neurotransmitter
|
A molecule such as glutamate or acetylcholine that is released from an axon terminal (often by the arrival of an impulse), diffuses across a narrow extracellular space, and binds with a receptor on the surface of the postsynaptic cell. (These three parts are collectively called the synapse). Many dozens of neurotransmitters have been identified over the years, and a given axon terminal may release more than one kind.
