I don't have to keep saying nigrostriatal and mesocortical.

我不必一直说黑纹状体和中。

Dopamine itself can't cross the blood-brain barrier, but its precursor levodopa can, and once in the brain, levodopa is converted to dopamine by dopa decarboxylase, most importantly within the remaining nigrostriatal neurons.

巴胺本身不能通血脑屏障，但它的前体巴可以，一旦进入脑中，巴就会被巴脱羧酶转换为巴胺，尤其是在残存的黑纹状体经元内。
