neurotransmitters
chemical messengers communicate between neurons across synapse
- stored at terminal of pre-synaptic neuron
- receptors on surface of post-synaptic neurons
- information transmitted electrically by action potentials along neurons by excitation or inhibition
- specific shapes of neurotransmitters and receptors
- process repeats
- specific shapes of neurotransmitters and receptors
- information transmitted electrically by action potentials along neurons by excitation or inhibition
- receptors on surface of post-synaptic neurons
- stored at terminal of pre-synaptic neuron
malfunctions at synapse associated with mental illness e.g. low levels of serotonin and depression
reuptake (taken back into neuron)
- Prozac is SSSRI and treatment for depression
