  1. Postsynaptic Membrane Presynaptic Axon Terminal Terminal Button Dendritic Spine

  2. (1) Precursor Transport

  3. _ _ _ NT (2) Synthesis enzymes/cofactors

  4. (3) Storage in vesicles

  5. NT Vesicles Terminal Button Dendritic Spine Synapse

  6. (4) Release Terminal Button Dendritic Spine Synapse Receptors

  7. Terminal Button Dendritic Spine AP Synapse

  8. Exocytosis Ca2+

  9. (5) Activation

  10. Quantum release Each vesicle contains one quanta of neurotransmitter (approximately 5000 molecules) –quanta release

  11. (3) Transmitter Inactivation Reuptake by presynaptic terminal Uptake by glial cells Enzymatic degradation Presynaptic receptor Diffusion Combination of above

  12. (6) Termination

  13. (1) Termination by... Diffusion

  14. (2) Termination by... Enzymatic degradation

  15. (3) Termination by... • Reuptake by presynaptic terminal • Uptake by glial cells

  16. (4) Termination by... Autoreceptors A

  17. 2. Receptor Activation • NS uses 40 families , act on 100 types of receptors; cause EPSPs and IPSPs, • Neuromodulators cause, via 2nd messengers,more complex metabolic effects in the PSM. • Ionotropicchannel • directly controls channel • fast • Metabotropic channel • second messenger systems • receptor indirectly controls channel ~
