Difference between Dopamine and Pain

Dopamine vs. Pain

Dopamine (DA, a contraction of 3,4-dihydroxyphenethylamine) is an organic chemical of the catecholamine and phenethylamine families that plays several important roles in the brain and body. Pain is a distressing feeling often caused by intense or damaging stimuli.

Similarities between Dopamine and Pain

Dopamine and Pain have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Action potential, Drosophila melanogaster, Fibromyalgia, Idiopathic disease, Neuromodulation, Neuron, Opioid, Thalamus, Working memory.

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Thalamus

The thalamus (from Greek θάλαμος, "chamber") is the large mass of gray matter in the dorsal part of the diencephalon of the brain with several functions such as relaying of sensory signals, including motor signals, to the cerebral cortex, and the regulation of consciousness, sleep, and alertness.
