Glutamic acid (glutamate) is probably the most abundant excitatory transmitter. Others can be excitatory, such as acetylcholine, and some peptides. Aspartate is also excitatory. Finally, serotonin is often found to be exctitatory.

What is excitatory messages?

There are two kinds of neurotransmitters - INHIBITORY and EXCITATORY. Excitatory neurotransmitters are not necessarily exciting - they are what stimulate the brain. Those that calm the brain and help create balance are called inhibitory. Inhibitory neurotransmitters balance mood and are easily depleted when the excitatory neurotransmitters are overactive.

Do all excitatory neurotransmitters have the same effect on organs?

No, not all excitatory neurotransmitters have the same effect on organs. Excitatory neurotransmitters can have specific functions and effects on different organs and systems in the body depending on their receptor types and distribution. For example, glutamate and acetylcholine are excitatory neurotransmitters with distinct roles in the nervous system and organs.

What neurotransmitter is always excitatory?

Glutamate is the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It enhances the transmission of signals between neurons by promoting the depolarization of postsynaptic neurons.


Is the determination of whether a synapse is excitatory or inhibitory based on what factor?

The determination of whether a synapse is excitatory or inhibitory is based on the type of neurotransmitter released at the synapse. Excitatory synapses release neurotransmitters that promote the firing of the receiving neuron, while inhibitory synapses release neurotransmitters that prevent the firing of the receiving neuron.
