Y1 - 2020 N1 - T2 - Essentials of Modern Neuroscience AB - ObjectivesAfter studying this chapter, the student should be able to:Diagram the synthesis, packaging, and degradation of acetylcholine (ACh).Distinguish the 2 types of ACh receptors and describe their mechanisms of action.Identify the main types and location of cholinergic neurons in the central and peripheral nervous systems.Illustrate the mechanisms of glutamate packaging, interconversion with glutamine, and glutamate uptake.Describe the different types of ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors and their modes of regulation and function.Identify the general types and locations of glutamatergic neurons.Diagram the synthesis, packaging, and uptake of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glycine.Identify the locations where GABAergic and glycinergic neurons function.Distinguish the types of ionotropic and metabotropic GABA receptors and the glycine receptor.Describe the mechanisms of GABA and glycine-mediated synaptic inhibition.Define glutamate excitotoxicity and the excitation/inhibition (E/I) ratio, and identify the importance of each.
