Neuronal communication is therefore envisioned as the means of causing neurons to fire action potentials. A simplistic view is that such communication is the job of neurotransmission. However, neuromodulation plays just as direct a role in communicating such information.
Neuromodulation is the physiological process by which a given neuron uses one or more chemicals to regulate diverse populations of neurons. Neuromodulators typically bind to metabotropic, G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) to initiate a second messenger signaling cascade that induces a broad, long-lasting signal.
May 26, 2021 · Communication behaviors can vary over a wide range of timescales, from milliseconds to the lifespan of the animal. Processes such as circuit remodeling, changes in gene expression, and altered neuronal and synaptic function can produce behavioral flexibility.
Describe how neurons communicate with each other. Explain how drugs act as agonists or antagonists for a given neurotransmitter system.
Dec 1, 2014 · Neuromodulators modify synaptic communication through a number of mechanisms which can be broadly divided into effects that target synapses directly and those that indirectly modify synaptic interactions by changing the excitability of neurons.
