Pregnant women suffering from the common cold can be reassured about the safety of short-term use of OTC cold medications. These drugs, however, should not be used indiscriminately or for extended periods of time. In addition, use should be confined to only those products that are appropriate for the symptoms.
Acetylcholine (ACh) is a common neurotransmitter secreted by a variety of neurons. It binds to two different receptors-Ionotropic (fast) nicotinic receptors and metabotropic (slow) muscarinic receptors. 1  role in central nervous system. 2  role in peripheral nervous system. 3  receptors and signaling. 4  agonists and antagonists.
A neurotransmitter is a molecule that is released from a neuron to relay information to another cell. Neurotransmitter molecules are stored in membranous sacs called vesicles in the axon terminal. Each vesicle contains thousands of molecules of a given neurotransmitter.hen the neuron is stimulated, the electrical signal (action potential) travels down the axon to the axon terminals. When the electrical signal reaches the end of the axon, it triggers a series of chemical changes in the axon terminal.
