Role of dopamine receptors in ADHD: a systematic meta-analysis.

Molecular neurobiology - 1 Jun 2012

Wu Jing, Xiao Haifan, Sun Hongjuan, Zou Li, Zhu Ling-Qiang

Abstract excerpt

The dopaminergic system plays a pivotal role in the central nervous system via its five diverse receptors (D1-D5). Dysfunction of dopaminergic system is implicated in many neuropsychological diseases, including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a common mental disorder that prevalent in childhood. Understanding the relationship of five different dopamine (DA) receptors with ADHD will help us to...
