How the Dopaminergic Pathways is Key to Motivation & Reward - …
Three dopamine pathways and their related cognitive processes. Most of your dopamine is generated deep in the midbrain, and it is released in many different areas across the brain. These areas are largely responsible for behaviors associated with learning, habit formation, and addiction. While the reward pathways

Plasticity The brain’s ability to recover from brain/nerve damage by possibly creating new pathways for previous messages Action potential This allows messages to flow from neuron to neuron as an electrical charge is created when positively charged sodium ions flow into a neuron and flows out as positively charged potassium charges.

in contrast glutamate neurons that connect to dopamine neurons involved in the limbic system have a GABA interneuron inbetween, GABA inhibit the release of dopamine, acting as a brake on dopamine pathways, if this brake is removed by for example less glutamatergic activity excess dopamine can contribute to the experience of positive symptoms of ...
