Q

co-transmission

A

usually the case

something other than the neurotransmitter is transported into the cell as well

Q

transport speed of neurotransmitters

A

very fast for glutamate and GABA, in milliseconds

slower, up to seconds for monoamines and neuropeptides

16
Q

vol me transmission

A

over larger distance
not via synapse
via puffs
binds to any matching receptors in diffusion distance

17
Q

examples volume transmission

A

dopamine in cortex

monoamine autoreceptors

18
Q

signal transduction cascade

A

presynaptic genome to posynaptic genome

19
Q

early and late genes

A

first and last to be activated

20
Q

two ways of transmission

A

G protein linked and ion channel linked

21
Q

G protein linked cascade

A

1st messenger: neurotransmitter

2nd: G protein
3rd: enzyme, phosphorylating something
4th: transcription factors

22
Q

ion channel linked system

A

1st messenger: neurotransmitter

2nd: outflowing calcium
3rd: enzyme
4th: transcription factors

23
Q

G protein and ion channel linked overlap

A

can lead to the same gene expression

24
Q

polymerase

A

opens DNA strand

25
Q

mRNA translation location

A

ribosomes in rough parts of endoplasmatic reticulum

26
Q

well-known early genes

A
cFos and cJun
make Fos and Jun 
act simultaneously
connect to FosJun protein
through Leucine zipper
are transcription factor for late genes
27
Q

2nd messengers in ion channel linked system

A

can change ion influx

continue or stop electrical impulses

28
Q

kinase and phospatase in earlier stages

A

can act as 1st 2nd or 3rd messengers as well

29
Q

G protein linked system enzymes

A

only kinases

30
Q

ion channel linked system enzymes

A

kinases and phosphatases
