Dopamine.
Dopamine was a neurotransmitter, a chemical substance that helped cells transmit impulses.
This secretion within the brain was connected to human desire and sensation. It conveyed messages of excitement and happiness. In addition, dopamine was also linked to all kinds of addictive behaviors.
Dopamine had β-receptor agonist effects and also a certain degree of α-receptor agonist effects. It could strengthen myocardial contractions, increase cardiac output, and had only a mild effect on accelerating the heart rate. It mildly constricted peripheral blood vessels, raised arterial pressure, while dilating visceral blood vessels and increasing blood flow. It increased glomerular filtration rate, thereby promoting greater urine output and sodium excretion. It could improve peripheral circulation and significantly increase urine output, while having no significant effect on heart rate. This was where it outperformed other vasoconstrictors or vasodilators. Clinically, it could mainly be used for various types of shock.
In summary.
Dopamine was an important neurotransmitter that played an extremely important role in the brain.
The secretion of dopamine excited the brain and gave the human body a feeling of pleasure. It was the body's primary self-reward mechanism.
Getting a pentakill in a game, having a beautiful girlfriend, succeeding in one's career, becoming a billionaire, eating, drinking, whoring, gambling—any enjoyable or happy thing one could think of relied on dopamine's support.
Without dopamine, doing those things would bring no pleasure at all. You would lose the emotion known as "happiness."
Thus, dopamine's importance was plain to see.
A month ago, Zhang Ming had conceived of a Dopamine Mind Control Method, intending to use it to control his subordinates.
This control method could have been medicine, a Cultivation Method, or some special object.
But in the end, after various factors and [Ignite Comprehension]'s constant optimization, the result it selected was—
Not medicine, not a
