Neurotransmitter

Neurotransmitters are chemicals that are used to relay, amplify and modulate electrical signals between a neuron and another cell.

Neurotransmitters are broadly classified into small-molecule transmitters and neuroactive peptides.

Neurotransmitters and Receptors
Neurotransmitters are usually small molecules, such as amino acids (e.g, glutamate and aspartate) and amines (e.g., dopamine, serotonin, and histamine).

Neurotransmitters tend to be small molecules, some are even hormones. The time for neurotransmitter action is between 0,5 and 1 millisecond.

neurotransmitter - small signaling molecule secreted by the presynaptic nerve cell at a

(Neurotransmitters are chemicals that act in a paracrine fashion.)
The junction between the axon terminals of a neuron and the receiving cell is called a synapse.

A chemical neurotransmitter that is released from the ends of certain types of nerve fibre when they are stimulated. It transmits a signal to an adjacent nerve or muscle cell by binding to receptors on the target cell surface.

Based on radioligand binding studies, it has long been assumed that the neurochemical pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) does not involve widespread changes in post-synaptic neurotransmitter function.

Endorphins stimulate activity of the neurotransmitter dopamine after initially activating opioid receptors earlier in the nervous circuit. Increased dopamine activity is often met by a decrease in the number of receptors sensitive to dopamine.

neurotransmitter A low molecular weight compound (usually containing nitrogen) secreted from the terminal of one neuron and bound by a specific receptor in the next neuron in order to transmit a nerve impulse.

acetylcholinesterase (AChE) - an enzyme that catalyzes hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into acetate and choline. Expression of AChE can serve as a marker of skeletal muscle differentiation.

the locus where one neuron communicates with another neuron in a neural pathway; a narrow gap between a synaptic terminal of an axon and a signal-receiving portion (dendrite or cell body) of another neuron or effector cell. Neurotransmitters released ...
