H1N1 flu, dopamine receptors, and autoimmune diseases

H1 N1 swine flu likely uses D2 dopamine receptors

Alopecia (flu cross-targets with a fungal infection)

this is a temporary form of alopecia

In narcolepsy the dopamine function is disturbed but the statistical numbers of receptors are unchanged

D1 : D5

D2: D3 :D4

behavior changes and dopamine receptors: repetitive D2
