Dopamine, which is a
monoamine neurotransmitter, plays a key role in the functioning of the Limbic System and increases our general level of arousal and our goal-directed behaviour.
Serotonin or 5-hydroxytriptamine is a
monoamine neurotransmitter that is primarily found in the gastrointestinal tract, platelets and central nervous system of the human body.
The monoamine levels were assessed by comparing the reference standard and respective peak area and elution time of the samples using a calibration curve for each
monoamine neurotransmitter.
In summary, the inflammatory process and neuroendocrine, neurotrophic, nerve regeneration,
monoamine neurotransmitter synthesis transport and release process may have a wide range of interactions.
Serious neurologic, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal harm has previously been reported following methamphetamine use, probably through the downstream effects of
monoamine neurotransmitter release [1, 4].
Recent work has begun to shed light on the influence of the
monoamine neurotransmitter dopamine.
An alteration in the precursor amino acids has the potential to impact
monoamine neurotransmitter synthesis in the brain.
Our findings represent the first identification of a residue in
monoamine neurotransmitter transporters whose substitution results in the partial or complete uncoupling of ion binding from substrate translocation and may lead to a fundamental understanding as to how the drug "ecstasy" and the interacting protein syntaxin 1A modulate SERT function.
Despite these drawbacks, CSF
monoamine neurotransmitter metabolite analysis has become fairly routine in many research laboratories and in specialized clinical laboratories that search for changes that might indicate problems in this area of neurochemistry.
For example,
monoamine neurotransmitter medications are currently under development and are designed to correct an imbalance of monoamines (chemicals used by brain cells to communicate); research suggests that monoamines play a major role in depression.
Like antidepressants, these drugs also primarily affect the
monoamine neurotransmitter systems, especially the serotonin and norepinephrine systems, known to be critically involved in the regulation of mood, arousal, and behavior.

monoamine neurotransmitter disease and of neurotoxins according to the Bundle Damage Theory.
