Document Summary
Basis of figuring out key to neuronal communication was chemical messages (nt) Same chemicals in the rest of the body slower than hormones. Neurotransmitter don"t go in the bind to recptor site - depolarize or hyperpolarize. How to identify criteria of becoming/called a neurotransmiters. Broke the neurotransmitter down in 3 groups ( How acetylcholine is formed how it"s broken down (from enzyme or protein) Rate limiting factor - can"t eat all the bananas (proteins that are available) Two types of receptors postsunaptic (properties of each) Metabatropic - g protein; second messengers; cascade effect. How neurotransmitter can have diffenrent effect depending on what system. Neurotransmitter how they are the power supply to brain; cell body"s in brain stem projects to the rest of the brain. Long term potentiation and how it works - mechanism. Predict the brain has undergone certain amount of development. Stem cells are the precursors to regenerator cells - neurablast class.
