Retinal neurotransmission

Survey of Ophthalmology, 1985
The mammalian retina is classically divided into ten layers which contain the neuronal elements identified as photoreceptors, horizontal cells, bipolar cells, amacrine cells and ganglion cells. Using various neuroscientific techniques possible neurotransmitter substances have been assigned to each of these cell types.

Neurotransmission in the Human Labyrinth

2002
Different neuroactive substances have been found in the efferent pathways of both the olivocochlear and vestibular systems. In the present study, the distribution and role of three neurotransmitters, choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA), and enkephalin were investigated in the human labyrinth of 4 normal-hearing individuals.

Neuropeptides and Neurotransmission

2020
Over the past four decades, many neuropeptides, that is, 3–100 amino-acid-long polypeptides, have been identified in the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system which can act on either neural substrates such as neurons and glial cells or other target cells.

Glutamatergic Neurotransmission

2012
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on glutamatergic neurotransmission and its synthesis and vesicular release. Glutamate mediates essentially all rapid excitatory signaling in the mammalian CNS. This excitatory signaling is counterbalanced by GABA- or glycine-mediated inhibition. In considering glutamate as a neurotransmitter, it may be helpful to

Modulatory effects of cannabinoids on brain neurotransmission

European Journal of Neuroscience, 2019
Recreational and chronic cannabis use has been associated with a range of acute and chronic effects including; anti‐nociceptive actions, anxiety, depression, psychotic symptoms and neurocognitive impairments.

Energy for Neurotransmission

Science, 1999
In their Perspective, P. J. Magistretti et al . ([1][1]) propose that 80 to 90% of total cortical glucose usage is attributable to the energy requirements of glutamatergic neurotransmission.

Noradrenergic Neurotransmission

2004
Publisher Summary Sympathoneural norepinephrine (NE) satisfies the main criteria defining a neurotransmitter: a chemical released from nerve terminals by electrical action potentials that interacts with specific receptors on nearby structures to produce specific physiologic responses. Different stressors can elicit different patterns of sympathoneural

Nicotine and sympathetic neurotransmission

Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 1997
Nicotine increases heart rate, myocardial contractility, and blood pressure. These nicotine-induced cardiovascular effects are mainly due to stimulation of sympathetic neurotransmission, as nicotine stimulates catecholamine release by an activation of nicotine acetylcholine receptors localized on peripheral postganglionic sympathetic nerve endings and ...

Cardiac Neurotransmission Imaging

2010
Cardiac neurotransmission imaging with SPECT and PET allows in vivo assessment of presynaptic reuptake and neurotransmitter storage as well as of regional distribution and activity of postsynaptic receptors. In this way, the biochemical processes that occur during neurotransmission can be investigated in vivo at a micromolar level using radiolabeled ...
