Neurotransmitters of the Nervous System-Characterization and Methodological Approaches to the Study Using Monoclonal Antibodies

A mediator is a physiologically active substance found in a nerve cell in a bound form, which is secreted from an excited nerve ending into the synaptic cleft and specifically acts on the receptors of the postsynaptic target cell. When a neurological stimulus reaches the end of a nerve fiber, neurotransmitters are produced, and by diffusing across the synapse, they cause the impulse to be transferred to another nerve fiber, a muscle fiber, or some other component. CNS comprises neurotransmitter indicators in the form of genes and proteins that are expressed uniquely in various cells. The major neurotransmitter indicators’ neurological, developmental, and pathological functions are demonstrated in this article.
