Recent studies have described a left lateralized striatal asymmetry of D2 dopamine receptors in male patients with schizophrenia. To replicate this finding and to explore its potential functional consequences, we investigated the D2 dopamine receptor system in 23 drug-naive patients

[18F]Benperidol ([18F]BP), a positron-emitting analogue of the dopaminergic D2 antagonist benperidol, was evaluated as a radiopharmaceutical for use with positron emission tomography (PET). PET imaging of baboons after i.v. injection of [18F]BP indicated that the radiofluorinated ligand rapidly localized in

In this study two butyrophenones, droperidol and benperidol were voltammetrically investigated using platinum and specially activated glass carbon electrodes. The behaviours of the substance were investigated in various electrolyte solutions having different pH values and by different scan rates. As

Animal and post mortem studies indicate that neuroleptic therapy may induce D2-dopamine receptor upregulation in the basal ganglia. To address this phenomenon in a clinical study, we investigated the D2-dopamine receptor binding in 15 DSM-III-R schizophrenics in the drug-naive state
