What do you think the effect of breaking down acetylcholine is on muscle contraction?
Breaking down acetylcholine can lead to muscle relaxation because acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that stimulates muscle contraction. When acetylcholine is broken down, the signal for muscle contraction is reduced, resulting in muscle relaxation.
What are the names of some common neurotransmitters?
Acetylcholine or aka ACH is the neurotransmitter that is released from the axon terminal to through the neuromuscular junction across the synaptic cleft which binds to the ACH receptors on the end motor plate of the Sarcolema.
Synaptic vesicles in the axon terminal of a motor neuron contain what neurotransmitter?
Synaptic vesicles store neurotransmitters to be released into the synapses. In the case of most motoneurons, this neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (ACh). The neurons that interface with the sympathetic nervous system, also technically motoneurons, release norepinephrine.
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.
Acetylcholine is an example of what neurotransmitter?
Acetylcholine is an example of a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in functions such as muscle movement, memory, and learning. It is released at neuromuscular junctions and in the brain to help facilitate communication between nerve cells.
Neurotransmitter released at the ends of some nerve cells?
The neurotransmitter released at the ends of some nerve cells is typically either acetylcholine or one of the monoamine neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, or norepinephrine. These neurotransmitters play a crucial role in transmitting signals between neurons in the nervous system.
Is citalopram an maoi?
No, it is not a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI).
What is an example of acetylcholine?
acetylcholine
What is the main neurotransmitter of the parasympathetic autonomic nervous system?
Parasympathetic system has acetylcholine as its chemical mediator.
What neurotransmitter is found at the synapse between nerves and human skeletal muscle cells?
Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter at the neuromuscular junction.
What are the two excitatory neurotransmitters?
acetylcholine
Which is a monoamine a. insulin b. epine.phrine c. testosterone d. parathyroid hormone?
The monoamine in the given options is b. epinephrine. It is a type of monoamine that acts as a neurotransmitter and hormone in the body, helping to regulate the "fight or flight" response.
What chemical stimulates muscle contraction?
acetylcholine (ACh)
What is an monoamine oxidase inhibitor?
A drug that inhibits the absorption of the enzyme monoamine oxidase. This is an addition to the above-mentioned answer. To be more specific, monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOIs) is an antidepressant which indirectly inhibits the degradations of monoamine by directly inhibiting the enzyme responsible for this degradation process (that enzyme is monoamine oxidase).
What are monoamine oxidase inhibitors used for?
things
Is histamine a diamine or monoamine?
Histamine is classified as a monoamine versus a diamine. There are other types on monoamines including serotonin, epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine, and melatonin.
What type of excitatory neurotransmitter is secreted by motor neurons innervating skeletal muscle?
Acetylcholine is the excitatory neurotransmitter released by neurons innervating skeletal muscles. Acetylcholine release stimulates muscle contraction by acting at the nicotinic-acetylcholine receptor on the surface of the muscle cell.
