Key Points

The aim is to provide an updated classification of dopamine receptors based on nomenclature standards.
Classification of dopamine receptors into D1-like (D1 and D5) and D2-like (D2, D3, and D4) families based on NC-IUPHAR guidelines.
Dopamine receptors are categorized as D1-like and D2-like families, with dopamine as the endogenous agonist.

Abstract

Dopamine receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Dopamine Receptors [363]) are commonly divided into D1-like (D1 and D5) and D2-like (D2, D3 and D4) families, where the endogenous agonist is dopamine.
