Title:	9.15 / 9.150 Biochemistry and Pharmacology of Synaptic Transmission, Fall 2003
Author:	Wurtman, Richard J., 1936-
Issue Date:	2003-12
Abstract:	Considers the process of neurotransmission, especially chemicals used in the brain and elsewhere to carry signals from nerve terminals to the structures they innervate. Focuses on monoamine transmitters (acetylcholine; serotonin; dopamine and norepinephrine); also examines amino acid and peptide transmitters and neuromodulators like adenosine. Macromolecules that mediate neurotransmitter synthesis, release, inactivation, and receptor-mediated actions are discussed, as well as factors that regulate their activity and the second-messenger systems they control. Alternate years.
