Abstract

When a neurological stimulus reaches the end of a nerve fiber, neurotransmitters are produced, and by diffusing across the synapse, they cause the impulse to be transferred to another nerve fiber, a muscle fiber, or some other component. CNS comprises neurotransmitter indicators in the form of genes and proteins that are expressed uniquely in various cells. The major neurotransmitter indicators' neurological, developmental, and pathological functions are demonstrated in this article.
