Full Description
This exam centers on the molecular mechanisms that govern neurotransmission. Candidates will analyze the biochemical processes involved in neurotransmitter release and receptor activation.
Understanding these mechanisms is essential for elucidating how neurotransmission affects behavior and cognition. Such knowledge has significant implications for drug development and therapeutic interventions targeting neurotransmitter systems.
Students will demonstrate their ability to verbally discuss the processes of neurotransmitter synthesis, release, receptor interaction, and the significance of second messengers in cellular signaling.
A thorough grasp of latest research findings can assist candidates in providing relevant examples of neurotransmission anomalies and their behavioral consequences.
Sample Questions
- What are the steps involved in neurotransmitter release?
- How do second messengers influence neurotransmitter signaling?
