A reduction of dopamine in the brain is associated with the development of Parkinson's disease. Chemical formula: C8H11NO2.-www.dictionary.com-Yes, it is a hormone which, by definition, is released by endocrine cells directly into the bloodstream, to have an effect elsewhere in the body. Dopamine is release by the hypothalamus to inhibit the release of prolactin in the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
