Neurotransmitters

Chemicals that transmit signals across a synapse from one neuron to another in the brain and nervous system.

Autoreceptors

Presynaptic Side

The part of a synapse that releases neurotransmitters from the axon terminal of a neuron into the synaptic cleft, initiating a neural signal.
