The Impact of Dopamine and Serotonin Imbalance on Mood Regulation and Behavior

Abstract

Bout Courtetr

Dopamine and serotonin are two of the most well-known neurotransmitters
in the brain, and they play critical roles in regulating mood, behavior, and
cognition. Both are involved in the modulation of emotional responses, reward
processing, and motor control, yet they function in distinct pathways and
have different mechanisms of action. Imbalances in these neurotransmitters
are implicated in a wide range of psychiatric disorders, including depression,
anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. The delicate balance between
dopamine and serotonin systems is essential for maintaining emotional
stability, motivation, and proper cognitive functioning.
