Featured Neuroexcitation Mechanisms | ||
|---|---|---|
| Neurotransmitters | Browse Related Antibodies | Neurotransmitters are chemicals that carry signals from the presynaptic neuron, across the chemical synapse, to the postsynaptic neuron. |
| Reuptake and Vesicle Transporters | Browse Related Antibodies | The regulation of synaptic transmission depends upon manipulating the concentration and longevity of neurotransmitter in the synaptic cleft. |
| Postsynaptic Receptors | Browse Related Antibodies | The postsynaptic effect of neurotransmitter release from the presynaptic terminal depends on a specific protein receptor complex. |
| Broadly Distributed Receptors and Transporters | Browse Related Antibodies | Classical endocrine transmission and highly specialized neuronal synapses rely on the same basic components, including specific ligand release, receptor binding and ligand transporters. |
