A team of neurologists, bioengineers and radiologists has found that two neurons in the human brain that code for dopamine ...

New evidence suggests that prenatal exposure to tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) could increase the risk of opioid addiction later ...

People with chronic cocaine use can experience cognitive impairments and motor dysfunction that can be mitigated with antioxidant or anti-inflammatory agents; this supports the authors’ claim that ...

Unlike dopaminergic therapies, which primarily act by replenishing, enhancing, or mimicking dopamine, solengepras is designed to selectively address the indirect pathway by modulating the GPR6 ...
