In the brain, dopamine functions as a neurotransmitter âa chemical released by nerve cells to send signals to other nerve cells. The brain includes several distinct dopamine systems, one of which plays a major role in reward-motivated behavior.
HOW DRUGS AFFECT NEUROTRANSMITTERS. Dopamine appeared very early in the course of evolution and is involved in many functions that are essential for survival of the organism, such as motricity, attentiveness, motivation, learning, and memorization.ut not all drugs increase dopamine levels in the brain in the same way. 1  Some substances imitate natural neuromediators and take their place on their receptors. 2  Other substances increase the secretion of natural neuromediators. 3  Still other substances block a natural neuromediator.
