PARKINSONS
DISEASE
AND schizophrenia
each have abnormal
dopamine
function
in addition
to many other
disabling
features.
For example,
the loss of midbrain
dopamine
neurons
(1) results in the rigidity and tremor
of patients
with Parkinsons
disease,
these signs and
symptoms
being
alleviated
by replacement
therapy
with L-dopa1
(2). On the other hand,
schizophrenia,
with its disordered
thinking
patterns,
hallucinations,
and delusions,
suggests
a state of hyperdopamine
activity, as these symptoms
are usually alleviated
by antipsychotic
drugs that specifically
block dopamine
D2
receptors
(3).
In the early stages of both diseases,
the patients
are
supersensitive
to dopamine-mimetic
medications,
with
Parkinson
patients

becoming
worse (see references
in refs 5 and 6). Parkinson
patients
who are overmedicated
with L-dopa also have psychotic
symptoms,
including
hallucinations,
which go away when the dose
of L-dopa is lowered.
These clinical supersensitivities
to dopamine
in both
types of patients
may be attributed
to the elevated
densities of dopamine
D2 receptors
found
in studies
of
postmortem
tissue. The purpose of this review is to examine
the abnormalities
of dopamine
receptors
and
transporters
that may account
for some of the clinical
features.
DOPAMINE
DISEASE
TRANSPORTER
IN
PARKINSONS
Although
the number
of doparnine-containing
cell bodies in the Parkinson
midbrain
(substantia
nigra)
is
reduced
by 60-86%
of age-matched
control tissues (1),
the loss of dopamine
in the nerve terminals
in the striaturn is even greater,
amounting
to a 90-99%
loss in the
putamen
(2, 7-9) and a 58-95%
loss in the caudate
nucleus
(2, 7-9).
Until now it has been puzzling
that the dopamine
transporter,
which is located
on the nerve terminals,
falls by only 22-60%,
whereas
the dopamine
content
drops by more than 90%. For example,
Fig. 1 (top) IIlustrates
that the dopamine
transporter,
as labeled
by
[11C]nomifensine,
was 22%
below
control;
similar
reductions
of 22-60%
in the striatal dopamine
transporter
are also shown
in Fig.
1 (top)
for either
[3H]GBR
12935 or [3H]cocaine.
These
reductions,
however,
do not correspond
to the reductions
of
95-99%
in the dopamine
content
of postmortem
Parkinsons diseased
putamen
(2).
This discrepancy
has recently been resolved by H. B.
Niznik,
E. L. Fogel, F. F. Fassos, and P. Seeman
(unpublished
results),
who found that the dopamine
transport sites (defined as [3H]GBR

absent in the Parkinson putamen
after the tissue had been partly purified
by using a wheat-germ

An example
is shown in Fig. 2 (top) which illustrates
that [3H]GBR
12935 binds to two sites, as revealed
by the inhibition
of binding
by mazindol.
That is, one component
of
[3H]GBR
binding
was inhibited
by about
30 nM
mazindol,
whereas
the
other
component
(the
piperazine-binding
site) was inhibited
by approximately
50,000 nM mazindol.
The top of Fig. 2 indicates that
[3H]GBR
12935 binds
to approximately
equal amounts
of these two sites in the human
putamen. [The piperazine-binding
site has recently
been
identified
as a P450-like
protein (14), and therefore

An example
of the absence
of the dopamine
transporter in Parkinsons
disease is seen in Fig. 3, where the
transporter
has been selectively
labeled with [251]FAPP
(ref. 15; H. B. Niznik
et al., unpublished
results).
Figure
3 illustrates
the
covalent
attachment
of
[1251]FAPP to tissue incubated
with [1251]FAPP and exposed
to light.
The
attached
[251]FAPP
migrates
together
with the dopamine
transporter
protein
and
identifies
the apparent
molecular
weight of the transporter
as approximately
68,000.
(Although
there are
two dark bands in each lane of the gel, only the band
at 68,000 was specifically
displaced
by 1 tM mazindol.)
The 68,000 band was present
in the human
putamen
from control
brain,
Alzheimer-diseased
brain,
and
schizophrenia
brain, but was completely
absent in the
Parkinsons
diseased
brain.
DOPAMINE
DISEASE
RECEPTORS
IN PARKINSONS
Consistent
with the degeneration
and loss of dopamine
neurons
in Parkinsons
disease,
the density
of postsynaptic
dopamine
receptors
increases
in association
with the developing
denervation
dopamine
supersensitivity of the patient
(or the animal or the brain striatal
tissue).
There
are currently
two major classes of dopamine
receptors:
Dl and D2 (see refs in ref. 6). Dl is the dopamine receptor
that stimulates
adenylate
cyclase and is
selectively
labeled by [3H]SCH
23390. D2 is the dopamine receptor
that inhibits
adenylate
cyclase and is
selectively
blocked
and labeled
by [3H]antipsychotic
drugs
such as [3H]spiperone,
[3H]haloperidol,
and
[3H]raclopride.

