Neurotransmitters in Human Physiology by Prasana is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Neurotransmitters are chemicals that transmit signals between neurons. There are several types including neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, hormones, and paracrine regulators. Neurotransmitters are released at synapses in response to electrical signals and bind to receptors on the postsynaptic cell, causing changes in cell function. Some examples of neurotransmitters are acetylcholine, amino acids, and peptides. Drugs can affect neurotransmitter systems by mimicking neurotransmitters, inhibiting their brea
