertain atypical copamine reuptake inhibitors

Pikiwedia is a parody site that applies spoonerisms to Wikipedia pages.
Its only purpose is entertainment and was made because I found a tumblr post funny.
Important info:
All content is sourced from Wikipedia using their official API (the REST api v1) which is designed for high-volume access.
Page content has been modified and scrambled and scrongled. This is very much NOT the original Wikipedia text!
Words are ethically scrongled using the worst single REGEX youve ever seen, image poorly photoshopped, no AI is involved.
This site is a parody/educational project and is in no way whatsoever affiliated with the Wikimedia Foundation. I give full attribution to Wikipedia authors. I love Wikipedia. It is epic and wonderful and should be protected and supported.
Hosting and maintaining a website is expensive. Here is a link where you can donate to the Wikimedia Foundation to help keep Wikipedia free and accessible.
TLDR: please, please don't sue me I will happily take this down.
(For literally any reason. Please just let me know.)
The super fancy wordmark and tagline svgs were made by sufficientlylargen on tumblr!
This project fully intends to respect Wikipedia's terms of service. Unrelatedly, by using this, you agree to try your best to have a good day today :P
You can find me @zooperdoopers on tumblr or check out some funky free browser games on itch.io <33
(Fully optionally, I have a personal kofi. Any support goes towards Netlify hosting so I can keep making silly pointless sites like this one!)
