Presynaptic inhibition is the opposite of?
Facilitation
What drug inhibits the reuptake of dopamine serotonin and norepinephrine into presynaptic axon terminals?
I believe they are stimulants.
What neurotransmitter does Prozac affect?
Prozac (fluoxetine) is an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor). It targets reuptake channels for the neurotransmitter serotonin, preventing serotonin from reentering the presynaptic neurons to be removed from the synaptic cleft, thus forcing an accumulation of serotonin and repeated triggering of the serotonin "signal" in the postsynaptic neurons.
What neurotransmitter does Zoloft affect?
The exact mechanism of Zoloft is unknown, but it is believed to increase the extracellular level of the neurotransmitter serotonin by limiting its reabsorption into the presynaptic cell.
What has the author Carolyn Louise Grayson written?
Carolyn Louise Grayson has written: 'The effects of octopamine and serotonin as short-term and long-term facilitation at the crayfish neuromuscular junction'
What is synaptic facilitation?
an action will happen cause of axo-axonal syanapse,which can facilitate the nerve impulse transmitting from presynaptic membrane to post synaptic membrane. In the axo-axonal synapse one axon is secreting serotonin which can influence to close some of K+ channels in the other neuron to maintain a prolonged action potential by slowing down the repolarization. as long as action potential is there it can stimulate the presynaptic membrane to release neurotransmitters towards postsyanptic membrane so prolonged action potential will help to stimulate more the Post synaptic membrane and give a strong impulse this is called presynaptic facilitation
Is paxil a ampheTAmine?
Chemicals like Paxil are in a class called SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). Basically, these drugs block the re-uptake of serotonin at the synaptic junction, so there is an overabundance of serotonin. Amphetamines tend to increase the amount of norepinephrine and dopamine at the synaptic junction, not through blocking the re-uptake (like cocaine) but by increasing the outflow from the presynaptic axon.
What is the past form of facilitation?
"Facilitation" is a noun, not a verb. Therefore it does not have a "past form".
What is The process by which the neurotransmitter substance leaves the presynaptic terminal button is called?
Leaves the presynaptic neuron, activates ion channel
What is an example of a presynaptic cell?
a neuron
What can an overabundance of serotonin do?
Overabundance of serotonin can cause serotonin syndrome.
What is the largest social facilitation ever used?
The theory of social facilitation has been used many times by a number of researchers. The biggest known experiment of social facilitation occurred with Yerkes Dowdson's experiment.
