What else can I help you with?
A neurotransmitter whose function depends on a second messenger is known as?
A neurotransmitter whose function depends on a second messenger is known as a neuromodulator. Neuromodulators can influence the behavior of neurons by affecting processes like signal transduction or synaptic transmission.
Could intelligence be primarily a matter of having plenty of the right neurotransmitter at the right synapses?
Optimal neurotransmitter function certainly would help a brain reach its full intellectual potential. However, neuronal connections are what hold the data of intelligence in the first place. However optimal neurotransmitter function encourages the new neuronal connections.
Why would a lack of neurotransmitter change the function of the brain?
Yes, signals would not pass between the nerve cells.
What is a molecule such as a neurotransmitter or a hormone that binds to a receptor called?
A molecule such as a neurotransmitter or hormone that binds to a receptor is called a ligand. This binding triggers a biological response in the target cell, influencing its function.
How do signal molecules change how a cell will function?
Signal molecules act as a neurotransmitter or a hormone, which both effect how a cell functions.
These lipid molecules may function as retrograde neurotransmitters and allow the postsynaptic neuron to decrease release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic neuron?
endocannabinoids
What is the medical term meaning neurotransmitter?
neurotransmitter
A chemical found in the synaptic vesicles that when released has an effect on the next cell is called a?
neurotransmitters
What are Neurotransmitter reuptake?
Reuptake, or re-uptake, is the reabsorption of a neurotransmitter by a neurotransmitter transporter of a pre-synaptic neuron after it has performed its function of transmitting a neural impulse.Reuptake is necessary for normal synaptic physiology because it allows for the recycling of neurotransmitters and regulates the level of neurotransmitter present in the synapse and controls how long a signal resulting from neurotransmitter release lasts. Because neurotransmitters are too large and hydrophilic to diffuse through the membrane, specific transport proteins are necessary for the reabsorption of neurotransmitters. Much research, both biochemical and structural, has been performed to obtain clues about the mechanism of reuptake.

What is the feel good neurotransmitter?
Dopamine are the feel good neurotransmitter.
What neurotransmitter acts as a natural opiate?
neurotransmitter are not a natural opite
