This research investigates the role of dopamine in motor learning by examining its effects on the motor cortex. Using advanced imaging techniques, it aims to clarify how dopamine influences skill acquisition and cortical plasticity.
Coordination, execution and learning of skilled movements strongly depend on motor cortex function, which, in turn, depends on the modulatory action of different neurotransmitters.
In particular, dopaminergic inputs to the motor cortex have been associated with synaptic plasticity, changes in cortical excitability and modulation of cortical motor maps.
The integrity of dopaminergic terminals is required for the acquisition of novel motor tasks, but not for the performance of already learned ones…
