The 2 divisions of the autonomic nervous system (sympathetic and parasympathetic) both have 2 areas where neurotransmitter is released. ?They have ganglionic synapses in the periphery wherein neurotransmitter is released and have synapses on the target organs wherein neurotransmitter is released. ?So this means there is preganglionic and postganglionic release of neurotransmitter.Sympathetic preganglionic neurotransmitter is Acetylcholine. ?Acetylcholine affects muscarinic receptors here.Sympathetic postganglionic neurotransmitter is Norepinephrine. ?Norepinephrine affects alpha or beta receptors here. ?Parasympathetic preganglionic neurotransmitter is Acetylcholine. ? Acetylcholine affects muscarinic receptors here.Parasympathetic postganglionic neurotransmitter is Acetylcholine. ?In this case Acetylcholine affects muscarinic receptors.?Sympathetic neurons are considered to be adrenergic & sympathetic neurons are considered to be cholinergic.
