ATP ‐ a fast neurotransmitter [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1993 ATP receptor‐mediated responses in peripheral and central neurones have many characteristics which suggest that ATP may act as a fast neurotransmitter. While the receptors underlying these responses have properties which are similar to other ligand‐gated ion channels which mediate fast neurotransmision, the nature of their calcium permeability and the ...

Total ganglioside ablation at mouse motor nerve terminals alters neurotransmitter release level [PDF]
, 2010 Neuronal membrane gangliosides, forming a large family of sialylated glycosphingolipids, have been hypothesized to play important roles in synaptic transmission.

Sargassum horneri Extract Attenuates Depressive-like Behaviors in Mice Treated with Stress Hormone
Antioxidants, 2023 Sargassum horneri, a brown seaweed, is known for its various health benefits; however, there are no reports on its effects on depression. This study aimed to investigate the antidepressant effects of S. horneri ethanol extract (SHE) in mice injected with

Roles of Beta2- and Beta3-Adrenoceptor Polymorphisms in Hypertension and Metabolic Syndrome
International Journal of Hypertension, 2010 Hypertension, diabetes mellitus (especially type 2 diabetes mellitus), metabolic syndrome and obesity are rapidly growing public health problems. Sympathetic nerve activation is observed in obesity, hypertension and diabetes mellitus, which have strong ...

Neurotransmitters and Neuromodulators [PDF]
Acta geneticae medicae et gemellologiae, 1974 In the central nervous system, besides the neurotransmitters, the occurrence of substances which modify neuronal excitability has been proposed. Since their effect is a matter of modulating neuronal responsiveness, these substances may be called neuromodulators.Examples of neurotransmitters or putative neurotransmitters in the central nervous system ...

Relationships of Adrenoceptor Polymorphisms with Obesity
Journal of Obesity, 2011 Obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes are rapidly growing public health problems. Heightened sympathetic nerve activity is a well-established observation in obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes.

Serotonin, how to find it... [PDF]
, 2013 Serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a monoamine neurotransmitter. Biochemically derived from tryptophan, serotonin is primarily found in the gastrointestinal tract, platelets, and in the central nervous system (CNS) of animals, including humans ...

Single-Cell Transcriptomic Reveals Dual and Multi-Transmitter Use in Neurons Across Metazoans
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021 Neurotransmitter expression is widely used as a criterion for classifying neurons. It was initially thought that neurons express a single type of neurotransmitter, a phenomenon commonly recognized as Dale's principle: “one neuron, one transmitter ...

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1973 SummaryStimulation of the cardioaccelerator nerve (CA) in the isolated chicken heart causes the release of norepinephrine and little epinephrine and increases heart rate significantly, but after beta blockade heart rate was depressed indicating the release of cholinergic agent which could be blocked with atropine.