The density
of D2 receptors
is consistently
elevated
in postmortem
striatal tissues (Fig. 4, bottom).
Although
Mackay
et al. (50) indicated
that the elevated
D2 density is induced entirely by the administration
of neuroleptic drugs during
the patients lifetime,
marked
D2 elevations have been found by Joyce et al. (33) and by T. J.
Crows group (34) in tissues from schizophrenic
patients
who had never taken neuroleptics.
Furthermore,
although
Kornhuber
et al. (40) reported
that postmortem
D2 densities were not elevated in tissues from patients
who had
not received
neuroleptics
for 10 days or more before
death, their findings are not supported
by others (33, 36,
48, 49), as shown in Fig. 4.
The long-term
administration
of neuroleptics
to patients increases
the density of D2 dopamine
receptors
in
postmortem
human
tissues by only 25%. For example,
the top panel of Fig. 5 indicates
that the mode for the
D2 density in the striata from 122 different
individuals
was 12.9 pmol of receptor per gram of original tissue (17).
Virtually
the same value (13.4 pmol/g) was found in the
tissues from Alzheimer
patients
who had not received
any neuroleptics
during
their lifetime
(Fig. 5, third
panel). Those Alzheimer
patients who received neuroleptics premortem
subsequently
revealed a D2 density that
was approximately
25% higher (16.6 pmol/g)
than the
nonneuroleptic
Alzheimer
tissues (compare
third and
fourth panels in Fig. 5).
In schizophrenia,
however,
at least half of the brain
striata revealed
D2 densities
between
22 and 40 pmol/g
(Fig. 5, second panel from top), values that were double
to triple
those measured
in control
tissues (17). Thus,
these high D2 densities
cannot be accounted
for by the
neuroleptic-induced
increase of 25% in D2 seen patients
with Alzheimers
disease or Huntingtons
disease (results
not shown; see ref. 17). (Huntingtons
diseased
patients
take neuroleptic
doses equivalent
to those taken
by
schizophrenic
patients).
PET measurements
of D2 in drug-free
(52-54)
and
drug-naive
(51, 55) patients
are still unclear. Statistically
significant
elevations
in D2 were found in 10 patients
by
Wong et al. using PET (55), in 12 patients
by Crawley
et al. using SPECT
(53), and in 6 subchronic
patients
by Martinot
et al. using PET (52, 53). However,
Martinot et al. (52, 53) did not find a significant
elevation
in
the striatum/cerebellum
ratio when
averaging
eight
chronic
patients.

The selective
block of D2 by antipsychotic
drugs, and
the elevated
D2 densities
in drug-free
and drug-naive
schizophrenic
tissues, suggest that the protein structure
of D2 in schizophrenic
patients
may be abnormal.
This
receptor
abnormality
need not be constant,
because
schizophrenia
is a disease that waxes and wanes during
its natural
course.
It is possible,
for example,
that the
two forms of D2 (see references
in refs 57 and 58), as
well as additional
variants yet to be found, may alter during the psychotic
illness.
The molecular
weight of D2 is approximately
44,000
after the glycocalyx
has been removed
from the receptor, as noted in Fig. 6. Further
enzymatic
digestion
of
the 44,000 protein
by papain
and subsequent
gel electrophoresis
in a second direction
(shown in Fig. 6) revealed a unique peptide fragment
in tissues with high D2
density
from schizophrenic
subjects.
Such results were
not seen in tissues digested
with other enzymes,
such as
protease
from Staphylococcus aureus (N. H. Bzowej, H. B.
Niznik,
and P. Seeman,
unpublished
results). The data
in Fig. 6 were obtained
from D2 receptors
that were first
photoaffinity-labeled
by [125I]azidoNAPS.
Therefore,
the
data shown in Fig. 6 suggest that there may be an abnormal
structure
of D2 in schizophrenia
that warrants
an examination
of the D2 gene.
Finally, there is evidence
for an abnormal
or reduced
link between
Dl and D2 in schizophrenia
(41). The
Dl-D2 link is tested as follows. The addition
of 400 nM
dopamine
in vitro reduces
the apparent
D2 density, as
labeled by [3Hjraclopride
(41). This is because dopamine
occupies
the high-affinity
state of D2 very tightly with
a dissociation
constant
of 5 nM, as mentioned
previously. The attached
dopamine
added at the high concentration
of 400
nM
prevents
some
of the
[3H]raclopride
from occupying
D2, despite a dissociation constant
of 2 nM for [3Hjraclopride
for the D2
