D 5 receptor is a subtype of the dopamine receptor that has a 10-fold higher affinity for dopamine than the D 1 subtype. [6] The D 5 subtype is a G-protein coupled receptor, which promotes synthesis of cAMP by adenylyl cyclase via activation of Gα s/olf family of G proteins. [7] [8] Both D 5 and D 1 subtypes activate adenylyl cyclase.
To date, most of the known ligands are based on dihydrexidine or the prototypical benzazepine partial agonist SKF-38393 (one derivative being the prototypical antagonist SCH-23390). [12] D 1 receptor has a high degree of structural homology to another dopamine receptor, D 5 , and they both bind similar drugs. [ 13 ]
The relative amount of DA receptors is in the following order: D1 > D2 > D3 > D5 > D4. [6] D 1-2 receptor subtypes are found at 10–100 times the levels of the D 3-5 subtypes. [ 7 ]
The D 1-like receptors are a subfamily of dopamine receptors that bind the endogenous neurotransmitter dopamine. [1] The D 1-like subfamily consists of two G protein–coupled receptors that are coupled to G s and mediate excitatory neurotransmission, of which include D 1 and D 5. [2]
Abnormal dopamine receptor signaling and dopaminergic nerve function is implicated in several neuropsychiatric disorders. [1] Dopamine receptors are therefore common drug targets. Dopamine receptors activate different effectors through not only G-protein coupling, but also signaling through different protein (dopamine receptor-interacting ...
Tavapadon (developmental code names CVL-751, PF-06649751) is a dopamine receptor agonist which is under development for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. [2] [3] [4] It is under development by Cerevel Therapeutics, which acquired tavapadon from Pfizer in 2018. [2]

Ecopipam (development codes SCH-39166, EBS-101, and PSYRX-101) is a dopamine antagonist which is under development for the treatment of Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, Tourette syndrome, speech disorders, and restless legs syndrome. [1] It is taken by mouth. [2] Ecopipam acts as a selective dopamine D 1 and D 5 receptor antagonist. [1]
