Neurotransmitters are chemicalagents secreted at the end of axons
of nerve cells that diffuse across the
synaptic gap and transmit information
to adjoining cells such as neurons,muscle cells, and glands, by altering
their electrical state or activity.

A fast-acting ion-channel controlled receptor
(nicotinic)
A slow-acting receptor that acts through a
G-protein that stimulates second-messengersto indirectly open ion-channels (muscarinic)
