An autoreceptor is a receptor located on presynaptic nerve cell terminals and serves as a part of a feedback loop in signal transduction. It is sensitive only to those neurotransmitters or hormones, that are released by the neuron in whose membrane the autoreceptor sits. Canonically, a presynaptic neuron releases the neurotransmitter across a synaptic cleft to be detected by the receptors on a postsynaptic neuron. An autoreceptor will detect this neurotransmitter from its position on the presynaptic membrane.
