What mimic or enhance the effects of a neurotransmitter on the receptor sites of the next cell increasing or decreasing the activity of that cell?
Agonists mimic or enhance the effects of neurotransmitters by binding to the receptor sites of the next cell and increasing the activity of that cell. Antagonists, on the other hand, block or inhibit the effects of neurotransmitters, resulting in decreased activity of the cell.
What neurotransmitter does caffeine mimic?

Abuse of what have been linked to the neurotransmitter dopamine?
Abuse of substances such as cocaine, amphetamines, and heroin have been linked to the neurotransmitter dopamine. These substances can increase dopamine levels in the brain, leading to feelings of euphoria and reinforcing the cycle of abuse.
