  2. Dopaminergic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopaminergic

    Dopaminergic means "related to dopamine " (literally, "working on dopamine"), dopamine being a common neurotransmitter. [ 1] Dopaminergic substances or actions increase dopamine-related activity in the brain. Dopaminergic brain pathways facilitate dopamine-related activity. For example, certain proteins such as the dopamine transporter (DAT ...

  3. Dopamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine

    Dopamine ( DA, a contraction of 3,4- d ihydr o xy p henethyl amine) is a neuromodulatory molecule that plays several important roles in cells. It is an organic chemical of the catecholamine and phenethylamine families. Dopamine constitutes about 80% of the catecholamine content in the brain.

  4. Dopaminergic pathways - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopaminergic_pathways

    Dopaminergic pathways ( dopamine pathways, dopaminergic projections) in the human brain are involved in both physiological and behavioral processes including movement, cognition, executive functions, reward, motivation, and neuroendocrine control. [ 1] Each pathway is a set of projection neurons, consisting of individual dopaminergic neurons.

  5. Dopamine receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_receptor

    Dopamine. Dopamine receptors are a class of G protein-coupled receptors that are prominent in the vertebrate central nervous system (CNS). Dopamine receptors activate different effectors through not only G-protein coupling, but also signaling through different protein (dopamine receptor-interacting proteins) interactions. [ 1] The ...

  6. List of dopaminergic drugs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dopaminergic_drugs

    This is a list of dopaminergic drugs. These are pharmaceutical drugs , naturally occurring compounds and other chemicals that influence the function of the neurotransmitter dopamine . Receptor ligands

  7. Dopamine agonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_agonist

    A dopamine agonist is a compound that activates dopamine receptors. There are two families of dopamine receptors, D 1 -like and D 2 -like. They are all G protein-coupled receptors. D 1 - and D 5 -receptors belong to the D 1 -like family and the D 2 -like family includes D 2, D 3 and D 4 receptors. [1]

  8. Dopamine dysregulation syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_dysregulation...

    Dopamine dysregulation syndrome ( DDS) is a dysfunction of the reward system observed in some individuals taking dopaminergic medications for an extended length of time. It typically occurs in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) who have taken dopamine agonist medications for an extended period of time. It is characterized by problems such as ...

  9. Dopaminergic cell groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopaminergic_cell_groups

    Dopaminergic cell groups, DA cell groups, or dopaminergic nuclei are collections of neurons in the central nervous system that synthesize the neurotransmitter dopamine. [1] In the 1960s, dopaminergic neurons or dopamine neurons were first identified and named by Annica Dahlström and Kjell Fuxe , who used histochemical fluorescence . [ 2 ]
