The role of dopamine in reward and pleasure behaviour – review of data from preclinical research

Bressan, R. A., Crippa, J. A.·2005·Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica

Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this article is to review some of the basic aspects of the dopaminergic system and its role in reward and pleasure behaviour. We also discuss the association between dopamine and unpleasant symptoms that are commonly found in neuropsychiatric disorders and may also be side‐effects of neuroleptic drugs. Method: A computer‐based search of the literature, augmented by extensive bibliography‐guided article reviews, were used to find basic information on the dopamine and the reward systems, and symptoms such as dysphoria, anhedonia and depression. Results: Central dopaminergic neurotransmission is complex, having multiple actions at each level of the mesocorticolimbic reward pathway. The role of dopamine in the reward process was classically associated with the ability to experience pleasure; recent data suggest a more motivational role. Dysfunction of the dopamine transmission in the reward circuit is associated with symptoms such as anhedonia, apathy and dysphoria found in several neuropsychiatric disorders, including Parkinson's disease, depression, drug addiction, and neuroleptic‐induced dysphoria. Conclusion: Viewing the dysfunctions of the reward pathways within a broader spectrum and exploring its complex relations with the dopaminergic transmission may help understand the pathophysiology of these neuropsychiatric disorders and lead to a rational development of novel treatments.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
