What is the fate of the neutotransmitter after its release from the vesicles in the presynaptic neuron?

Noradrenaline or nor-epinephrine released in post ganglionic sympathetic nerve endings is taken up back by the nerves producing it. While acetyl choline secreted by preganglionic nerves and post ganglionic parasympathetic fibres are destroyed by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, in milliseconds.


Are nerve fibers in ascending tracts myelinated?

If I was paying attention in med school, I think... The pre-ganglionic fibers are myelinated and the post-ganglionic are unmyelinated. This is in reference to the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.


What hormone is released from stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system?

Anatomically, the adrenal medulla develops from neural crest tissue, and it is directly controlled by sympathetic NS. The medullary cells respond to this stimulation by releasing epineprhrine (80%) or norepinephrine (20%), which can act in conjunction with the sympathetic NS to elicit the fight-or-flight response to stressors.epinephrine, from the adrenal medulla.Norepinephrine/Noradrenaline working with Epinephrine/Adrenalineepinephrine and norepinephrine


Difference between parasympathetic and enteric nervous systems?

There really is no difference between these two levels of classification of the nervous system, but rather the parasympathetic and enteric division of the nervous system work with the sympathetic division to control smooth muscles, cardiac muscles, and glands in the body. They are both components of the autonomic nervous system.


Where are post ganglionic neurons cell bodies located?

Postganglionic neuron cell body lies outside the CNS in an autonomic ganglion

Do the post-ganglionic sympathetic fibers release acetylcholine?

No, post-ganglionic sympathetic fibers mostly release norepinephrine. But they do release some ACh to the sweat glands, which causes concurrent vasodilation of surrounding blood vessels (paired with release of bradykinin from sweat glands).

Which release norepinephrine?

The answer is sympathetic post-ganglionic axon

Which nerves release acetylcholine and adrenaline?

ALL pre- and post-ganglionic parasympathetic nerve cells PRE-ganglionic sympathetic nerve cells POST-ganglionic sympathetic nerve cells to sweat glands ONLY


Which division as short pre ganglionic axon and long post ganglionic axon?

sympathetic division


What is neurotransmitter of the sympathetic nervous system?

acytelcholine in pre-ganglionic neurons, norepinephrine in most post-ganglionic neurons.

What is m-cholinomimetics?

they stimulate the action of ACh at post ganglionic muscarinic receptors.


Gray rami communicantes connect to what two structures?

White rami communicantes (sing. ramus communicans) are literally white branches of communication between each spinal nerve and the sympathetic trunk. Their color is white because these lines of communication contain mainly myelinated nerve fibers of pre-ganglionic general visceral efferents from the spinal cord. Many of the pre-ganglionic nerve fibers synapse at the corresponding spinal segment level, and thus build a sympathetic ganglion at that level. Other pre-ganglionic white fibers either ascend or descend in the sympathetic trunk before synapsing in sympathetic ganglia above or below the spinal segment of origin. The sympathetic ganglia are literally knots in the sympathetic cord primarily containing cell bodies of the post-ganglionic neurons, whose axons are unmyelinated and gray in color. These unmyelinated post-ganglionic nerve fibers rejoin the spinal nerve at that level via the gray rami communicantes,as well as ascending or descending to adjacent levels. The white rami may also contain lightly myelinated sympathetic afferents whose cell bodies in the dorsal root ganglia synapse in the dorsal horn gray of the spinal cord. ANSWER: Carry preganglionic axons to the sympathetic chain


Which neuro transmitter released from ganglionic of the parasympathetic division?

Nor-adrenaline is secreted at post ganglionic sympathetic synapses. There is re-uptake of Nor-adrenaline by nerve ending and only partially destroyed there by the enzyme C.O.M.T. There is no enzyme like acetylcholinesterase present there as in post ganglionic parasympathetic synapse to destroy the acetylcholine.
