Effect of antipsychotic drugs on gene expression in the prefrontal cortex and nucleus accumbens in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR)
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-08-01)Antipsychotic drugs (APDs) are the standard treatment for schizophrenia. the therapeutic effect of these drugs is dependent upon the dopaminergic D2 blockade, but they also modulate other neurotransmitter pathways. the ...
