8. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter (chemical messenger) between nerve cells. Deficiency of
dopamine results in Parkinson's disease. Administration of dopamine does not stop the
symptoms of this disease because dopamine in the blood cannot cross the blood-brain
barrier. The drug Dopa, however, does give relief from Parkinson's symptoms. It can pass
through the blood brain barrier and is converted by enzymes inside brain cells to dopamine:
