Preferred term

neurotransmitters  

Definition(s)

  • Neurotransmitters are genes that promote or inhibit the release and transmission of electrical impulses between a neuron and other cells. These chemicals include around 10 “small-molecule neurotransmitters” (e.g., acetylcholine, dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin) and over 50 neuropeptides (such as neuropeptide Y [NPY] and agouti-related protein [AgRP]), and are related to the control of a subject's physiological processes.
