How can you use “dopaminergic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Studies showing the expression of dopamine receptors in the anterior cingulate cortex [ 26 ] and that activation of mesocortical dopaminergic neurons via apomorphine enhances activity in the prefrontal cortex [ 27 28 ] suggest that dopaminergic modulation influences the efficiency of the executive attention network.
Dopamine stimulates both dopaminergic and adrenergic (both alpha and beta) receptors.
Other neuropathological studies show marked sever ity of HIV encephalitis in drug abusers [ 8] particularly involving loss of dopaminergic neurons [ 9].
It is also known that the biological actions of NKA, NKB and SP are mediated by three receptors, named neurokinin (NK)-1, NK-2 and NK-3 [ 2 ] . Thus, the tachykinins have been implicated in several physiological actions such as salivation, the regulation of smooth muscle contraction, depolarization of central neurons, hyperactivity, interaction with dopaminergic A-10 neurons mediating behavioral activation, regulation of blood pressure, and the transmission of the baroreceptor reflex [ 3 4 5 6 7 ] . In addition, a loss of tachykinin-containing neurons has been described in neurodegenerative diseases [ 8 ] , suggesting that the decrease in the amount of tachykinins could be involved in these and other diseases [ 9 10 ] .
Classical neurotransmitter receptors such as muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR), adrenergic, dopaminergic, serotoninergic as well as neuropeptide receptors belong to this family ( 1).
