The possible role of glutamatergic pathways in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia has been highlighted in recent years. Specifically, there has been talk of possible glutamatergic hyperfunction. How would this hyperfunction affect the dopaminergic pathways?
Discuss what we know about both of the two main hypotheses (potential targets) for the origin of schizophrenia. LTP is the part of the learning process by which our synapses are strengthened. Using the example of hippocampal circuitry (LP can happen elsewhere in the brain), 1) draw and label the hippocampal circuitry, indicating the direction of the signaling, 2) describe the conditions required for LTP, and 3) draw a graph to show how EPSP magnitude is affected and explain what the long term implications are.
Typical antipsychotic drugs exert their therapeutic effects on the positive symptoms of schizophrenia by which of the following mechanisms? Question 49 options: a) Blocking the reuptake of dopamine, increasing the amount of dopamine in the synapse b) Stimulating dopamine D1 receptors in the prefrontal cortex c) Binding to dopamine D2 receptors and inhibiting dopamine signalling d) Decreasing the production of dopamine in the basal ganglia
