多巴胺是中枢神经系统内很重要的神经递质,发挥很多生理功能,如认知活动和运动功能的调控。对帕金森病患者早期临床研究表明,脑内多巴胺水平也与嗅觉功能有关。嗅球是嗅觉系统中很重要的组成部分。近年来对多巴胺在嗅球嗅觉信息处理的作用多有研究。文中就多巴胺在嗅球中的分布及其作用进行综述。 Dopamine is a very important neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and exerts many physiological functions, such as the regulation of cognitive and motor functions. Early clinical studies of patients with Parkinson’s disease show that dopamine levels in the brain are also associated with olfactory function. The olfactory bulb is a very important part of the olfactory system. In recent years, the role of dopamine in olfactory bulb olfactory information processing more than research. The distribution and the role of dopamine in the olfactory bulb are reviewed in this paper.
