Neurochemistry is the branch of neuroscience concerned with the study of neurochemicals, which are organic molecules that participate in neural activity. Oxytocin, serotonin, dopamine, glutamate, neurotransmitters and neurotransmitter-regulating substances are some examples of neurochemicals. Oxytocin plays an important role in controlling the maternal behavior. Hypothalamus is the reservoir of oxytocin from where it is transported to the posterior lobe of the pituitary. Finally, it is released into the blood stream, which transports it to the target tissues such as the mammary glands. Dopamine is a common neurotransmitter that is involved in the functioning of the limbic system, which is responsible for emotional function and control. Serotonin is a neurochemical that plays a regulatory role in several areas, such as mood and sleep. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of neurochemistry. It aims to serve as a resource guide for students and experts alike and contribute to the growth of the discipline.
