Describe how transmission of impulses across synapses can be controlled?
They can be controlled by neurotransmitter levels, function, and by pre- and postsynaptic receptors, as well as by their component messengers and intermediaries (such as cyclic AMP and others).
What has the author Terry Reisine written?
Terry Reisine has written: 'Molecular biology of neurotransmitter receptors' -- subject(s): Neurotransmitter receptors
The neurotransmitter used at cholinergic synapse is?
The neurotransmitter is called acetylcholine. Cholinergic receptors are of two kinds: nicotinic receptors, which are situated in striated muscles and muscarinic receptors, which are situated in parasympathetically innervated structures.
What determines whether a neurotransmitter will have an inhibitory excitatory effect?
How a neurotransmitter interacts with the receptors determines its effects. They activate receptors to perform specific functions in the body.the type of receptor
Where are the receptors for neurotransmitters located?
Receptors for the various neurotransmitters are located on both the presynaptic and postsynaptic nerve terminals of the neuron.
What determines the effect that a neurotransmitter has on the postsynaptic neuron?
the receptors on the postsynaptic membrane
The effect of a neurotransmitter on the postsynaptic cell occurs when the neurotransmitter?
binds to specific receptors on postsynaptic cell membrane
Describe how transmission of impulses across synapses can be controlled?
They can be controlled by neurotransmitter levels, function, and by pre- and postsynaptic receptors, as well as by their component messengers and intermediaries (such as cyclic AMP and others).
What is neurotransmitter implant?
Nuro transmitter is a substance that diffuses through the prism optic membrane and passes through the synoptic club and lastly deposited at the receptors present on the postsynaptic membrane
What are the 7 steps in neurotransmitter action?
1)snythesis, 2) storage in vesicles, 3) breakdown of any neurotransmitter leaking from the vesicles, 4) exocytosis, 5) inhibitory feedback via autoreceptors, 6) activation of postsynaptic receptors, and 7) deactivation.

Receptors for acetylcholine are located on the?
Acetylcholine receptors are located on the motor end plate or postsynaptic sarcolemma. Otto Loewi was a German pharmacologist whose discovery of acetylcholine earned the 1936 Nobel prize in Physiology or Medicine which he shared with Sir Henry Dale. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter. Neurotransmitters are chemicals that transmit signals from a neuron to a target cell across the synapse and most are synthesized at the nerve terminals.
When cholinergic receptors are stimulated they?
sodium ions enter the postsynaptic neuron.
How does curare cause muscle paralysis?
Curare is a competitive inhibitor of acetylcholine. It fights with acetycholine for postsynaptic receptors.
The neurotransmitter used at cholinergic synapse is?
The neurotransmitter is called acetylcholine. Cholinergic receptors are of two kinds: nicotinic receptors, which are situated in striated muscles and muscarinic receptors, which are situated in parasympathetically innervated structures.
What neurotransmitters bind to?
There are two receptors that neurotransmitters interact with: ligand-gated receptors or ionotropic receptors and G protein-coupled receptors or metabotropic receptors depending on the neurotransmitter (the ligand). When the ligand binds with the neurotransmitter receptor it causes a sequence of chemical reactions to relay signals.Brought to you by altogenlabs.com
