Did you know the attention, memory, and motivation challenges associated with ADHD are rooted in biology? Learn how the brain ...

Among these, for example, the phenothiozines (which are antipsychotic dopamine receptor antagonists) showed clear connectivity and structure-function relationships despite the fact that none of ...

While sugar is not classified as a drug in the traditional sense, scientific evidence suggests that its effects on the brain's reward system and dopamine receptors are similar to those of ...

Dopamine is an inotropic agent that has vasodilatory effects at low doses. It is a common belief that low-dose dopamine may be helpful in the prevention and treatment of acute renal failure and is ...

These glial products may thereby enhance neuronal excitability and potentiate drug-induced changes at the neuronal sites of action (e.g. dopamine transporter, opioid receptors, etc.) throughout the ...

Stimulating dopamine-producing brain cells wirelessly with gold nanoparticles has proven effective at treating mice with ...
