Dopamine synthesized in the midbrain is a neurotransmitter and a hormone. It transmits nerve signals across a synapse. It also functions as a mediator hormone in sending messages throughout the body. Therefore its role is the brain’s ability to send certain nerve signals. These signals include motivation, learning, movement, memory etc.
Interpretation: Dopamine deficiency may result in Parkinson’s Disease and/or schizophrenia and addiction. It also leads to depression, remembering pauses, restless leg syndrome, shaking hands, coordination loss, pleasure loss.
