Dopamine signaling is essential for regulating movement, learning, and reward processing, and its dysregulation has been implicated in neuropsychiatric conditions such as ADHD and substance use disorder. ADGRL3, an adhesion G protein-coupled receptor enriched in the brain, has been genetically linked to these disorders, and Adgrl3 knockout in animals alters expression of dopaminergic markers and impacts dopamine-related behaviors. However, how ADGRL3 influences dopamine dynamics remains poorly…
