This explainer outlines how neurons and glial cells coordinate electrical and chemical signals to form complex brain networks ...

This balance keeps you healthy. Neurotransmitters are small molecules that regulate the nervous system. Your body is always balancing neurotransmitter action to help you survive—and any ...

Neurotransmitters are biological molecules that are secreted by neurons and that alter the behaviour of their target neurons or effector cells. GABAB receptors contribute to complex inhibition ...

Between impulses the transmitter molecules are rapidly removed from ... There are two types of removal: Re-uptake – the neurotransmitter is reabsorbed back into the presynaptic neuron and ...

SV2A is an emerging target in neurological diseases, a poorly understood transmembrane glycoprotein that is thought to play a role in regulating the release of neurotransmitter molecules from neurons.

they show how many molecules bind to the dopamine transporter (DAT). This protein is in charge of recovering dopamine once it has performed its function to maintain the neurotransmitter at normal ...
