Attentionin
Attentionin is a hypothetical neurotransmitter that has been proposed to play a role in cognitive attention. The concept of attentionin emerged from research attempting to understand the neurochemical basis of attention, particularly the sustained focus and selective processing of information. While direct isolation and confirmation of attentionin as a distinct molecular entity remain elusive, the theoretical framework it represents has influenced research in neuroscience and psychology.
The proposed function of attentionin involves modulating neural circuits associated with attentional networks in the brain.
Research into attentionin has primarily been indirect, often focusing on the effects of various pharmacological agents
