One of its primary transmission systems, the nigrostriatal system, governs the portion of the brain responsible for voluntary movements Its neurons are dysfunctional in cases of ADHD, and it is the neurotransmitter most affected by stimulants such as cocaine. For ten points, name this neurotransmitter, which is inextricably linked with movement, learning, the brain's reward center, drug addiction, and Parkinson's disease.
