What are Neurotransmitters?
Neurotransmitters are naturally occurring chemical substances found in the brain which are used to transfer messages between different brain cells.
Neurotransmitters relay, amplify and modulate signals from one brain cell (Neuron) to another and work in unison to balance the body’s motor co-ordination, pain mechanisms, behaviour, blood flow and many other biochemical and physiologic properties.
Dopamine, epinephrine (also known as adrenaline), norepinephrine (also known as noradrenaline) and serotonin are some of the major neurotransmitters implicated in AADC deficiency.
