The nucleus accumbens (Acb) shell and caudate-putamen nucleus (CPu) are respectively implicated in the motivational and motor effects of dopamine, which are mediated in part through dopamine D₂-like receptors (D₂Rs) and modulated by activation of the cannabinoid-1 receptor (CB₁R). The dopamine D(₂/D3) receptor agonist, quinpirole elicits internalization of D₂Rs in isolated cells; however, dendritic and axonal targeting of D₂Rs may be highly influenced by circuit-dependent changes in vivo and potentially influenced by endogenous CB₁R activation.
