  2. Dopamine (medication) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_(medication)

    It is unclear if dopamine is safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. [4] At low doses dopamine mainly triggers dopamine receptors and β1-adrenergic receptors while at high doses it works via α-adrenergic receptors. [4] Dopamine was first synthesized in a laboratory in 1910 by George Barger and James Ewens in England. [8]

  3. Dopamine therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_therapy

    Dopamine therapy is the regulation of levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine through the use of either agonists, or antagonists; and has been used in the treatment of disorders characterized by a dopamine imbalance. Dopamine replacement therapy (DRT) is an effective treatment for patients with decreased levels of dopamine.

  4. Dopamine reuptake inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_reuptake_inhibitor

    A dopamine reuptake inhibitor (DRI) is a class of drug which acts as a reuptake inhibitor of the monoamine neurotransmitter dopamine by blocking the action of the dopamine transporter (DAT). Reuptake inhibition is achieved when extracellular dopamine not absorbed by the postsynaptic neuron is blocked from re-entering the presynaptic neuron.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_agonist

    The dopamine receptors are members of the G protein-coupled receptors superfamily with seven transmembrane domains. Dopamine receptors have five subtypes, D 1 through D 5, the subtypes can be divided into two subclasses due to their mechanism of action on adenylate cyclase enzyme, D 1-like receptors (D 1 and D 5) and D 2-like receptors (D 2, D ...

  7. Aging brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aging_brain

    The motor functions of dopamine are linked to a separate pathway, with cell bodies in the substantia nigra that manufacture and release dopamine into the striatum. Dopamine and serotonin functions and pathways. In addition to the structural changes that the brain incurs with age, the aging process also entails a broad range of biochemical changes.

  8. Dopamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine

    Dopamine is found in blood plasma at levels comparable to those of epinephrine, but in humans, over 95% of the dopamine in the plasma is in the form of dopamine sulfate, a conjugate produced by the enzyme sulfotransferase 1A3/1A4 acting on free dopamine. [27] The bulk of this dopamine sulfate is produced in the mesenteric organs. [27]
