Abstract
Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter
implicated in the regulation of mood, motivation and movement.
Here, we have reviewed recent data suggesting that dopamine, in
addition to being a neurotransmitter, also plays a role in the
regulation of endogenous neurogenesis in the adult mammalian
brain. In addition, we approach a highly controversial
question: can the adult human brain use endogenous neurogenesis
to replace the dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra that
are lost in Parkinson’s disease?
