By contrast, the post-synaptic plasma membrane has been viewed as a static structure, in which ion channels that function as receptors and transducers of the neurotransmitter signal are ...

This study presents solid evidence for distinct neurotransmitter release modalities between two subclasses of dopaminergic neurons in the olfactory bulb, highlighting an important finding that ...

Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental health disorder associated with persistent, intrusive thoughts (i.e., ...

Anorexia nervosa is a serious mental health condition, characterized by restricted eating, fear of weight gain, and insidious ...

These sacs spill their contents into the synapse, where the neurotransmitters then move across the gap toward the neighboring cells. These cells contain receptors where the neurotransmitters can ...

Neurotransmitters initiate their action when they bind to a receptor on their target cell. A receptor is a small protein that can attach to a specific chemical or hormone in the body. Receptors ...

The study carried out by Dr Marta Moreno-Rodríguez in the UPV/EHU group showed that the neurotransmitter receptors in the cannabinoid family and certain choline-containing lipids in the brain ...

New research found that individuals with anorexia nervosa have elevated opioid neurotransmitter activity, which may ...

In preliminary studies, we discovered that selected typical and atypical antipsychotic drugs interacted with virtually every biogenic amine receptor tested, in confirmation of many prior studies ...
