27
How does dopamine control affect movement?
D2 explanation: In the D2 pathway, the motor cortex also excites the putamen, but dopamine binds to D2 receptors, which inhibits the GABAergic neurons that would normally inhibit the external segment of the globus pallidus (GPe). As a result, the GPe becomes more active and sends stronger inhibitory signals to the subthalamic nucleus (STN). This inhibits the STN, leading to reduced excitation of the GPi. With less input from the STN, the GPi becomes less active, reducing its inhibition of the thalamus. This disinhibits the thalamus, allowing it to activate the motor cortex and promote movement. So, although the indirect pathway is generally movement-suppressing, dopamine reverses that, helping facilitate movement.
(So without dopamine, the indirect pathway suppresses movement, especially unwanted or competing movements. with dopamine, it facilitates it)
