Dopamine Serotonin Thyroid

Meaning

Dopamine Serotonin Thyroid describes the complex, reciprocal relationship and regulatory interaction that exists between the thyroid hormone system and the fundamental monoamine neurotransmitters, Dopamine and Serotonin, within the central nervous system. Thyroid hormones, with T3 being the most influential, function as essential modulators of the synthesis, receptor sensitivity, and subsequent breakdown of these neurotransmitters, significantly impacting mood, motivation, and complex cognitive processing. Imbalances in one system frequently precipitate functional alterations in the others.
