Neurotransmitters and Receptors

2022
This chapter describes the molecular basis of neurotransmitters and opioid and non-opioid receptors involved in the transmission of noxious stimuli. It also covers the mechanism of action of treatments that are used in pain management.

Inborn errors of neurotransmitter receptors

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 1999
AbstractInborn errors of neurotransmitter receptors are recently described gene mutations that directly affect receptor function. Currently three conditions are known to be caused by this mechanism: hyperekplexia; two forms of congenital inherited myasthenic syndromes; and autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy.

Neurotransmitters and Neurotransmitter Receptors in Depressed Suicide Victims

1989
Repeated antidepressant drug and electroshock administration to animals alters several classes of cortical neurotransmitter receptors.1 The role of these adaptive receptor changes in the therapeutic action of antidepressants and the possibility that altered receptors underlie the biological basis of depressive illness can be studied meaningfully only ...

Receptor Desensitization by Neurotransmitters in Membranes:  Are Neurotransmitters the Endogenous Anesthetics?

Biochemistry, 2003
A mechanism of anesthesia is proposed that addresses one of the most troubling peculiarities of general anesthesia: the remarkably small variability of sensitivity within the human population and across a broad range of animal phyla. It is hypothesized that in addition to the rapid, saturable binding of a neurotransmitter to its receptor that results ...
