Dopamine is a catecholamine neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in the brain's reward system, motor control, and various physiological functions. It acts as a chemical messenger, transmitting signals between nerve cells. Dopamine is involved in movement, motivation, mood, sleep, and learning. It also influences blood flow, digestion, and kidney function. Dopamine deficiency is associated with Parkinson's disease, while an excess can contribute to schizophrenia.
Used to treat low blood pressure, low heart rate, and poor blood flow to vital organs.
