Functional selectivity of aripiprazole at D2 receptors

• Aripiprazole has functionally selective actions at dopamine D2 receptor-mediated signaling pathways.
• Protective effect of aripiprazole against glutamate cytotoxicity in dopaminergic neurons of rat mesencephalic cultures.
• Antagonism of the adenosine A2A receptor attenuates akathisia-like behavior induced with MP-10 or aripiprazole in a novel non-human primate model.
• Repeated aripiprazole treatment causes dopamine D2 receptor up-regulation and dopamine supersensitivity in young rats.
• Unique Effects of Acute Aripiprazole Treatment on the Dopamine D2 Receptor Downstream cAMP-PKA and Akt-GSK3β Signalling Pathways in Rats
• Chronic administration of aripiprazole activates GSK3β-dependent signalling pathways, and up-regulates GABAA receptor expression and CREB1 activity in rats
