In recent years, many studies have found that the dopaminergic system involves in inflammatory diseases, particularly neuroinflammatory diseases development; This review summarizes the studies of dopaminergic system in inflammatory diseases, and specifically highlights the mechanisms of how dopaminergic system regulates inflammation; In addition, we speculate that there are some cavities in current research, including mixed usage of inhibitors, agonists and lack of systematic controls; We expect this review would provide directions to future research of dopaminergic system and inflammatory diseases.
