Physical exercise influences the central dopaminergic, noradrenergic and serotonergic systems. A number of studies have examined brain noradrenaline (norepinephrine), serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) and dopamine with exercise. Although there are great discrepancies in experimental protocols, the results indicate that there is evidence in favour of changes in synthesis and metabolism of monoamines during exercise.
There is a possibility that the interactions between brain neurotransmitters and their specific receptors could play a role in the onset of fatigue during prolonged exercise. The data on the effects of branched chain amino acid (BCAA) supplementation and ‘central fatigue’ seem to be conflicting, although recent studies suggest that BCAA supplementation has no influence on endurance performance.
There are numerous levels at which central neurotransmitters can …
