A neurotransmitter is a chemical or peptide in synapses, usually between neurons, a neuron and muscle or a neuron and other organ. The neurotransmitter transmits information to and from and within the brain. When a neurotransmitter is released from the presynaptic cell in response to depolarization of the cell by an action potential, it diffuses across the synaptic cleft and binds a receptor or ligand-gated ion channel on the postsynaptic cell. Binding on the postsynaptic cell alters the resting potential of the postsynaptic cell in either an inhibitory or excitatory manner, making the cell less susceptible or more susceptible (respectively) to an action potential. Examples include, but are not limited to, acetylcholine, GABA, noradrenaline, serotonin and dopamine.
affecting neurotransmitter release, blocking neurotransmitter reuptake, or binding to neurotransmitter receptors. This alters the signaling between neurons and can have various effects on mood, behavior, and other physiological processes.
In the nervous system, permissive action refers to one neurotransmitter enhancing the effect of another neurotransmitter. This occurs when one neurotransmitter prepares receptors to be more responsive to another neurotransmitter, allowing for a more amplified response.
Yes, Dopamine is an excitatory neurotransmitter. It is important in motivation and pleasure perception in humans.
The transport mechanism for a neurotransmitter across the synaptic cleft is called exocytosis. During exocytosis, neurotransmitter-filled vesicles fuse with the presynaptic membrane, releasing the neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft where it can then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane.

No, dopamine is not an inhibitory neurotransmitter. It is a type of monoamine neurotransmitter that acts as both an excitatory and modulatory neurotransmitter in the brain.
